Dundurn Press

"For Alt-text, the unique DPS production system allows everyone involved in this essential component of Accessible ePub (authors, editors, designers and production staff) to seamlessly contribute to the final product."

T. McIlroy

The Future of Publishing

"As an educational institution, we produce learning materials for a diverse group of learners, so we elected to add certified Accessibility to our ebooks.

Our books are complex and graphically challenging, which makes the ebook conversion process more intensive. The team at desLibris is always responsive, helping ensure we meet our deadlines, even with multiple rounds of review.

The DPS web interface is helpful, as it allows us to submit our own files when ready, and to organize multiple titles and editions. We have been very pleased with the overall experience."

V. Marshall

UBC Sauder School of Business

“DPS has been an invaluable partner on our Accessibility journey. The ATAR remediation system in particular is equally useful for adding alt text to new titles and legacy files. The responsiveness of DPS staff is critical for us in learning to navigate the new and complex accessible landscape.”

H. O'Sullivan

“For the past several years, we have relied on DPS for prompt and accurate service to convert our journal to the other formats we need to increase our digital distribution of the magazine.”

This progressive publisher has used DPS for a headstart with Benetech certification, which was gained through eBound's program in 2021.

Poetry Configuration

Creating an ePub file for poetry is about balancing the need for specific visual layout with the flexibility and interactivity of the digital format. requiring maintenance of line breaks, spacing, stanza structure, and special typography/layout.

Alternative Pages for Poetry

Backlist Conversion

Kobo has used DPS for production of its new line of classics.

Upgrading to Accessibility

Over the past 15 years, NSP has converted its entire in-print list to EPUB with DPS, and has recently undertaken a retrospective Accessibility program. Drawing source files from the 500+ titles in its DPS catalogue, the A++ service will simplify the process and reduce cost and overhead.

Learning by Example

This leading Canadian publisher used DPS services for its first ventures into Accessible ePUB. After gaining the necessary experience, they moved the process inhouse after achieving Benetech certification.

ATAR Candidate?

MQUP has been producing reflowable ePUB2 for worldwide distribution for years, but has not yet added Accessibility to its titles. When the time comes, the move could be economically accomplished with ePub upgrades and ATAR services.

Course Manual Production

The demanding requirements of accessible textbook production for heavily-graphic material have been met by DPS for Sauder's line of Real Estate course manuals.
