PDM: XML Tagging Contact, 703–358–1730
1. Prepare Microsoft Word document using the “EDITORIAL GUIDELINES FOR XML-CODED FEDERAL REGISTER DOCUMENTS” in Exhibit 3.
2. Contact the PDM XML tagging contact as early as possible (as soon as you have a draft of your document, or at least 2 weeks ahead of your Federal Register due date) to set up a schedule for creating your coded document. Contacting PDM early in the process is especially important if you have a complex document (one with many tables or maps).
3. When you send the document to the Office of the Executive Secretariat for clearance:
4. PDM will e-mail the coded document back to you usually within a few days; the length of time it takes to code a document depends on workload, the priority of your action in relation to other actions, and the complexity of your document. (See section 2 above.)
PDM’s e-mail back to you will include two files: · A *.pdf of the 3-column version (which you can open and read), and · A *.txt version that has the codes (this is the XML-coded document; you can open it in Word, but you will see all of the codes in the text).
5. Review the *.pdf (3-column) version to make sure it translated correctly. If you need to make corrections, let PDM know as soon as possible. PDM will re-do the 3-column version and the *.txt version.
6. What to send to Federal Register:
