Export Tool to Convert Xerox RDO Files to Open Digital Library Format

Has your institution created digital image files using the proprietary Xerox Documents on Demand software that generates Raster Document Objects (RDOs) to store structural metadata? Cornell University is seeking feedback from these institutions to determine what demand there would be for freeware to convert those RDOs for use in other metadata applications. Cornell has used the RDO2CDL export tool to migrate RDOs to ASCII metadata files that recreate the logical and physical structure format of the RDO but in an open, and defined manner, the Cornell Digital Library format (CDL). If your institution is interested in utilizing such an Export Tool, please send contact information and a brief description of your needs to: Anne R. Kenney (mailto:ark3@cornell.edu).
