{A case study: Typesetting old documents of Japan}
{Ken Nakano \& Hajime Kobayashi}
{Shiryo Hensan-jo (the Historiographical Institute, \acro{HI}), the
University of Tokyo, is a major center of Japanese historical research.
The \acro{HI} makes historical sources available through its library,
publications and databases.

Livretech helped them develop the typesetting system and databases for
the old documents of Japan.  These documents have more difficulties than
ordinary Japanese books:

%\begin{itemize}
\item many varieties of characters such as \textit{seiji}
(proper\slash correct characters) and sanskrit;
\item various editorial notes such as headnote, one-liner note, inline
note, line spacing note before line and after line;
\item page-breakable family tree.
%\end{itemize}

In this presentation, I will talk about how we approached these topics.}
