Carlo>Did you try the Oxford text archive, http://ota.ahds.ac.uk/ ? What they call XML is TEI, 2506 of them. I have seen many more from other sources. I tried exercising TEI as a "master format" by downloading one of their texts "at random" in one of their choices of output file format, namely EPUB. The result was completely garbage, with some elements fix-sized needlessly to about 10X the size of my 20" computer screen. The body text was in an extraordinarily ugly font, and everything ran together with little or no apparent attempt to do *any* kind of sensible formatting. And you point about using TEI as a "master format" was what ???
