[EP-tech] Submitting metadata & PDF to ProQuest UMI

Hi all,

We used to send our printed dissertations to ProQuest, who scans them to
PDF and add them to the database.
This is not possible anymore because we publish electronically on eprints.

The Library and Archives Canada seems to suggest that we send our
electronic theses to ProQuest now, but what requirements they have : we
need to ftp metadata according to UMI Dissertation Publishing XML DTD, and
PDF files with special labels and all embedded fonts.

Has anyone do this ? Can you tell us how you proceeded ?

Thank you !
