About us
Specialists in digital typographic composition
Macomti is a company specialized in digital typographic composition for Spanish-language scientific journals and academic documents. From a single manuscript we produce, synchronized and on open technology, <strong>every format a publication needs</strong> —PDF/A, JATS XML and accessible HTML— with no manual reconversions and no closed-license costs. We focus only on typographic composition and multi-format export, not on editorial content work.

The production core
Design, system and delivery — in one flow
We don't deliver loose PDFs: we build the system that composes your journal the same way, issue after issue.
ConTeXt template
The design encoded in a .tex template your journal keeps and reuses. The same source exports to PDF/A, JATS XML and HTML.
Multi-format production
Each issue ready for print, web and indexing: PDF/A<sup class='fn-ref'>1</sup> for archival, JATS XML for SciELO/DOAJ/Crossref and accessible WCAG 2.1 HTML.
The difference
Single-source publishing
One manuscript goes in; out come, synchronized and without manual reconversions, every format the journal needs to publish, archive and index.

Why choose us
Expert, responsible and close
Four reasons journals trust their production to Macomti.
Expert
We compose on editorial tradition (Bringhurst, Hochuli, Felici) and master the scientific standards —JATS XML, PDF/A, WCAG and CSL—. We don't improvise: every typographic decision has a reason.
Responsible
Clear written scope, defined and met deadlines, and confidentiality for embargoed manuscripts. Reproducible flows: the same inputs always produce the same result.
High quality
Composition compliant with international standards and reviewed piece by piece. Every page we deliver is, in itself, a sample of our work.
Personalized service
You talk directly to the person composing your journal. Bilingual Spanish/English support, tailored proposals and guidance on every issue.
Scope of service
Typesetting, not content editing
We work the content exactly as the client delivers it. Editorial responsibility —text, citations, accuracy— stays with the journal or author. That precise scope protects your timeline and budget.
