Overview

ISO/IEC 8613-1:1994/Cor 1:1998 is Technical Corrigendum 1 to Part 1 of the Open Document Architecture (ODA) and interchange format standard. It amends the original ISO/IEC 8613-1:1994 text by clarifying attribute definitions and data-type specifications used in ODA’s introduction and general principles. The corrigendum refines metadata vocabulary used for reliable document interchange and reproduction.

Key Topics

• Corrections to attribute lists: introduces the assured-reproduction-areas attribute inside document characteristics, with defined sub-parameters.
• Assured-reproduction-areas parameters:
  • #nominal-page-size - two integer values
  • #position - two integer values
  • #dimension - two integer values
• Protected part descriptors: the corrigendum inserts assured-reproduction-areas into the data-type specification for #sealed-doc-prof-information, placing it between colour-spaces-list and title.
• Clarification and interoperability: the edits are intended to reduce ambiguity in implementations of ODA containers, metadata handling, and presentation fidelity.
• References: aligns with related telecommunications recommendation ITU‑T Rec. T.411 (1993)/Cor.1 (1997), as cited in the corrigendum.

Applications

• Ensures consistent rendering and exchange of complex document layouts when using the Open Document Architecture (ODA) interchange format.
• Supports accurate page reproduction for printing and archival purposes by specifying nominal page sizes and guaranteed reproduction areas.
• Useful when creating or updating ODA-conformant document creation, conversion, viewer, or archival tools to handle corrected metadata fields.
• Enhances long-term preservation workflows where precise page layout and sealed/protected document descriptors are important.

Who Uses This Standard

• Software developers and architects building ODA readers, writers, converters, or document management systems.
• Digital archivists and records managers requiring precise reproduction metadata for archival preservation.
• Standards bodies and implementers ensuring interoperability between document interchange systems.
• Vendors of document processing and enterprise content management (ECM) solutions supporting legacy ODA content.

Related Standards

• ISO/IEC 8613 family (Open Document Architecture and interchange format)
• ITU‑T Recommendation T.411 (1993) and its corrigendum (1997) - referenced in the corrigendum text

Keywords: ISO/IEC 8613-1:1994/Cor 1:1998, Open Document Architecture, ODA, interchange format, technical corrigendum, assured reproduction areas, document metadata, document interchange, archival preservation.
