Research Articles in Simplified HTML (RASH) Framework includes a markup language defined as a subset of HTML+RDF for writing scientific articles, and related tools to convert it into different formats, to extract data from it, etc.
It would be good to identify a particular subset of RASH that can be used as it is for converting it in any other format without modifying the original document in any way. An example:
A formula is expressed by means of the element span with role "math" (i.e., enabling the LaTeX math environment within the RASH document), cannot be easily rendered in other non-LaTeX formats. Thus, a good normalisation here is to use only images even for expressing formulas – in this case we may miss some semantics, but we facilitate the conversion.
