If the Journal's staff are handling XML Conversion themselves, this article details the process within JAMS.

Alternatively, XML Conversion can be completed by JAMS Production Staff. Visit here to learn more or contact support@jams.pub.

Once the conversion editor completes preparation of final manuscript files (XML and PDF), they reupload the files to JAMS and the status of the paper automatically changes to Pending Online. At this stage, the Publisher can go ahead and publish a paper or request a re-conversion of the paper in case updates are needed.
