In Transkribus you can export your work in a number of formats:

Export Format “Transkribus Document”

If you export your transcription as a Transkribus Document you will produce a METS (Metadata Encoding and Transmission Standard) file containing the links to PAGE-XML, ALTO-XML and/or image files depending on which options you choose. A METS file is like a container which includes all the background information about a file. More detailed information about METS can be found at: http://www.loc.gov/standards/mets/
