  - normalize
```
public static String normalize(String publicId)
```
    Normalize a public identifier.
    Public identifiers must be normalized according to the following rules before comparisons between them can be made:
    
    Whitespace characters are normalized to spaces (e.g., line feeds, tabs, etc. become spaces).
    
    Leading and trailing whitespace is removed.
    
    Multiple internal whitespaces are normalized to a single space.
    
    This method is declared static so that other classes can use it directly.
    Parameters:
    
    publicId - The unnormalized public identifier.
    
    Returns:
    
    The normalized identifier.
  - encodeURN
```
public static String encodeURN(String publicId)
```
    Encode a public identifier as a "publicid" URN.
    This method is declared static so that other classes can use it directly.
    
    Parameters:
    
    publicId - The unnormalized public identifier.
    
    Returns:
    
    The normalized identifier.
  - decodeURN
```
public static String decodeURN(String urn)
```
    Decode a "publicid" URN into a public identifier.
    This method is declared static so that other classes can use it directly.
    
    Parameters:
    
    urn - The urn:publicid: URN
    
    Returns:
    
    The normalized identifier.
