Abstract: In one embodiment of a computer-implemented method, layout data and product data is collected and a planogram development module processes this data to create multiple test planograms for a display space. Multiple potential planograms may be created by placing merchandise in a planogram using one or more optional rules permitting deformation of non-rigid products such as bags of non-fragile items, permitting product impingement into an adjacent shelf or peg space, allowing for hanging products on a pegboard vertically adjacent to a shelf, allowing product placement a set distance from a shelf or pegboard boundary and allowing two adjacent instances of the same product where those instances are in vertical alignment. In this embodiment, an optimized planogram is selected based on the criteria of packing efficiency, sell-through index, the aggregate sell-through index of each item multiplied by the item's profit margin, and/or overall planogram profitability.

Abstract: A method of making an ink-printed fibrous web by applying onto at least one side of a coated fibrous web at least one ink layer of a planographic ink to form an image thereon to produce a printed fibrous web. The ink layer(s) has a total volatile content, as supplied, of less than 10% (preferably less than 5%). The printed fibrous web is then subjected to ambient temperatures without the use of a drying oven or by employing oven temperatures that have an exit web temperature that does not exceed 225° F. Subsequent processing of the printed fibrous web includes applying one or more coatings including a waterbased coating, a coating having a total volatile content of less than 10%, a coating that is cured with actinic radiation, and an anti-offset coating.

Abstract: Systems and methods for providing data to tax preparation software are provided. In exemplary embodiments, raw tax data is collected from a user via at least one data form. When the data form is completed, the raw tax data is converted into standardized tax data. The standardized tax data may then be imported into the tax preparation software for processing. In exemplary embodiments, the tax preparation software comprises commercially available tax preparation software.
