Abstract: Similarity between a first web document and a second web document based on a similarity threshold is determined. The second web document has a portable page template associated therewith that includes one or more predetermined transformations that were previously applied to the second web document. In addition, one or more objects in the second web document are addressed upon the similarity threshold being met such that a tolerance threshold for one or more modifications to the second web document is met. A user is provided with the portable page template after the addressing of the one or more objects in the web document so that the portable page template automatically applies the one or more transformations, which were previously applied to the second web document, to the first web document.

Abstract: Green printing is utilized to repurpose a document. An indication is received that a printout of a document from a printer has been requested. The document has content with a format that would result in a first quantity of pages being printed. The content is grouped into one or more regions. Further, one or more transformations are applied to the content for each region such that the printer prints the document with the content in a transformed format that results in a second quantity of pages being printed without falling below a predetermined readability threshold. The second quantity of pages is less than the first quantity of pages. Further, the one or more transformations being applied to the document may result in a second quantity of ink being utilized to print the document such that the second quantity of ink being less than the first quantity of ink.

Abstract: A presentation document is repurposed to save paper and ink. An indication that a printout of a presentation document from a printer has been requested is received. The presentation document has content with a format that would result in a first quantity of pages being printed. The content has a plurality of slides and a plurality of shapes. Further, the presentation document is preprocessed to acquire data associated the presentation document. Group shaping is also performed to group the plurality of shapes into one or more groups based on shapes that have to be transformed together. Further, content transformation is performed to generate transformed content. In addition, a content re-layout is performed to determine placement of the transformed content.

Abstract: A word processing document is repurposed to save paper and ink. An indication is received that a printout of a word processing document from a printer has been requested. Further, the content is segmented into one or more regions according to a set of grouping rules, the set of grouping rules defining a region has having at least one homogeneous characteristic. In addition, one or more potential transformations are filtered for each region to generate one or more filtered potential transformations based on a set of rules that restricts a transformation according to a region type. The region type is determined by the at least one homogeneous characteristic for each region. Further, a cost function is evaluated for each of the one or more filtered potential transformations according to one or more appearance attributes for the word processing document.

Abstract: E-mail correspondence is repurposed to save paper and ink. An indication that a printout of e-mail correspondence from a printer has been requested is received. Further, a plurality of e-mail messages that belong to an e-mail conversation tree is detected. In addition, the plurality of e-mail messages in the e-mail conversation tree is reordered according to a respective timestamp associated with each e-mail message in the plurality of e-mail messages. The respective timestamp indicates a time of transmission. A root e-mail message is determined according to an earliest respective timestamp. The root e-mail message is a root node of the e-mail conversation tree. Further, a plurality of content blocks from the root e-mail message is recorded as a set of print blocks. In addition, a plurality of subsequent e-mail message content blocks with the set of print blocks.

Abstract: A PDF document is repurposed to save paper and ink. Preprocessing is performed on the PDF document. The PDF document has a first quantity of pages of content and a first quantity of ink. Further, complexity analysis is performed on the PDF document. In addition, a document object model based on the PDF document is created. In addition, content re-layout is performed on the PDF document based on the content repurposing such that a printer prints the PDF document with the content in a transformed format that results in a second quantity of pages being printed without falling below a predetermined readability threshold and a second quantity of ink being utilized. The second quantity of pages is less than the first quantity of pages. The second quantity of ink is less than the first quantity of ink.
