Abstract: A method and system for synchronizing documents in a distributed server-client environment. The system includes a synchronization server, a distributor client, a user client, and/or a network connecting the server and the clients. The method includes the steps of wrapping synchronization information such as document ID and version number in a synchronized document, storing the synchronized document and the synchronization information in a synchronization server, and comparing the local version with the version stored in the sync server if a latest version is to open, and if the local version is not the latest version, accessing the latest version document by receiving the document from the synchronized server.
