Patent number: 10769352Abstract: The present disclosure is directed toward systems, methods, and computer readable media for providing dynamic digital content via a webpage without flicker. For example, systems described herein include receiving a web document including action items associated with rendering dynamic digital content via a display device. The systems and methods described herein can reduce flicker in rendering the dynamic digital content by identifying dynamic digital content, pre-fetching external resources, and selectively hiding dynamic visual elements. In addition, the systems and methods described herein further reduce flicker by generating a dependency graph that reflects dependencies between the action items and then rendering digital content in accordance with an action queue generated based on the dependency graph. Furthermore, systems can individually reveal dynamic visual elements as action items for rendering dynamic digital content via the dynamic visual elements from the dependency graph are completed.Type: GrantFiled: November 9, 2017Date of Patent: September 8, 2020Assignee: ADOBE INC.Inventors: Harpreet Singh, Sachin Jain, Lalit Kishore Sharma

Patent number: 10657312Abstract: Techniques for performing font management on a client allowing the client to dynamically determine operating system support for new technology fonts, and upon an affirmative such determination perform installation and activation of those new technology fonts. At least one stub font and a new technology font test process facilitate activation/installation of selected fonts if the operating system supports them and graceful exception handling if the operating system does not. A stub font can be thought of as a simplified or otherwise light-weight representation of a real font (a stub font is a proxy for a real font). The stub font can be efficiently stored on a client machine, so that a new technology font test can attempt to activate the corresponding stub font in order to test whether a corresponding real font is supported by the operating system.Type: GrantFiled: November 17, 2017Date of Patent: May 19, 2020Assignee: Adobe Inc.Inventor: Sairus Patel

Patent number: 10628520Abstract: According to an embodiment of the present invention, a system dynamically processes a document including unstructured text and comprises a computer system including at least one processor. Initially, the system configures a plurality of dictionaries with terms supplied by a user and associated with a desired category. The processor in the system applies a set of rules to the unstructured text of the document to detect patterns indicating a presence of the desired category, wherein the set of rules is re-usable across dictionaries configured for different categories and pertains to arrangements of dictionary terms within sentences. The system produces annotations associated with the desired category for the document based on the detected patterns.
