Abstract: A technology for identifying design issues during an electronic form generating process is provided. In one method approach, a user selected runtime environment to be applied to an electronic form is received. A form design check is performed on the electronic form. A reporting object generates a list of design issues identified by the form design check. The list of design issues is displayed in a user interface.

Abstract: Systems and/or methods (“tools”) are described that convert or present conversion problems for electronic documents. The tools may convert a generally unstructured electronic document to a generally structured electronic document using non-visual textual and layout information of the unstructured document. The tools can also present possible problems with this or other types of conversion. And the tools can enable a user to alter an electronic document's schema without altering its visual layout.

Abstract: Systems and/or methods (“tools”) are described that enable a recognition system to recognize user-entered data conforming to a data rule. The tools may do so by providing data regions for a document. With these data regions, the recognition system may better determine what information on the document is user-entered and what is not. Each of these data regions has a data rule governing data for that region. With the data rule, the recognition system may better recognize data from each region. The tools may ascertain these data regions and rules from an electronic form having controls laid out similarly to data-entry areas of the document.
