Abstract: The invention describes a system and method for dynamically composing and generating documents, by breaking down text and multi-media content into small, independent content blocks and then re-ordering and recompiling them in different ways to create a plurality of different documents on demand. The system allows users to select a document type and then specify the desired parameters of the document. The invention employs a semantic network and an expert system to select the appropriate content blocks from a content repository, and then iteratively applies rules to ensure that the selected content is compatible and all dependencies are met. The system then renders the assembled document to the desired file format.
