Abstract: The invention is related to fast setting, bio-based hot melt adhesive compositions and use thereof. The bio-based hot melt adhesive compositions are based on renewable-based feedstock, making them environmentally friendly, and particularly suitable for sealing cardboard case, carton, and cardboards.

Abstract: A method for managing multiple columns in a document. The method includes obtaining a text stream from the document; obtaining a current fill limit associated with an initial column of the multiple columns; placing, using a layout engine, the text stream within the multiple columns according to the current fill limit; identifying, after placing the text stream, a first fill level of a final column of the multiple columns; calculating a first difference between the current fill limit and the first fill level of the final column; calculating, in response to the first difference exceeding a tolerance, a revised fill limit based on the current fill limit; placing, using the layout engine, the text stream within the multiple columns according to the revised fill limit.

Abstract: A method for rendering an electronic document (ED) using a page rendering device, including: identifying, within the ED, a text stream and a requested font for the text stream, where the text stream has a plurality of characters; identifying a resident font supported by the PRD as a substitute for the requested font; generating a plurality of scaled characters by scaling the plurality of characters in the resident font; and rendering, by the PRD, the ED by placing the plurality of scaled characters on a page.

Abstract: A method of coordinating a software application for execution on a target device, the application comprising a set of pre-compiled, re-useable components and corresponding configuration data. The configuration data (108) is made available to a target device on which the application is to be run. For each component comprising the application, relevant configuration data is determined (110) and an instance of the component is instantiated (112) and configured (116) in dependence on the configuration data. The execution (120) of the application is at least partly determined by the interaction of the configured instances of the components.
