Abstract: Modular content framework and document format methods and systems are described. The described framework and format define a set of building blocks for composing, packaging, distributing, and rendering document-centered content. These building blocks define a platform-independent framework for document formats that enable software and hardware systems to generate, exchange, and display documents reliably and consistently. The framework and format have been designed in a flexible and extensible fashion. In addition to this general framework and format, a particular format, known as the reach package format, is defined using the general framework. The reach package format is a format for storing paginated documents. The contents of a reach package can be displayed or printed with full fidelity among devices and applications in a wide range of environments and across a wide range of scenarios.

Abstract: An electronic document has a plurality of parts including a root relationship part, a payload part, and a glossary part. The root relationship part identifies the various parts of the electronic document. The payload part stores data for the electronic document including one or more links to relationship entries of the glossary part. The glossary part stores relationship entries, the relationship entries identifying locations of resources for the one or more links.

Abstract: A document with one or more analog markups is obtained. An original electronic document corresponding to the document is also identified. The one or more analog markups are converted to one or more digital annotations, and the one or more digital annotations are stored in one or more parts of a package of the original electronic document.

Abstract: This document describes tools capable of validating and enabling validation of a package's structure. To do so, constraint grammar is provided that is capable of enabling a person to build a set of machine-readable constraints for a package's structure. Based on this set of constraints, a package validator module may accurately and automatically validate that a package's structure meets these constraints.

Abstract: Methods and systems described herein provide a name-based access mechanism that can enable name-based requests to be generated and sent to a server to retrieve correspondingly named parts of a document. In at least some embodiments, a resource designator associated with the document is wrapped or encapsulated using a special scheme which appends a name associated with the desired document part to the encapsulated resource designator Once a server receives the encapsulated resource designator, the server can locate the named document part and stream or otherwise provide the document part to the requesting client device.

Abstract: Techniques relating to structural context for fixed layout markup documents are described. In one instance, a process defines content and associated positional information of a document with a set of content markup. The process also specifies a structural configuration for the document relative to at least some of the content markup, such that the structural configuration is separate from the content markup.

Abstract: Techniques relating to story tracking for fixed layout markup documents are described. In one instance, a process identifies stories contained in a fixed layout markup document. The process also determines which portions of the fixed layout markup document relate to an individual story.

Abstract: Palette-based, multi-tint, named-color methods and systems utilize a pixel-by-pixel indexing technique in which individual index values into a palette of interest can be used in different ways for rendering associated images across different devices. For some devices, the index values are used to index into the palette of interest to ascertain a specific indexed color value that is then used to render that pixel of the associated image. For other devices, the index value is used as a means to compute a color value that these other devices then use to render that pixel of the associated image.
