Abstract: A system and method for an all-inclusive, high speed and convenient delivery of digital content to a user is described. The system and method include software, firmware and communications technology for providing digital content to a user, monitoring and controlling an interface between the user and the system to provide for purchase or lease of digital content by the user as well as communicating and archiving all data necessary to accommodate accounting, billing and reporting functions. The system and method also provide for management of the digital content and user interface information in accordance with inventory requirements, physical location unique information, digital rights management and other content usage conditions as well as delivery via a wired or wireless connection to a memory device or a portable rendering device.

Abstract: Methods and systems consistent with the present invention provide for producing a digital photography book. An interface receives book information corresponding to a digital photography book. A book document generating module selects a transform file for use in transforming the book information into a press-ready document, and creates the press-ready document from the book information using the selected transform file. The book information is treated as a single object during the creating. A verification module at a printing site attempts to verify the press-ready document. A press thereafter prints the press-ready document based on a determination that the press-ready document passed verification.

Abstract: A system and method are provided for producing a real-time transcript of a live presentation. A stenographer produces a stream of phonemes which are translated into human language text and further formatted for presentation on a display device, such as in a web browser. A computer readable file is stored on a server an contains the human language text which has been formatted for presentation on a display device. The computer readable file is periodically concatenated to include the most recent text. The computer readable file is periodically transmitted over a network to client computers to be displayed in a client application, such as a web browser, and can be transmitted at set intervals, or at the request of the client.
