Abstract: A document processing method includes receiving, at a server with a network interface, electronic documents from a user. The server includes a software application adapted to recognize a class of electronic documents to which the electronic documents belong. The method also includes processing the electronic documents received from the user to extract data therefrom based on a recognition that the electronic documents belong to the class of electronic documents. The extracted data corresponds to a service being provided to the user. The method also includes automatically mapping the extracted data from the processed electronic documents to a data repository on the server. The data repository is accessible by the user through the network interface. The method also includes electronically generating output data based on the mapped data from the data repository to the user. The output data corresponds to the service being provided to the user.

Abstract: A reviewer opens or imports a document into a document viewer. The reviewer can then create various annotations to the document. The reviewer then has the option of assigning each annotation to a specific recipient or group of recipients. The document viewer can be implemented as a centralized application where recipients to whom annotations have been assigned are notified that a document is available for viewing. Upon receipt of this notification, recipients can log on to the document viewer to view the document containing the annotations specific to each recipient. Alternatively, the document viewer can be implemented as a stand-alone application where recipients to whom annotations have been assigned are sent the document showing only those annotations intended for each specific recipient.
