  • Image processing for productivity applications
    Patent number: 9875533
    Abstract: Image processing for productivity applications is provided. An image may be received by a computing device. The computing device may detect the edges comprising the received image and adjust the image based on a skew state of the detected edges. The computing device may then process the adjusted image to correct imbalances. The computing device may then assign an image classification to the processed image. The computing device may then adjust the processed image based on the assigned image classification.

  • SERVER-TO-SERVER CONTENT DISTRIBUTION
    Publication number: 20180007133
    Abstract: A non-limiting example method includes receiving a request to publish content that is stored on a user storage server in a personal data store. The method includes preparing the content for publication and moving the prepared content to a content repository to generate published content. The method includes receiving a request to make a personal copy of the published content and making a copy of the published content in a personal data store in a user storage server. The copy is independently editable of the published content. A non-limiting example system includes an application programming interface that includes a publish command to generate a published copy of a specified first content stored in a first personal data store in a content repository, and a retrieve command that generates a personal copy of a specified second content stored in the content repository in a second personal data store.
