Abstract
A method of creating a structured word processing document that is arranged in a specific format, the method comprising the steps of opening the document to be processed in one of a plurality of view types; creating one or more composition frames (C-frames), each C-frame (402, 404, 406) containing data inserted by a user and selected by the user based on the use of the C-frame (402, 404, 406) within the structured document; displaying the one or more C-frames (402, 404, 406) on a screen to enable editing or ordering of each C-frame (402, 404, 406) to compose the structured document; and formatting the structured document to a predefined format after completion of the C-frames (402, 404, 406).
Claims45
A method of creating a structured word processing document that is arranged in a specific format, the method comprising the steps of:
- opening the document to be processed in one of a plurality of view types;
- creating one or more composition frames (C-frames), each C-frame containing data inserted by a user and selected by the user based on the use of the C-frame within the structured document;
- displaying the one or more C-frames on a screen to enable editing or ordering of each C-frame to compose the structured document;
- and
- formatting the structured document to a predefined format after completion of the C-frames.
A computer-readable medium comprising computer-executable instructions that, when executed on a processor, in a method of creating a structured word processing document that is arranged in a specific format, directs a device to:
- open the document to be processed in one of a plurality of view types;
- create one or more composition frames (C-frames), each C-frame containing data inserted by a user and selected by the user based on the use of the C-frame within the structured document;
- display the one or more C-frames on a screen to enable editing or ordering of each C-frame within the structured document;
- and
- format the structured document to a predefined format after completion of the C-frames.
A system for creating a structured word processing document that is arranged in a specific format, said system comprising:
- a server having a processor and memory for storing computer-executable instructions;
- one or more computing devices linked to said server through a communications network;
- wherein a user or users of said one or more computing devices are able to access said server to create said document by:
- creating one or more composition frames (C-frames), each C-frame containing data inserted by a user and selected by the user based on the use of the C-frame within the structured document;
- displaying the one or more C-frames on a screen to enable editing or ordering of each C-frame within the structured document;
- and
- formatting the structured document to a predefined format after completion of the C-frames.
A method of notating a document electronically by a user while reading the document, comprising the steps of:
- accessing and displaying in a first window the document for notation on an electronic display means;
- selecting a portion of the document;
- providing in a second window associated with the selected document portion, one or more links to characteristics of the selected document portion;
- and
- displaying each characteristic for viewing, editing or notating by the user.
