Embodiment Construction

A. Integrated Document Viewer

[0045]In one embodiment 100 of the present invention, illustrated in FIG. 1, the Internet 110 is the platform on which a set of documents (e.g., PDF documents, not shown) is shared between a host server 120, one or more client computers 130 and various members of social networks 140, some of whom are users of client computers 130. In this embodiment, Host server 130 converts the original documents into HTML (in accordance with the HTML 5.0 and CSS 3 specifications), employing the @font-face tag to download the original web fonts embedded in the documents, and integrates the document into the desired layout of a web page.

[0046]In this manner, the appearance of each document within the web page is preserved (as in the original document), including fonts and other page layout attributes. As will be illustrated below, the text remains searchable and the document can be viewed and controlled via standard web browser controls (without the need for any document...

Abstract

In various embodiments of the present invention, documents (eg, PDFs) are converted into HTML 5 (and CSS 3) formats and integrated into existing HTML 5 web pages to preserve the original embedded fonts. The fonts can also be integrated or embedded (e.g., via the standard HTML “iframe” tag) into other web pages. The original appearance of the source document is maintained, the text is preserved as searchable text, and the document is integrated into a web page that can be searched, zoomed, scrolled, and printed utilizing standard web browser controls. A significantly increased “ad inventory” is thereby enabled, wherein advertisements can be integrated between pages, or even within a page. Moreover, the resulting document can be passively shared with members of a user's external social networks (including those within the host website), along with other activities and behaviors performed by the user on the hosting website.
