Some embodiments of the invention provide a method for identifying relevant documents. The method receives a set of reference documents. The method analyzes the received set of reference documents. Based on this analysis, the method then identifies one or more documents that are potentially relevant to the discussion in one or more reference documents. In some embodiments, the method identifies the relevant documents by examining candidate documents that are on a computer or are accessible by a computer through a computer network (e.g., a local area network, a wide area network, or a network of networks, such as the Internet). In these embodiments, the method uses its analysis of the reference document set to determine whether the discussion (i.e., content) of the candidate document is relevant to the topics discussed in one or more of the reference documents. If so, the method of some embodiments identifies the candidate document as a potentially relevant document (i.e., as a document that is potentially relevant or related to the reference document set).

The present invention improves application of a style to a view object when a document for a Web page to be edited is edited on a browser-type edit screen. First, a view object is detected from a managed document. Then, a direct style directly described in the managed document and an indirect style identified only by referring to an external document are collected. A browser-type edit screen is generated in which the direct and indirect styles are applied to each view object. The content of the managed document is synchronized with the edited content on the browser-type edit screen based on the editing operations on the browser-type edit screen.

A general document recognition system is described which is intended to be used in connection with an electronic document transmission function used on a computer network. The general document recognition system is set up to recognize any number of document types created by application programs in the network and is also set up with rules as to how to extract destination data from each document type. The extracted data from each document can be the actual intended destination, such as a facsimile telephone number, or can be the identity of the intended recipient individual. If a recipient, rather than a destination, is extracted from the document, the general document recognition system can query a previously designated external database to recover the destination information for that recipient. An LDAP database is the preferred external database for this function.

A system determines documents that are associated with a location, identifies a group of signals associated with each of the documents, and determines authoritativeness of the documents for the location based on the signals.

What is disclosed is a novel system and method for identifying and removing print defects from an original document such that user markings applied to the hardcopy originally can be more readily identified and extracted. In one embodiment, an image of an original document and a marked document are received. The original document was printed using a print device which caused a print defect in the hardcopy print. Methods for identifying the print defect in the difference image are provided herein. The identified print defect is removed from the difference image. The difference image retains the user-applied markings once the print defects have been identified and removed. The user markings can then be provided to a storage device for subsequent retrieval and added into the image of the original document to generate an image of a new marked document containing the user markings without the defect. Various embodiments are disclosed.
