Embodiments described herein relate generally to the migration of a static object, such as an electronic document, across separate computer systems while retaining context data associated with the static object. In one embodiment, a source computer system is adapted to package a static object and associated context information and transmit the package over a network to a target computer system. The target computer system may present the static object in an application with the associated context information to substantially approximate presentation of the same at the source computer system. Other embodiments may be described and claimed.
