Methods and Systems for automatically providing a graphical layout based on an example graphic layout are disclosed. In general, a block boundary analysis is used to identify spatial characteristics of the example graphic layout and an actual content. A database is searched for one or more graphical templates having spatial characteristics that are similar to the spatial characteristics of the example graphic layout. A fit analysis with the spatial characteristics of the actual content is also performed on the graphical templates. The resulting graphical templates are ranked. At least one of the graphical templates in the ranking is automatically filled with the actual content and provided in place of the example graphic layout.
