摘要:
An extensible markup language (“XML”) schema is provided for defining a content region which displays specific types of content in an electronic document created in a word processing application program. The schema includes structural elements for defining the content region in the electronic document. The structural elements include a properties element for defining properties associated with the content to be displayed in the content region and a content element for receiving the content to be displayed according to the defined properties. The properties element and the content element define the content region in the electronic document.

A programmable object model allows a user to programmatically access and utilize a Namespace or schema library containing XML schema files and related XML-based resources for associating the schema files and XML-based resources with one or more documents and for customizing the functionality associated with the schema files and XML-based resources. The programmable object model also allows the user/programmer to remove schema files and other XML-based resources from association with previously associated documents.
摘要:
The present invention provides markers for spelling and grammar errors and the proofing state of a word-processing document stored as an XML file. The markers are used to show where a spelling or grammar error has occurred within the document. The proof state indicates whether the document been fully checked for spelling or grammatical errors.
摘要:
An application can use native field structures, which can store information such as “Creation Date of the Document”, “Formula”, a specially formatted number, a reference to text in another part of the document. Fields are commonly used for document automation, so that the application itself can include certain information among the contents of the document, with possibly no extra user intervention required. Thus a way can be provided to save this field definition information in a markup language (ML) document without data loss. When the format is stored in a markup language, other applications can validate the document stored in accordance with the native format. The other applications can represent the information in accordance to the degree to which they are aware of the unique properties of the application used to generate the document.

摘要:
Methods and systems provide for imposing structure onto a freeform or irregular table so that a subsequent consuming application may use the table, including presentation of the table and location of the data in the table. A generic grid structure is created having a plurality of uniformly-shaped cells such that if the generic grid is overlaid onto the irregular table, each cell within the irregular table may be located based on its position relative to the uniform cells or grids. The grid structure creates a coordinate system for defining the shape of the irregular table, for defining locations and shapes of cells comprising the irregular table and for addressing the locations of data contained in the irregular table.

A data store is provided for storing, relating and for allowing use of data associated with a computer-generated document. Data for structuring information associated with a document, such as document metadata, is maintained in the data store where relationships between different pieces of data are maintained in a location distinct from the surface level view of a document. The data store exposes interfaces to the various pieces of data in the data store for allowing different applications to access and operate on one or more of the data pieces. The pieces of data may be structured according to a markup language such as the Extensible Markup Language (XML), and XML schemas may be associated with each piece of data for allowing the data store to validate the structure applied to the data based on an XML schema associated with a given piece of data.
摘要:
An XML schema is provided allowing data to be stored in a separate location from the presentation surface of an application. By way of the schema, users of the application can establish links (or bindings) between the contents of the data and the presentation surface as part of an XML document format. Methods, systems, and computer-readable medium are described implementing the schema.
摘要:
A programmability mode for interacting with data stores within a document allows real time interaction. Data for structuring information associated with a document, such as document metadata, is maintained in the data store where relationships between different pieces of data are maintained in a location distinct from the surface level view of a document. The data store exposes interfaces to the various pieces of data in the data store for allowing different applications to access and operate on one or more of the data pieces. The pieces of data may be structured according to a markup language such as the Extensible Markup Language (XML), and XML schemas may be associated with each piece of data for allowing the data store to validate the structure applied to the data based on an XML schema associated with a given piece of data.
摘要:
A Word processor including a native XML file format is provided. The well formed XML file fully represents the word-processor document, and fully supports 100% of word-processor's rich formatting. There are no feature losses when saving the word-processor documents as XML. A published XSD file defines all the rules behind the word-processor's XML file format. Hints may be provided within the XML associated files providing applications that understand XML a shortcut to understanding some of the features provided by the word-processor. The word-processing document is stored in a single XML file. Additionally, manipulation of word-processing documents may be done on computing devices that do not include the word-processor itself.
