摘要:
A system and method for managing documents within a shared peripheral includes a network-based document management system. A document management module of defines a bookmark or symbolic link to a document stored inside or outside a document management module repository. The symbolic link is treated analogously to other documents managed by the document management module. Upon linking to a document networked, the system enables users to download a document stored in the repository to devices including a local machine or network hard drive.

A system and method for selective installation of a network document processing device. Data representing available networked document processing devices is first communicated to a network, whereupon a visual indication of one of the document processing devices is displayed on a thin client interface. The thin client interface then receives, from an associated user, a selection of one of the available document processing devices. The thin client device then communicates this selection data to a storage, which has stored various device drivers, each associated with at least one of the available document processing devices. The device driver corresponding to the selection data is then retrieved from the storage and sent to the thin client device, which is resident on a workstation. The driver is then installed and the thin client device is able to request document processing operations by the selected document processing device.

This subject application is directed to a system and method for sending electronic files to multiple destinations. When a document is first selected for output, a first level, or generic driver, is selected. This driver enables output of the selected document to all selected output destinations, such as printing, web posting, and e-mailing. While a common driver interface is functional, the system further teaches a mechanism wherein a user can select a destination specific driver for some or all of the destinations. This selection allows for more refined processing options than those afforded by the generic driver, which must function in a set of parameters common to all destinations. In accordance with another aspect of the invention, once a driver for a specific destination is selected, the associated driver is loaded and selected criteria for the specialized driver is stored for future use for documents being output to that destination.

A method and system for accessing a network-based document server application from a client. An access point is defined within a local file system of the client. A local file navigation interface allows a user of the client to interface to the access point such that the network-based document management system is accessed via the local file system of the client.

The subject application is directed to a system and method for generating an electronic document for transmission to multiple destinations. An electronic document file is received from a document output driver as well as destination data for transmitting the electronic document file to a plurality of destinations. Job attribute data for each of the destinations are also received and a job language file is generated in accordance with the destination data and the job attribute data. The job language file is appended to the electronic document file and the electronic document file with the appended job language file is communicated to the plurality of output destinations in accordance with the appended job language file. The electronic document file is then processed at each output destination in accordance with the appended job language file.

A method for a user using a thick client to send a print job to a server wherein the user name is preserved and can be determined by the server. When the image file is processed, the processing comprising appending a user identification to the file. A destination driver is invoked, which creates raw print data from the image file for each selected driver. The raw print data is sent to the server, wherein the server parses the raw data and determines the user identification. The raw print data can then be sent to the user's inbox on the server. In a preferred embodiment, the user identification comprises the sequence of ASCII 60 (or 3C hex), the username, and ASCII 62 (or 3E hex), or “ ”. Preferably, the user identification is appended to the document name.

This invention is related to a document distribution system, and more particularly, the present invention relates to a document distribution system that reduces network traffic. The present invention is directed to a method and system for distributing a document to at least one destination, comprising the steps of providing a document to be distributed; creating a job by associating the document with at least one printer job language command, wherein the printer job language command provides instructions for the distribution of the job; and distributing, on the basis of the printer job language command, the job to at least one destination.
