发明名称 Systems and methods for appearance-intent-directed document format conversion for mobile printing
摘要 An embodiment generally relates to systems and methods for determining a conversion location based on the content of a document and an intended quality level of the document. More particularly, processing logic can be configured to analyze a document submitted for rendering to determine a content level of the document. Further the processing logic can compare the content level to an intended quality level specified by a user of the document to determine whether to convert the document on local resources or in a cloud-based network. An associated conversion application in the appropriate location can convert the document into a printable format, and a print engine can render the converted document.

主权项 1. A method of processing documents including determining whether to convert the document into a printable electronic format using a local converter or a remote converter, wherein the remote converter is included in a cloud-based network, the method comprising: storing a decision mapping table cross-referencing three quality levels with three content levels; wherein the three quality levels are: functional quality level suitable for text only documents, normal office quality level for normal usage documents, and presentation quality level representing features of an underlying document; wherein the three content levels are: a first content level of the three content levels comprising content with at least one of a break, a specified font, a bullet, numbering, a specified page alignment, a field, a column, or a specified paragraph format,a second content level of the three content levels comprising content with at least one of a spreadsheet, a picture, a background, or a word art, anda third content level of the three content levels comprising content with at least one of a document comment, a tracked change, or content from a plug-in; wherein the decision mapping table indicates that a presentation quality level and a second content level, a normal quality level and a third content level, and a presentation quality level and a third content level correspond to the remote converter, and the decision mapping table further indicates that remaining quality levels and content levels correspond to the local converter; parsing content within a document associated with a mobile device to determine features of the content; determining a content level for the document based on the features of the content, wherein the content level for the document is indicative of processing resources required to convert the document to a printable electronic format, wherein the content level for the document consists of one of the three content levels: a first content level of the three content levels comprising content with at least one of a break, a specified font, a bullet, numbering, a specified page alignment, a field, a column, or a specified paragraph format,a second content level of the three content levels comprising content with at least one of a spreadsheet, a picture, a background, or a word art, anda third content level of the three content levels comprising content with at least one of a document comment, a tracked change, or content from a plug-in; receiving, at the mobile device, a user selection of an intended quality level relating to rendering the document, wherein the user selects one from among the three quality levels consisting of: functional quality level suitable for text only documents, normal office quality level for normal usage documents, and presentation quality level representing features of an underlying document; providing, by a processor and based on the content level for the document and the intended quality level, a determination on whether to use a local converter or a remote converter to convert the document into the printable electronic format, wherein the local converter is locally accessible by the mobile device and the remote converter is remotely accessible by the mobile device, wherein the providing a determination on whether to use a local converter or a remote converter comprises examining the decision mapping table.
