Document conversion and integration system

摘要

A document management system is provided for integrating documents generated in an enterprise into an enterprise data store where the documents can be accessed later. Documents in a first format and a specification containing instructions for describing the documents are provided. The documents are received in a second format, along with descriptions of the documents. The documents in the second format are imported into the data store responsive to the descriptions so that they may be located easily. Beneficially, the invention provides simpler and more flexible conversion and indexing processes for users seeking to electronically store and access documents after their creation.
