摘要 |
The present invention relates to an automated system for processing a file over a computer network. The automated system for processing the file preferably includes a client computer adapted to communicate with a server computer adapted to communicate with a database including at least one file in a first file format accessible by the computer and a printing process module including computer readable instructions for allowing a copy of the file to be directly printed independently of being accessed by an application program associated with the file. In addition to directly printing a document, in at least one embodiment, the file copy can also be directly transmitted via facsimile and/or electronic mail without accessing the copy via its associated application program. The invention can allow for speedier printing, emailing, or facsimile, as the application program is not activated.
