Method and Apparatus for Correcting Document Formatting Based on Source Document
Methods, apparatus and computer-readable medium are disclosed for reformatting documents based on a source document. In one example, a method for facilitating the formatting of content of an active document is provided. The method includes receiving style template data in response to a display of style source template indicators. A style template preview based on the style template data is displayed and style template selection data indicating a selected style source template is received. A reformatted document is generated in which the reformatted document is based on the active document and source style data from the selected style source template. A reformat preview is then displayed including a representation of the active document and a representation of the reformatted document.
1 . A method of formatting content of an active document comprising:
receiving style template data in response to a display of style source template indicators;
displaying a style template preview based on the style template data;
receiving style template selection data indicating a selected style source template;
generating a reformatted document based on the active document and style source template format data from the selected style source template; and
displaying a reformat preview including a representation of the active document and a representation of the reformatted document.
2 . The method of claim 1 wherein displaying the style template preview is further based on applying source style data extracted from a source document.
3 . The method of claim 2 wherein the source document is the active document.
4 . The method of claim 1 wherein generating a reformatted document comprises:
assigning at least one style identifier to at least one criteria map based on the style source template format data and the active document.
5 . The method of claim 1 further comprising:
generating a list of style source templates based on source documents having source characteristics; and
wherein the display of style source template indicators is based on the list.
6 . The method of claim 1 wherein the style template data is received from a user input device.
7 . An apparatus for formatting content of an active document comprising:
at least one processing device; and
memory operatively connected to the at least one processing device, the memory comprising executable instructions that when executed by the at least one processing device cause the at least one processing device to:
receive style template data in response to a display of style source template indicators;
display a style template preview based on the style template data;
receive style template selection data indicating a selected style source template;
generate a reformatted document based on the active document and style source template format data from the selected style source template; and
display a reformat preview including a representation of the active document and a representation of the reformatted document.
8 . The apparatus of claim 7 , wherein the executable instructions, when executed by the at least one processing device, cause the at least one processing device to display the style template preview further based on applying source style data extracted from a source document
9 . The apparatus of claim 8 wherein the source document is the active document.
10 . The apparatus of claim 7 , wherein the executable instructions, when executed by the at least one processing device, cause the at least one processing device to generate a reformatted document by assigning at least one style identifier to at least one criteria map based on the style source template format data and the active document.
11 . The apparatus of claim 7 , wherein the executable instructions, when executed by the at least one processing device, cause the at least one processing device to receive the style template data from a user input device.
12 . A non-transitory computer readable medium comprising executable instructions that when executed by at least one processing device cause the at least one processing device to:
receive style template data in response to a display of style source template indicators;
display a style template preview based on the style template data;
receive style template selection data indicating a selected style source template;
generate a reformatted document based on the active document and style source template format data from the selected style source template; and
display a reformat preview including a representation of the active document and a representation of the reformatted document.
13 . The non-transitory computer readable medium of claim 12 , wherein the executable instructions, when executed by the at least one processing device, cause the at least one processing device to display the style template preview further based on applying source style data extracted from a source document
14 . The non-transitory computer readable medium of claim 13 wherein the source document is the active document.
15 . The non-transitory computer readable medium of claim 12 , wherein the executable instructions, when executed by the at least one processing device, cause the at least one processing device to assign at least one style identifier to at least one criteria map based on the style source template format data and the active document.
16 . The non-transitory computer readable medium of claim 12 , wherein the executable instructions, when executed by the at least one processing device, cause the at least one processing device to receive the style template data from a user input device.
