Polymorphous Data Based Cross-Media Document Layout

The fundamental usage of cross-media publishing is to facilitate the work of information publishing. Publishers can make content and templates only once, but publish them to many medias which are different in screen size. One of the most difficult problems in cross-media publishing is the target medias’ layout size are different. Generic template and content can’t adapt to different medias automatically. In this paper, we propose a new method of publishing information in cross-media environment using a new layout model which bases on polymorphous data and adaptive templates. The method we proposed in this paper is simple, efficient and stable.
