Abstract

An existing typesetting system is tied by bridging software to an existing page-presentation program to effect both hard (typeset) copy and interactive browsing. The typesetting system formats documents for a variety of output devices, and the “browsing” feature appears to the user as simply another output device that happens to be interactive.
