Intelligent document
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Intelligent document is a general term to describe web documents with more functionality than a page designed to emulate paper. Formats include PDF from Adobe, InfoPath from Microsoft, and XForms from W3C. Each is based on using XML as a format for data.
Intelligent documents are essentially interactive electronic documents. Intelligent documents include forms that change on request, personalized web pages, and personalised presentations. They usually require web access and server software.
Intelligent documents are used to help automate business processes, improve customer service, and reduce costs. Intelligent documents are also being used by marketing firms to target consumers more precisely. Programming marketing documents with customer data helps to improve customer loyalty, increase response rates, reduce marketing costs, and build brand recognition.
