Abstract
A method of transforming a first editable form of a document prepared by a batch text processing system into a second and incompatible editable form for use in another batch or an interactive text processing system through the use of a transform mechanism is described. A significant step of this method requires the identification of a limited number of key state variables, whose values reflect information concerning source document controls that have been read in a sequence thereof. The next step requires a definition of control compatibility, which source document controls are compatible with other source controls that set the state variables to their current values in that sequence. After control compatibility has been determined, it will be necessary to define the output items that need to be written for the target document as part of the transformation of any possible input sequence. In the next step, with respect to the output items thus defined, an ordering or hierarchy of these items is established so that they will be uniformly handled in the transformation. Then, for each possible output item, determine a set of rules which will govern when and if that output item gets written to the target document based on the value of the key variables in response to a particular set of input items that have been read from the source document. The output item is written if any one or more of the rules is satisfied. Text, when encountered, is defined as always ending a sequence and thereby initiating a write, if appropriate, to the target document of the transformation of the preceding sequence of controls.

Important Notes on Latency of Status data
Please note there is up to 60 days of latency in this Status indicator for certain status conditions. You can obtain up-to-date Status indicator readings by ordering PAIR for the file.
An application with the status "Published" (which means it is pending) may be recently abandoned, but not yet updated to reflect its abandoned status. However, an application filed less than one year ago is unlikely to be abandoned.
A patent with the status "Granted" may be recently expired, but not yet updated to reflect its expired status. However, it is highly unlikely a patent less than 3.5 years old would be expired.
An application with the status "Abandoned" is almost always current, but there is a small chance it was recently revived and the status not yet updated.
Important Note on Priority Date data
This priority date is an estimated earliest priority date and is purely an estimation. This date should not be taken as legal conclusion. No representations are made as to the accuracy of the date listed. Please consult a legal professional before relying on this date.
