Abstract

Disclosed embodiments generally relate to logically describing and modeling the layout of an output (e.g., a document or a presentation) by capturing author intent. Author intent can be captured based on the author's selection of visual exemplars (e.g., lists, grids, collages, etc.) with which to express content. Each visual exemplar identifies one or more semantic expressions (e.g., specific, often implied, relationships that are represented in visual exemplars of content) that are represented by those visual exemplars. The identified semantic expressions form a contract that can be observed in any generated output. The output can be formatted and laid out in a variety of different ways (e.g., for a variety of different presentation devices) to provide aesthetic and semantic efficiency in the generated output while maintaining the intent of the author.
