Abstract

The present disclosure describes techniques for adding a marker to a second document, the marker corresponding to a marker in a first document. The process may include identifying a token in a first document associated with a marker based upon a location of the marker in the first document. The process may further include identifying a particular token group that the token belongs to. The particular token group may be identified from a set of token groups for the first document. A particular token group from a set of token groups for the second document is then identified for the particular token group in the first document. A location for placing the marker in the second document is identified based upon the location of the particular token group in the second document. The marker is then placed in the second document at the identified location.
