Abstract

Methods of populating a document with digital information content. An information management software application is launched on a computer-based platform and a data drop window or a base format document is opened such that digital files, having digital data content, may be easily dragged and dropped (or pasted) into data holder locations of the data drop window or the base format document. A third-party document generation application is launched on the computer-based platform such that the third-party document generation application is able to communicate with the information management software application, for example, through an API, or the third-party document generation application is able to open and save the base format document, such that a third-party document, that is populated with the digital data content, may be automatically generated.
