Abstract

A system and method for accepting content in a first form, identifying the type of the content, specifying at least a second form, converting the content form from the first to the second form, and continuing conversion for any forms subsequent to the second form. Variant Production Functions create specification-based variant files and supplemental metadata using data from existing resources. A Variant Production Function provides functionality for parsing an existing resource's data, and generating a complete or partial alternate translated form of that resource. The Variant Production Function includes at least the input of the content of the primary target resource file used as the basis for the new variant. Variant Production Functions may be in Auto Generation Configuration Objects, or used as components within a Translation and Transcription Service.
