Abstract
A method for displaying a digital document to a user where the display sequence of the pages of the document is personalized based on the user's past interactions with the document, such as viewing, annotating, editing, sharing, etc. on each pages. As user interacts with the document, the viewer application on the client computer reports the user interactions to a server. Through analytics, the server can decide the importance of individual pages and rank the pages accordingly, and sends page ranking information back to the client. The viewer application on the client can then render the document where pages are ordered based on the ranking, which reflects the user's interest in these pages. Different modes of reorganizing a document based on user interaction history are provided, so that the pages can be displayed in sequences based on the frequency of certain types of user interactions.
