Abstract
Server systems are disclosed that receive content requests and respond with hardware-independent graphics commands instead of, or in addition to, unprocessed content items. The server systems can also generate text information regarding text in the requested content items, and provide the text information to user devices so that the user devices can have knowledge of the text in the content item. The user device can use the text information to handle user interactions with the content item, including copy, paste and search commands and other similar commands. Accordingly, the hardware-independent graphics commands-based representation may provide text interactivity and effects not otherwise available to content representations based on graphics commands or images of content.
