Abstract: A content processing application that implements a method for displaying characters at least a threshold distance apart. The method receives two consecutive characters. The method automatically identifies a distance between the two consecutive characters and moves at least one of the two consecutive characters to adjust the distance between the two consecutive characters to a threshold distance apart.

Abstract: A content presentations editing application for editing a structured electronic document that includes mathematical objects is provided. The content presentation editing application selects a portion of the document, the selected portion including at least one mathematical object. The content presentation editing application centers the selected portion of the document by identifying an alignment symbol in the mathematical object and aligning the mathematical object to a particular position in the document at the identified alignment symbol. To align the mathematical object, some embodiments move the mathematical object such that the alignment symbol is at the center of the page. For mathematical objects that are located within cells of a table, the center alignment operation moves each mathematical object in the table such that the identified alignment symbol aligns with the center of the table column that contains the mathematical object.

Abstract: In some implementations, a computing system can be configured to perform personalized content item selection in a privacy preserving manner. In some implementations, user privacy can be protected by performing the personalized selection of content items on the user's device. For example, the computing system can include a client device configured to select content items from a collection of candidate content items received from a server device based on a user profile generated and stored on the client device. In some implementations, user privacy can be protected when performing the personalized selection of content items by sending an anonymous, or approximate, user profile (e.g., class profile) to the server device. For example, the computing system can include a server device configured to select content items from a collection of content items based on a class profile representing a group of similar user profiles received from the client device.

Abstract: An electronic device displays at least a portion of an electronic document with a predefined page layout at a first magnification level on a display; detects a first input indicating a first insertion point in the document, where the first insertion point is proximate to a first portion of text in the document; and in response to detecting the first input: selects a second magnification level different from the first magnification level, where the second magnification level is selected so as to display the first portion of text at a target text display size, and, while maintaining the predefined page layout of the document, displays, at the second magnification level, a portion of the document that includes the first portion of text.

Abstract: Aspects of the present disclosure involve a mobile or computer reader application that obtains articles or other computer files from a central database and displays the articles to a user of the device. The reader application may be customizable around one or more characteristics of the user of the device. In one embodiment, the type and number of articles provided to the device and displayed in the reader application may be based on the determination of a category or type of usage of the application is performed by the user. Further, the determination of the use of the reader application on the device is performed by and contained within the device such that usage information is not shared with overall article providing system. In another embodiment, the article providing system and/or device may determine recommendations to provide to a user of the reading application. These recommendations may be based on one or more selected interests or topics of the user of the reading application.

Abstract: Aspects of the present disclosure involve a mobile or computer reader application that obtains articles or other computer files from a central database and displays the articles to a user of the device. In addition to providing the articles to the reader application, an article providing system may also determine the quality or popularity of particular articles and provide the most popular articles to users of the system. In one embodiment, the system may receive one or more anonymous interaction metrics from one or more devices connected to the system. The anonymous interaction metrics may be associated with a particular article and provide some indication of a user's engagement with the article. The system utilizes these interaction metrics or measurements to set or adjust a score or ranking associated with the particular article. The score may then be utilized by the system to rank the article in relation to other articles available through the system to provide the most popular or highest ranked articles to users of the system.

Abstract: The present technology provides a less burdensome mechanism to bring media items owned or licensed in the physical world into an account hosted by an electronic media provider. A specific use case deals with magazine subscriptions wherein the electronic media provider can send entity identifying information to a publisher clearinghouse that has subscription data for many different magazines. If the entity information sufficiently matches subscription information, the clearinghouse sends back data identifying magazines for which the entity is entitled to a digital copy, and these magazines become available to the user through the electronic media provider.
