Abstract: A method, system, and computer program product for creating audience-specifi c views of documents (including e-mail messages; text-based documents; documents or messages containing multiple media such as text, images, sound tiles; etc.). A document (or message) author may designate selected sections of a document, and assigns properties to these sections. These properties include which recipients are to have that section i n their view, and may further specify attributes such as a background color or font to use when displaying the section, whether th e section is copy-protected, whether the section can be forwarded and/or printed, whether the section is to be encrypted before forwarding or storing, whether the section can be rendered in audio and/or video, whether the section can be rendered in a virtual reality world, etc.
