Dear Colleagues,

Private letters, government documents, business letters, contracts or agreements, historical archives, scientific papers, product manuals, media webpage, electronic books: all of these are documents. Document information processing technology covers document presentation, editing, transformation, storage, retrieval, publishing, printing, publication, digital copyright, data stream integration and intelligent document, etc. In recent years, people have paid special attention to new trends in technical development, such as structural presentation of document information; standardization and interoperability of document format; document processing under cloud computing; document information mining; mobile reading; combination of semantic web and intelligent document, documents and big data, document reflowing and knowledge service, etc.
