Abstract
A system, method, and/or computer readable medium, allows a user to interactively indicate content preferences. An interactive representation of at least of a portion of a document is displayed, such as on a display device. The interactive representation may have a layout substantially the same as a resulting document that would be displayed or printed. The interactive representation includes one or more content areas associated with content item preferences and/or rules for selecting content items to populate the content areas. When a new selection for a content area is made, the interactive representation is automatically updated. Thus, according to an embodiment, the user'"'"'s view during the interactive process is substantially similar to that of the final document to be produced.
