1. A method of converting a data file received by an automated publishing system from a source for use within one of a plurality of presentation spaces of the automated publishing system according to a business logic of an organization using the publication system, such method comprising the steps of:
- parsing the data file received from the source to recover an identifier of the source based upon the business logic of the organization using the publication system and an information content to be used by the automated publication system;
identifying a presentation space of the plurality of presentation spaces for the parsed file based upon the identifier of the source and the business logic of the organization using the publication system; and
reformatting the information content of the parsed file for use within the identified presentation space based upon a set of predetermined attributes associated with the identified presentation space.
