1. A method performed by a computer system coupled to a network, the computer system comprising a processor and a memory for storing a set of instructions executable by the processor to perform the steps comprising:
- sending a first electronic version of a paper to a display device coupled to the network as a likeness of the paper;
detecting, by a content preparation system, a reference to a first content at a first location in the likeness;
associating the detected reference with a second location in the likeness; and
forming a link between the reference to the first content and the second location in the likeness such that when the first electronic version of the paper is displayed on the display device the link is embedded in the first electronic version and the link is user-selectable to cause one or more of the computer system and the display device to perform an operation associated with the second location.
