Implementations described herein generally relate to generating a modification selectable element that may be provided for presentation to a user in a smart dictation session with an automated assistant. The modification selectable element may, when selected, cause a transcription, that includes textual data generated based on processing audio data that captures a spoken utterance and that is automatically arranged, to be modified. The transcription may be automatically arranged to include spacing, punctuation, capitalization, indentations, paragraph breaks, and/or other arrangement operations that are not specified by the user in providing the spoken utterance. Accordingly, a subsequent selection of the modification selectable element may cause these automatic arrangement operation(s), and/or the textual data locationally proximate to these automatic arrangement operation(s), to be modified. Implementations described herein also relate to generating the transcription and/or the modification selectable element on behalf of a third-party software application.

System(s) and method(s) to enable modification of an automatically arranged transcription in smart dictation

Implementations set forth herein relate to an automated assistant that can selectively determine whether to incorporate a verbatim interpretation of portions spoken utterances into an entry field and/or incorporate synonymous content into the entry field. For instance, a user can be accessing an interface that provides an entry field (e.g., address field) for receiving user input. In order to provide input for entry field, the user can select the entry field and/or access a GUI keyboard to initialize an automated assistant for assisting with filling the entry field. Should the user provide a spoken utterance, the user can elect to provide a spoken utterance that embodies the intended input (e.g., an actual address) or a reference to the intended input (e.g., a name). In response to the spoken utterance, the automated assistant can fill the entry field with the intended input without necessitating further input from the user.

Voice-controlled entry of content into graphical user interfaces

Various aspects of the subject technology relate to systems, methods, and machine-readable media for sharing content with a nearby device. A system is configured receive, from a sending device, a request to share content, wherein the request comprises location information associated with a location of the sending device and content characteristics, determine, based on the location information and the content characteristics, that one or more receiving devices are within a proximity threshold of the location of the sending device and are capable of loading content associated with the content characteristics, receive, from the sending device, a selection of a receiving device from the one or more receiving devices and content to be shared, and provide the content to be shared to the selected receiving device.

Sharing content with nearby devices

A print server may include an application manager configured to receive a print job from a user and associate the print job with a printer. The print server may include a presence manager configured to provide a presence code for the print job and the printer, and to receive the presence code from the user in conjunction with a physical presence of the user at the printer, and a print job router configured to release the print job for printing by the printer, based on the receipt of the presence code.

Remote printing management for cloud printing

A print server may include an access rights manager configured to receive an access request for printer access rights. The print server may also include a customized printer identifier generator configured to generate a customized printer identifier, based on the access request, with the printer access rights associated therewith, and a print job router configured to provide printing in response to receipt of the customized printer identifier and in accordance with the printer access rights.

Customized printer identifier with embedded access rights

An application manager may receive, from an application utilized at a device at a first location, a print job, the print job identifying a virtual print queue and application content to be printed, the application manager being further configured to store the print job in association with the virtual print queue. A print job router may receive, after the storing and from a mobile device at a second location, a print initiation identifying a printer at the second location and the print job, the print job router being further configured to send the application content to the identified printer, based on the print initiation.

Roving printing in a cloud-based print service using a mobile device

The embodiments provide a data processing system including a print dialog manager configured to provide a print dialog in response to receipt of a print request for content to be printed in accordance with at least one printing option from a user of an application associated with a device. The print dialog identifies at least one printer and provides the at least one printing option. The data processing system includes a print preview generator configured to generate a print preview providing the content displayed in accordance with the at least one printing option within the print dialog, and a user interface controller configured to receive a selection of the at least one printing option through the displayed content. The print preview generator is configured to change the displayed content of the print preview according to the selection of the at least one printing option received through the displayed content.

Print preview with cloud printing

The embodiments provide a print server including a cloud print service. The print server includes an application manager configured to receive a print request for content to be printed, over a network, from a user of an application associated with a device, and provide, over the network, a print dialog to the user. The print dialog is configured to identify at least one available printer associated with the cloud print service. The print server also includes an options translator configured to determine at least one printing option associated with the at least one available printer, and translate a native printer display format of the at least one printing option to a common protocol display format associated with the cloud print service. The options translator is configured to provide the common protocol display format for inclusion in the print dialog.

Semantic printing options

In one aspect, a method and apparatus is provided for reducing ink consumption when printing electronic documents. An electronic document is processed to identify different elements of the document, such as images, text blocks, and advertisements. Once the element identification is complete, a score is assigned to each one of the elements. The scores are then compared against a threshold T and only elements whose scores exceed the threshold T are printed. By filtering out some of the elements of the electronic document, the method and apparatus conserves ink and other printer consumables.

Method of content filtering to reduce ink consumption on printed web pages

The embodiments provide a print server including an application manager configured to receive, over a network, a print request for content to be printed in accordance with at least one selected printing option from an application associated with a device, and configured to provide a print dialog, over the network, to a user of the application in response to the print request, a pseudo preview generator configured to provide a pseudo print preview for display within the print dialog while a print preview is being generated, and a print preview generator configured to access the content in response to the print request and generate the print preview providing the at least a portion of the content displayed in accordance with at least one selected printing option, and further configured to transmit the print preview, over the network, for display within the print dialog thereby replacing the pseudo print preview.

Server providing pseudo print preview and final regular preview to device
