Integrated development environment IDE (), method and computer system for developing user interface documents. An editor () is used for editing a user interface document. An adaptation engine () generates device class specific representations of the user interface document. Each device class specific representation refers to a respective device class. Device class dependent tools () of the IDE () are used for generating device class specific information and providing it to the author. Device class specific information can be information about the complexity of the user interface by device class provided by a complexity indicator (), information about how many pages are generated for which device class provided by a device class dependent view () or information about the layout for various device classes provided by a frames layouting view ().

Method and computer system for document authoring

Methods and computer systems are provided for authoring documents. In one implementation, a computer system is provided that comprises an editor for editing a UI document, a pagination engine for paginating the UI document, and a pagination display for displaying a paginated document representation with respect to the UI document. The editor may be interfaced to the pagination engine so that the pagination engine paginates the user interface description document while being edited for a plurality of device categories. Further, the pagination engine may be interfaced to the pagination display so that the pagination display displays a paginated document representation for each device category with respect to the current editing status of the UI document.
