Abstract

We observe that paper is still the dominant means to transport information. In particular, for the communication between governmental authorities and citizens paper based documents still play a vital role. In this paper we discuss ideas how documents can be designed so that they can adapt almost automatically to an actual reader. Therefore, we describe an approach to design documents and governmental forms so that they may change their appearance in accordance to the preferences of their recipients. This allows the creation of documents that can better be understood by different target groups, among them elderly people, people with visual impairments or people with dyslexia.
