Embodiments of the disclosed innovations provide systems and methods for automatically locating and retrieving digital supplemental materials and counterparts of rendered documents. These systems and methods are especially useful when the provider or copyright holder of the digital document charges a fee for access to the digital materials. Some embodiments solve the technical problem of allowing a user to access restricted digital content associated with a rendered document via a search string captured from the rendered document. Some embodiments further provide automatic intermediation to gain access to protected digital materials.
We claim: 1. A method in a computing system, comprising: receiving scan information of textual portions of a rendered document as generated by a scanner operated by a user; receiving identification information associated with the user from the scanner operated by the user; when the received identif
We claim: 1. A method in a computing system, comprising: receiving scan information of textual portions of a rendered document as generated by a scanner operated by a user; receiving identification information associated with the user from the scanner operated by the user; when the received identification information is associated with billing information: searching for digital content based on the received scan information; sending results of the search to the user; and billing the user based on the billing information. 2. The method of claim 1, wherein the user is billed in response to sending the results of the search to the user. 3. The method of claim 1, further comprising: receiving payment from the user in response to the billing, and, in response to receiving the payment, sending the results of the search to the user. 4. The method of claim 1, wherein billing the user further comprises billing a content provider that subsidizes some or all of a cost of searching for digital content or sending the results of the search. 5. The method of claim 4, wherein billing the content provider further comprises billing the content provider when pre-determined words or phrases associated with the content provider are searched or are within the search results. 6. The method of claim 5, further comprising: modifying the search results based on the pre-determined words or phrases associated with the content provider. 7. The method of claim 1, wherein the received billing information comprises billing information received from the scanner operated by the user. 8. A method in a computing system, comprising: receiving scan information related to scanned portions of a rendered document, wherein the scanned portions are portions of the rendered document that contain text that are captured by a scanner operated by a user; receiving billing information associated with the use from the scanner operated by the user; searching for digital content related to the received scan information; sending results of the search to the user; and using the billing information to bill the user for the search. 9. A method in a computing system, comprising: receiving scan information of textual portions of a rendered document generated by a scanner operated by a user; searching for digital content related to the received scan information; sending results of the search to the user; and billing a content provider based on billing information received from the scanner and based on pre-determined words or phrases associated with the content provider that are contained in the search or the search results. 10. The method of claim 9, wherein sending the results comprises: modifying the results of the search to prioritize digital content associated with the content provider; and sending the modified results to the user. 11. A system comprising: a scan component that receives scan information representing textual portions of a rendered document generated by a scanner operated by a user, the scan component being in data communication with at least one of a public or private data network; an identification component that receives from the scanner identification information associated with the user; a search component that searches digital content using the received scan information, if the received identification information is associated with billing information; a search result component that sends results of the search to the user; and a billing component that bills the user based on the billing information. 12. A method in a computing system of initiating payment for a transaction made with a handheld data capture device, comprising: receiving a subscriber identifier stored in the handheld data capture device, wherein the handheld data capture device is configured to capture text-based portions of rendered documents; identifying a relationship between a subscriber and the handheld data capture device using the subscriber identifier; and billing the subscriber having the identified relationship. 13. The method of claim 12, wherein the subscriber identifier is an identifier associated with the handheld data capture device, and the subscriber is identified based on the identifier associated with the handheld data capture device. 14. The method of claim 12, further comprising: receiving an indication of a text capture operation performed on a rendered document by the subscriber; and identifying the relationship in response to the received indication. 15. The method of claim 12, further comprising: transmitting digital content associated with the text capture operation to the subscriber in response to the identified relationship. 16. A system for accessing electronic content stored on a restricted access network, comprising: a scan component that receives scan information, the scan information representing a textual portion of a rendered document captured via a handheld scanner; an identification component that uses the received scan information to identify an electronic version of the rendered document and to identify a source of the rendered document; and a purchase component that purchases the identified electronic version of the rendered document from the identified source when the identified source is associated with the restricted access network. 17. The system of claim 16, wherein the handheld scanner is part of a cell phone.
