# Types of Summaries

The Content component can automatically generate one of these summary types for the results it produces. It generates all summaries in real time.

- Concept. A conceptual summary of each result document. A concept summary contains sentences that are typical of the result content (these sentences can be from different parts of the result document).

- Context. A conceptual summary of each result document, biased by any terms in the query Text and FieldText parameters. A context summary contains sentences that are particularly relevant to the terms in the query. These sentences can be from different parts of the result document.

  NOTE: To ensure that the summary contains the query terms, use the Characters action parameter, rather than Sentences. You can also use the MaxSourceCharacters configuration parameter to use more than the first 10,000 characters of a document to generate summaries.

- Quick. A brief summary of each result document. A quick summary contains the first few sentences of the result document.

- ParagraphConcept. A conceptual summary of each result document. The summary contains the paragraphs that are most typical of the content of the result document. These paragraphs can be from different parts of the result document.

- ParagraphContext. A conceptual paragraph summary of each result document, biased by any terms in the query Text and FieldText parameters. This summary contains paragraphs that are particularly relevant to the terms in the query.
