ATLANTA Online technology firm Activ8now and its operating company, Active8media, filed a lawsuit Monday in U.S. District Court for the Northern District of Georgia in Atlanta for patent infringement and trade secret misappropriation against Advance Publications in New York.

Activ8now owns several patents for producing interactive electronic versions of magazine advertisements. According to the suit, Advance Publications-owned Conde Nast entered into a license agreement with Active8now to use the Atlanta company’s technology for the September 2004 issue of Vogue.
