          Appeal No. 2005-0074                                                        
          Application No. 09/739,080                                                  

          device.  We additionally note that the central image server 20              
          may also be considered a “web client” since data is transmitted             
          from data acquisition unit 22 to file server 20 (col. 6, ll. 49-            
          53), thus falling within the scope of a “web client” as properly            
          construed above.                                                            
               With regard to the rejection of claim 49, appellants argue             
          that the cited image server 20 of D’Entremont is illustrated as             
          being separate from recording unit 14 and thus is not a component           
          of an ID card personalization device as claimed (Brief, page 14).           
          We again refer to and adopt the examiner’s reasoning that the               
          “web client” is connected to and a component of the device                  
          (Answer, page 9).                                                           
               For the foregoing reasons and those stated in the Answer, we           
          affirm the examiner’s rejection of claims 33 and 49 under section           
          102(b) over D’Entremont.                                                    
               E.  The Rejections under § 103(a)                                      
               The examiner adopts the findings from OrdaCard and Provost             
          as previously discussed (Answer, pages 5-6).  With regard to the            
          rejection over OrdaCard, the examiner further finds that Knowlton           
          discloses the use of a web page containing links to information,            
          where the links employ the “universally used common language as             
          HTML” (Answer, page 6).  With regard to the rejection over                  
                                         11
