                Application 09/838,365

                      instructions for identifying an initial image to be displayed in an                    
                electronic document;                                                                         
                      instructions for explicitly providing references to alternate images of                
                the initial image within the same electronic document, wherein the alternate                 
                images differ from the initial image in size and resolution, and wherein the                 
                alternate images are different-sized versions of the initial image;

                      instructions for providing a selector for accessing the alternate                      
                images; and                                                                                  
                      responsive to receiving user selection input, instructions for replacing               
                the initial image with an alternate image and reformatting the electronic                    
                document.                                                                                    

                      The prior art relied upon by the Examiner in rejecting the claims on                   
                appeal is:                                                                                   
                Blumberg   US 6,708,309 B1   Mar. 16, 2004                                                   
                Scott    US 2002/0000998 A1  Jan. 3, 2002                                                    
                Rejection:                                                                                   
                      All of the claims, 1 to 18, stand rejected under 35 U.S.C. § 103(a) for                
                being obvious over Scott in view of Blumberg.                                                
                      Appellants contend that the claimed subject matter is not rendered                     
                obvious by Scott in combination with Blumberg as the references fail to                      
                disclose key limitations of the claims.  The Examiner contends that each of                  
                the claims is properly rejected.                                                             



                                                     3
