                ST. JOHN COURTENAY III, Administrative Patent Judges.                                          
                COURTENAY, Administrative Patent Judge.                                                        
                               ORDER REMANDING TO THE EXAMINER                                                 
                      We note that Appellants have introduced a new argument in the Reply                      
                Brief.  Specifically, Appellants argue that the Aschenbrenner reference (U.S.                  
                Pat. 5,406,310) does not disclose the recited limitation “wherein dynamic                      
                sizing of color tables occurs” (See independent claims 1, 8, and 14; see also                  
                Reply Brief 3).
