corresponding class of pixel representation defects. A set of
defective pixel representations is generated wherein the pixel
representation defects are those belonging to the defect class or
classes specified by the defect class parameters. In this
manner, the set of defective pixel representations to be
generated can be specifically tailored to user-selectable classes
of pixel representation defects.
We reject the appellant’s argument that Leung "has nothing

Variations in the slope of the strokes of Chinese characters and
