          Appeal No. 96-1190                                                            
          Application 07/950,177                                                        

          sequence referred to by the examiner.  Accordingly, we find                   
          that Katsuyama does not anticipate claims 22-24.  The                         
          rejection of claims 22-24 is reversed.                                        
               As to the fourth limitation of claim 25, "displaying only                
          the characters representing numerals for human review and                     
          storing signals representative of other characters without                    
          human review," the examiner refers only to "figure 28 : 43"                   
          (EA12).  Element 43 in figure 28 is a display.  Katsuyama                     
          apparently displays all the characters for possible correction                
          in a correction mode (col. 23, lines 24-33).  We find no                      
          description of the selective displaying of only numerals as                   
          recited in claim 25, nor does the examiner explain how such                   
          limitation is disclosed by Katsuyama.  Accordingly, we find                   
          that Katsuyama does not anticipate claims 25 and 26.  The                     
          rejection of claims 25 and 26 is reversed.                                    
                                      CONCLUSION                                        
               The rejection of claims 17-26 is reversed.                               
                                       REVERSED                                         






                                        - 10 -
