          Application No. 08/147,143                                                  


          pertinent part a “handwriting recognizer for recognizing and                
          converting handwriting on the display screen into at least one              
          predetermined format.”  (Amendment A at 7.)                                 


               The references would have suggested the handwriting                    
          recognizer.  As aforementioned, Capps recognizes a handwritten              
          words entered into a PDA.  It converts the note from a                      
          handwritten ink object I, fig. 4a, to a word object W in a                  
          predetermined format.  Fig. 4b.  Therefore, we find the                     
          references would have suggested the handwriting recognizer of               
          claim 37.
