                                  DECISION ON APPEAL                                   
               This is a decision on appeal from the final rejection of                
          claims 5 through 7, all claims pending in this application.                  
          The invention relates to a method of producing graphic                       
          images.  The current state of a graphics environment is                      
          specified by a collection of information fields and is                       
          modified at times by an image source.  A record is maintained                
          of a previous state of the graphics environment, and the                     
          current state of the graphics environment is compared to the                 

                                          1
