Appeal No. 1999-0233
Application No. 08/787,893
3. In claim 7, line 1 “spaced relationship” should obviously be
“registration” for conformity with the language of parent claim
2.
4. Appellant acknowledges as admitted prior art a core wound
paper product over 700 inches, where registration between indicia
and lines of termination is a recognized consideration
(specification, page 2). Further, acceptable registration error
of about 0.125 is recognized. The examiner should determine
whether it would have been obvious to one having ordinary skill
in the art to provide for a registration error of about 0.125 for
a core wound paper product, remembering that a product and not a
process is being claimed.
In summary, this panel of the board has not sustained the
rejection of appellant’s claims. Additionally, we have remanded
the application to the examiner.
