          Appeal No. 2002-1960                                                        
          Application No. 08/821,321                                                  

          variable reading rate.  In that regard, contrary to the                     
          Examiner’s assertion, Parks determines changes to the script                
          based on reading speed associated with a certain audience and               
          Chippendale merely marks the script to indicate the number and              
          nature of recorded takes.                                                   
               We note that, similar to claim 1, independent claim 10 also            
          recites means for indicating the overflow text and the extent of            
          displaying it relative to the non-overflow text based on a                  
          variable reading rate.  Based on our analysis above, we find that           
          the Examiner has failed to set forth a prima facie case of                  
          obviousness and accordingly, the 35 U.S.C. § 103 rejection of               
          independent claims 1-10 over Klingler, Parks and Chippendale                
          cannot be sustained.
