Appeal 2007-0014
Application 10/202,227
Kiyoujima.) "Formatting" the cases in Koski is not the same as "modifying . . . the
selected document to correspond to the inputted features," because formatting has
nothing to do with inputted features. Koski only creates a new case when there is
not a sufficiently close match within the case base and after there is a final
resolution of the case (col. 4, ll. 8-12); it does not modify a case to create a new
case based on the inputted features. The views in Koski have no relationship to the
input attributes.
Appellant argues that Kiyoujima also fails to teach or suggest that the
selected document is modified to correspond to the inputted features to create an
electronic document to be used in creating a new electronic document because
Kiyoujima teaches that the selected document is modified based on a program
(Br. 6). The Examiner responds that Koski is relied upon for these limitations
(Answer 8). We find that Koski does not teach these limitations.
For these reasons, the rejection of claim 1 is reversed. Claims 2-5 and 11
depend from claim 1 and the rejection of these claims must also be reversed.
