Appeal 2007-0610 Application 09/766,357 for advantageously providing a useful tool for automatically arranging and sizing document elements (Mohr at Col. 3, L. 45- 48). Answer 5. 3. Appellant argues that “Mohr does not teach or suggest an optimization model to customize the layout areas for customers, wherein the optimization model that is used to customize the layout areas is at least one of a transportation model, a network model, or a generalized network model.” Appeal Br. 17. C. Principles of Law We incorporate herein the principles of law under the Principles of Law section for the rejection of claims 1, 8-10, 17-19, 26, and 27 above. D. Analysis Appellant’s arguments as to claim 2 are the same as that argued for the patentability of claim 1. FF 3. Accordingly for the same reasons we used to affirm the rejection of claim 1, we affirm the rejection of claim 2. E. Conclusion of Law On the record before us, Appellant has failed to show that the Examiner erred in rejecting claims 2, 11, and 20 over the prior art. 17Page: Previous 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 16 17 18 19 20 21 22 Next
