Appeal 2007-0781
Application 10/003,150
a visual print of a specific image in a variety of formats and sizes,
such as photographic prints or enlargements of photographic prints,
and photographic merchandise including T-shirts, sweatshirts, mugs,
mouse pads, puzzles, ties, buttons, electronic slide shows, and other
items bearing the digital image.
It will be appreciated that when downloading or e-mailing a
digital image, the resolution of the digital image is preferably reduced
to a screen size of 600x400 pixels or 712x512 pixels. These sizes are
more appropriate for screen display of the digital images, and also
faster transfer of the data over a network.
3. Col. 9, ll. 53-65 of Garfinkle reads as follows:
When the photographer 8 uploads one or more digital images
directly to the image server 16, these images are either added to a set
of images already associated with an access code or the new images
are assigned a new unique access code. When a new access code is
assigned, a price sheet must be associated with these images in order
to provide to the photographer 8, the visual prints which may be
ordered using the new images. In a preferred embodiment, the
photographer 8 selects a fulfillment center 20 which they prefer to use
to fulfill all orders placed using the new images. A price sheet is
associated with each fulfillment center 20, and this price sheet forms
the basis for the products available to the photographer 8, and the
prices of these products.
4. Appellants argued that Garfinkle does not anticipate the claimed
subject matter because it does not teach (1) “a network-based printing
service retrieving a scaled-down version of a full-sized document to be
printed from at least one store via a network” [i.e., the first step of the
claimed method] (Appeal Br. 6-7) or (2) “the printing service determining
printing costs for printing the full-sized document based upon attributes of
the scaled-down version” [i.e., the third step of the claimed method] (Appeal
Br. 7-8).
