Appl. No.:

10/173852

Inventors:

Andrew M. Daniels - Menlo Park CA, US
David Opstad - Mountain View CA, US
Deborah Goldsmith - Los Gatos CA, US

Assignee:

Apple Computer, Inc. - Cupertino CA

International Classification:

G06K015/00

US Classification:

358 111, 358 11

Abstract:

A font synchronization system ensures that fonts which are specified in the creation of a document are the same as those that are employed in the subsequent handling and printing of the document. Each font that is utilized within a document, or available in a printing system, is characterized by a font reference that unambiguously identifies significant features of the font. Font references associated with a document are compared with those available on a computer resource, to see if two fonts are the same in all significant respects. If the fonts are not the same, the comparison process identifies the areas of difference between them, so that a determination can be made whether such differences are critical to the appearance of the document. A number of font references are encapsulated within a font profile, to identify the fonts that are available for use within a particular environment, such as a service bureau. The font profiles can be employed by document creators to limit their choices for fonts to those which will be ultimately available when the document is printed.

US Classification:

715863

Abstract:

Methods, systems, devices, and apparatus, including computer program products, for inputting text. A user interface element is presented on a touch-sensitive display of a device. The user interface element is associated with a plurality of characters, at least a subset of which is associated with respective gestures. A user input performing a gesture with respect to the user interface element is received. The character from the subset that is associated with the gesture performed with respect to the user interface element is inputted.

International Classification:

G06F 17/30

US Classification:

715797, 707E1707

Abstract:

A system, a computer readable storage medium including instructions, and computer-implemented method for displaying at least one word based on a sequence of keyboard events. A sequence of keyboard events representing keystrokes is received. The sequence of keyboard events is processed by: accessing and traversing nodes of a trie data structure in accordance with the sequence of keyboard events and upon arriving at a word node of the trie data structure, identifying one or more corresponding words to be displayed, and displaying at least one word of the one or more corresponding words to be displayed.
