First Claim
1. A method for quantifying a measure of quality of a document, comprising:
- (a) measuring a predetermined set of characteristics of the document;
(b) quantizing the measured predetermined set of characteristics of the document; and
(c) generating a quantized eye-catching ability value for the document based on a predetermined combining function, the predetermined combining function combining the quantized measured predetermined set of characteristics, the quantized eye-catching ability value being a measure of quality of the document.

Abstract
Text, images, and/or graphics of electronic documents should be organized and laid out in a two-dimensional format for presentation to the viewer. The best such layout depends upon the content present, the creator'"'"'s intent, the output device, and the viewer'"'"'s interests. To analyze the qualitative nature of the layout in quantifiable terms, the electronic document is measure using various quantifiable factors; such as, balance, uniformity, white space management, alignment, consistency, legibility, etc.; that impact a qualitative nature of a document. Such quantifiable factors are then used to quantize the aesthetics, ease of use, eye-catching ability, interest, communicability, comfort, and convenience of the document.
