First Claim
Patent Images
1. A structured document stored in a computer-readable memory medium, the structured document comprising:
- text for plural pages, wherein the text for each page is delimited by plural element types respectively defining at least one of vector graphic shapes of figures and text, and wherein each element type has an opening tag and a corresponding closing tag which collectively conform to a document type definition that defines rules for the plural element types; and
page-information text which is delimited by page-information element types each defining an identifier for a page and a location for the page in the structured document for the text for a corresponding page of the plural pages of the structured document;
wherein the location provides direct access to a page in the structured document independent of parsing of all of the plural pages of the structured document.

14. A viewer for rendering at least one of vector graphic shapes of figures and text based on a structured document including text for plural pages, wherein the text for each page is delimited by plural element types each having an opening tag and a corresponding closing tag which collectively conform to a document type definition that defines rules for the plural element types, comprising:
-
a parsing device that detects a current page from plural pages, obtains a location of text in the structured document corresponding to the current page in reference to page-information text in the structured document, wherein the page-information text includes an identifier for the current page and a location for the current page in the structured document, and parses text in the structured document at the location corresponding to the current page; and an output device that outputs a vector graphic shape which is rendered on the basis of the text parsed by the parsing device. - View Dependent Claims (15)

16. A method of rendering at least one of vector graphic shapes of figures and text based on a structured document including text for plural pages, wherein the text for each page is delimited by plural element types each having an opening tag and a corresponding closing tag which collectively conform to a document type definition that defines rules for the plural element types, comprising the steps of:
-
detecting a current page from plural pages, obtaining a location of page-information text in the structured document, wherein the page-information text includes an identifier for the current page and a location for the current page in the structured document, parsing text at the location in the structured document corresponding to the current page, outputting a vector graphic shape which is rendered on the basis of the parsed page description text. - View Dependent Claims (17)

18. Computer readable medium for storing a program which performs a method of rendering at least one of vector graphic shapes of figures and text based on a structured document including text for plural pages, wherein the text for each page is delimited by plural element types each having an opening tag and a corresponding closing tag which collectively conform to a document type definition that defines rules for the plural element types, the method comprising the steps of:
-
detecting a current page from plural pages, obtaining a location of page-information text in the structured document, wherein the page information text includes an identifier for the current page and a location for the current page in the structured document, parsing text at the location in the structured document corresponding to the current page, and outputting a vector graphic shape which is rendered on the basis of the parsed page description text. - View Dependent Claims (19)
