Method and apparatus for displaying a handwritten message based on position and time data
First Claim
1. A method for presentation of a graphical representation of a handwritten message on a screen, comprising:
- receiving position data which indicates positions for the handwritten message wherein the position data graphically represents the handwritten message,receiving time data, which for each position of the handwritten message indicates a point of time for the creation of the handwritten message in this position,identifying a plurality of image areas in the graphical representation of the handwritten message based on said position data and said time data, the size of each image area being smaller than the graphical representation of the complete handwritten message,determining an ordering of said plurality of image areas based on said time data, andproviding display data to said screen, wherein said display data comprises a sequence of the plurality of image areas to be displayed on said screen according to said ordering,wherein the handwritten message is a hard copy representation created on a position-coding pattern.

Abstract
A method and an arrangement for presentation of a graphical representation of a handwritten message on a graphical screen. Position data and time data are recorded, indicating positions and points of time for the handwritten message. An image area in the graphical representation of the handwritten message is identified based on said position data and said time data, the size of the image area being a subportion of the graphical representation of the handwritten message. Finally, display data is provided to a screen, which display data comprises a graphical representation of the subportion of the handwritten message in the identified image area.
