Patent

CA 2154508

A word processing object on a data processing system has a body consisting of text (and perhaps graphics). The body has right and left side margins. A user can select a location in the body and provide an annotation in a side margin. The annotation is located adjacent to the selected body location. The annotation is associated with the selected body location so that subsequent editing or pagination of the body maintains the annotation adjacent to the selected body location. The annotation can contain text and graphics. The annotation can be edited. The annotation can be displayed and printed either by itself or in context with the body. The annotation can also be formatted to be displayed or printed in a form different from the body. The annotation can be made to appear in alternating side margins (for example, left margin, right margin, left margin, etc.) of successive pages of the body.
