Abstract
An implementation of a technology, described herein, for enhancing the reading experience of electronically stored documents on electronic display devices. Unlike the conventional virtual paging paradigms, this technology intelligently examines the content of a fixed electronic document at (or near) a boundary of virtual pages. It determines whether that content includes lines of text. If it does, then it moves the virtual page boundary to white space between lines rather than splitting a line of text or displaying overlap. This action intelligently avoids splitting a line of text. Alternatively, if it cannot determine whether that content includes lines of text, then it produces an overlap, but it softly lowlights the overlap. This indicates that the reader need not read the content of the overlap because it either will be repeated or was repeated. This abstract itself is not intended to limit the scope of this patent. The scope of the present invention is pointed out in the appending claims.
