`
` Q. (By Mr. Lamberson) This bullet doesn't
`
`cause you to think that may have been the case?
`
` MR. FAHRENKROG: Objection to form.
`
` THE WITNESS: I -- I -- not from my
`
`understanding of this. 09:39
`
` Q. (By Mr. Lamberson) When you first started
`
`working on your preview capability, did somebody come
`
`to you and tell you, hey, you should work on a
`
`preview capability, or did you come up with that
`
`yourself? 09:39
`
` A. A preview capability. No one -- no one
`
`came to me and said "work on a preview capability."
`
` Q. Okay. What did they tell you to work on?
`
` MR. FAHRENKROG: Objection to form.
`
` THE WITNESS: Is the question around -- 09:40
`
`what time frame? What context?
`
` Q. (By Mr. Lamberson) Was there something
`
`that caused you to go and come up with the Real Time
`
`Preview functionality that you believe you invented?
`
` A. So, I do believe I invented it. And I 09:40
`
`would say that what caused me and the team members to
`
`come up with -- and work on this is -- I will go back
`
`to, I guess, the user experience of -- the experience
`
`of providing something that is going to be more
`
`easily understood, easier and faster for someone to 09:41

`
`accomplish, was a huge undertaking, I think, from the
`
`standards of why we, as a company, would invest so
`
`much in understanding how the user worked, what they
`
`were doing, where they were having troubles and
`
`challenges. 09:41
`
` And so it's through that process of
`
`engineering and working with and seeing others and
`
`talking with usability experts, people that see more
`
`of -- of those than I would, being more in a cubical
`
`writing code, working with others like Eric Johnson, 09:41
`
`being able to come together and say, what can we do
`
`to improve the user experience? Or, maybe said a
`
`different way, what can we do to make it so that a
`
`user can accomplish their tasks faster, more
`
`accurately, and with a higher level of confidence and 09:42
`
`less frustration? That was always something we were
`
`trying to work on doing.
`
` And, you know, the -- the uber-release, if
`
`you will, of Real Time Preview was able to do all of
`
`those at one time because it actually gave the user 09:42
`
`the confidence, the ease of use, that visual feedback
`
`with no questions of how it was going to look,
`
`because they saw it as they were going through the
`
`process in their mind of changing it. Which is
`
`why -- I guess when we put it together and we start 09:42

`
`prototyping ideas of modifying the actual document
`
`itself, not a small preview window that might show
`
`something like just a font type or a font size, but
`
`actually modifying the user's document that had
`
`everything they cared most about. 09:43
`
` And when we were able to do that and give
`
`them instant feedback, that was the "ah-hah" moment
`
`that we saw. And we knew we were on to something
`
`much, much different than just showing in a document
`
`and then allowing a person to go through clicks and 09:43
`
`clicks and clicks and undos and undos and undos.
`
`Even though the result was the same when you printed
`
`it, the experience of actually being able to do it
`
`faster, more accurately, and with more confidence
`
`was -- was what we knew we had once we saw that. 09:43
`
` And so it's the culmination of a couple of
`
`engineers doing their job and the usability person
`
`working with us -- and I couldn't tell you the exact
`
`moment that it happened as far as the day, but it's
`
`that experience where that explosion happened, I 09:44
`
`guess. And that's -- that's when the patent, if you
`
`will, or the Real Time Preview -- which, of course,
`
`we didn't call it that then -- that's when it
`
`blossomed.
`
` Q. Why was it important to modify the actual 09:44

`
`document itself rather than a preview of the
`
`document?
`
` MR. FAHRENKROG: Objection to form.
`
` THE WITNESS: So -- important. The reason
`
`that we felt that we had something much different was 09:44
`
`because, what does the user care about most? They
`
`care about actually what they're creating. They want
`
`to make it look right. And so because we're working
`
`on the actual document, the actual text, the actual
`
`creation in their mind as happening at that time, 09:45
`
`that was important compared to looking at -- in fact,
`
`even distracting the user in probably a different way
`
`to help them through a series of tasks, like
`
`selecting the font type, going from a Times to an
`
`Arial to a -- to a -- you know, whatever other type, 09:45
`
`seeing that in a window somewhere else was good. It
`
`helped them on their path where they wanted to go.
`
` But if you used Real Time Preview, you
`
`could keep your focus, your energy, and your tasks
`
`set on your real document, which we believe -- and 09:45
`
`I'll use the word was more important or was helping
`
`them through their process, which it's important for
`
`them to complete it quickly, it's important for them
`
`to complete it accurately, and it's important for
`
`them to be able to have confidence that's it's going 09:46

`
`to really, you know, print and be what it looks like.
`
`So it was easier to do it that way. So that was an
`
`important part of it.
`
` Q. (By Mr. Lamberson) Are there any
`
`drawbacks to actually modifying the active document 09:46
`
`with something that the user may not ultimately
`
`decide to apply to the document?
`
` MR. FAHRENKROG: Objection to form.
`
` THE WITNESS: Any drawbacks? So there
`
`is -- I guess I -- I probably couldn't answer that. 09:46
`
`I mean, all we're doing is providing something for
`
`them in a different timing and a different user
`
`experience. They could still get to it if they
`
`turned off our feature and wanted to go click, click,
`
`click, click, click, click. 09:47
`
` And then -- so I don't know if there was a
`
`drawback. I would say it was totally opposite. I
`
`would say it was a totally, you know, opposite of a
`
`drawback. Because they were actually being able to
`
`then make their decision process more quickly and 09:47
`
`with more confidence, and they really got it to look
`
`the way they wanted it to.
`
` Q. (By Mr. Lamberson) So you're not aware of
`
`any way the file, for example, could become corrupted
`
`through a change that was made by a preview that 09:47
