`
`
`
`PLAINTIFF COREL SOFTWARE,
`LLC’S SECOND AMENDED AND
`SUPPLEMENTAL RESPONSES TO
`DEFENDANT MICROSOFT
`CORPORATION’S FIRST SET OF
`INTERROGATORIES
`
`COREL SOFTWARE, LLC,
`
`Plaintiff,

`
`Corel Exhibit 2010
`Microsoft v. Corel
`IPR2016-01084
`
`
`
`INTERROGATORY NO. 6:
`
`Describe in detail the factual and legal bases and supporting evidence for any
`
`secondary indicia of non-obviousness (e.g., alleged copying of the invention by Microsoft
`
`or others, failure of others, long felt need, unexpected results, commercial success,
`
`skepticism of experts, industry acclaim or acquiescence of competitors) You contend
`
`exists relating to any Asserted Claim(s).
`
`COREL’S SECOND SUPPLEMENTAL OBJECTIONS AND ANSWER TO
`
`INTERROGATORY NO. 6 [CONFIDENTIAL – ATTORNEYS’ EYES ONLY]:
`
`Corel objects to the extent this interrogatory seeks Privileged Materials. No
`
`Privileged Materials will be produced. Corel objects to the extent that the list of
`
`secondary indicia of non-obviousness in this interrogatory is not exhaustive of the types
`
`of such indicia. Corel objects to this Interrogatory as seeking a legal conclusion. As noted
`
`above, Corel objects to the definition of “Asserted Claims” as overbroad, unduly
`
`
`
`
`14
`
`
`
`burdensome, and as contravening the Local Patent Rules. Corel further objects that
`
`discovery is continuing, and Corel reserves the right to supplement, amend, and/or
`
`materially modify this response in all respects.
`
`Subject to the foregoing general and specific objections, Corel responds as
`
`follows:
`
`Copying: As evidenced at least by Corel’s Initial Infringement Contentions, Corel
`
`believes Microsoft copied the features recited in Corel’s claims, also closely tracking
`
`Corel’s name for the invention – “Real Time Preview,” by actively branding and
`
`promotion its own feature as “Live Preview.” As shown in Exhibit 2 to Corel’s Initial
`
`Infringement Contentions, over time Microsoft has increased the number of
`
`implementations of the Live Preview feature in its software products. Additional
`
`evidence of Microsoft’s copying is evidenced by the fact that Microsoft’s own documents
`
`show Microsoft was aware of, analyzed, and desired to incorporate Corel’s RealTime
`
`Preview feature. See MS_COREL_00015774 (Corel Dep. Ex. 16 and Corel Dep. Ex. 43),
`
`MS_COREL_00222073 (Corel Dep. Ex. 29), MS_COREL_00222085 (Corel Dep. Ex.
`
`28), MS_COREL_00211540 (Corel Dep. Ex. 86), MS_COREL_00223020 (Corel Dep.
`
`Ex. 85), and MS_COREL_00302147 (Corel Dep. Ex. 127); see also Sarah Gist Dep. Tr.
`
`at 174:21-176:1; Jacob Jaffe Dep. Tr. at 155:3-161:1, 192:7-193:25, 196:13-200:22;
`
`Aaron Butcher Dep. Tr. of at 221:3-236:7, 238:19-241:18; and Lee Hunt Dep. Tr. at
`
`133:25-139:7.
`
`Failure of Others & Long Felt Need: Microsoft’s prior attempts to provide a
`
`user with a preview of proposed formatting changes, a “preview pane,”
`
`
`
`
`15
`
`
`
`(MS_COREL_00015774 at 775-776) was a failure as Microsoft ultimately chose to
`
`incorporate Corel’s claimed inventions in Microsoft’s Live Preview feature. As
`
`evidenced by the Asserted Patents’ file histories, the failed “preview pane” or “viewing
`
`window” approach was also attempted by many other companies. Microsoft’s former
`
`Director of Microsoft Windows User Experience & Incubation Labs Group and Lead
`
`Program Manager, Microsoft Office and Outlook User Experience, Jensen Harris, also
`
`stated that it was “a huge challenge for our engineering team to build Live Preview into
`
`the wide variety of Office features; each of the applications has had its own unique set of
`
`compications [sic.].” MS_COREL_00014757 at 758.
`
`Commercial Success:
`
`The commercial success of the claimed inventions is evidenced by the sales of the
`
`Accused Products and the sales of the Corel Corporation products embodying the claimed
`
`inventions (noted above). The commercial success of the claimed inventions is also
`
`evidenced the vast and ever increasing implementations of Live Preview or related
`
`features in the Accused Products. (See, e.g., Exhibit 2 to Corel’s Initial Infringement
`
`Contentions). Microsoft’s own documents evidence that Microsoft and its consumers
`
`both loved the feature when it was added to Microsoft’s Accused Products. (See, e.g.,
`
`
`
`
`16
`
`
`
`
`
`MS_COREL_00000040 at 040; see also MS_COREL_00000314 at 350 (“Users love it”
`
`and “In-Ribbon galleries were designed especially to use Live Preview”),
`
`MS_COREL_00000646 (comparing the new user interface, including the use of Live
`
`Preview in the ribbon galleries, to former the user interface including Clippit, and noting
`
`that “[s]traightforward is better than clever.”) MS_COREL_00001492 (“The Value of
`
`Live Previews” is that “Live Preview is CORE to the Fluent UI experience; not a ‘nice to
`
`have’, not ‘just animation’. LP makes Fluent shine!”; “Feedback from Office 2007
`
`shows…Customers LOVE it! They really miss it in the galleries which don’t preview.
`
`They want us to add many more Live Previewing galleries in O14.”)
`
`Industry Acclaim
`
`Upon the initial release of Corel Office 2000, the first Corel product to incorporate
`
`Real Time Preview, the industry reviews of the Real Time Preview feature were positive
`
`and included much acclaim. See COREL0007907, COREL0007910, COREL0007913,
`
`COREL0007915, COREL0007918, COREL0007920, COREL0007923,
`
`COREL0007926, and COREL0007928.
`
`
`
`
`17
`
`
`
`Acquiescence of Competitors
`
`Despite Microsoft’s initial assessment that its “preview pane” was sufficient, and
`
`that a feature copying Corel’s Real Time Preview was not necessary,
`
`(MS_COREL_00015774 at 775-776) Microsoft ultimately acquiesced and implemented
`
`its “Live Preview” feature in its Office 2007 products, and has continued to expand its
`
`implementations of “Live Preview” ever since.
