ABSTRACT:
A method for simultaneously constructing and displaying a dynamic preview display of a document. The method provides an accurate representation of the preview of the document and of the customized document itself. An initial preview display of the document is drawn displaying actual text as opposed to symbolic representations of text. A user then changes the characteristics of the preview display of the document and an updated preview display of the document is drawn after changing the characteristics of the preview display of the document. The update of the preview display is performed by the same drawing method used to draw the initial preview display of the document. Finally, an accurate customized document is output to an application program when there are no more desired changes to the characteristics of the preview display of the document. The output of the accurate customized document is performed by the same drawing method used to draw the initial preview display of the document and the updated preview of the document.
