Abstract: Systems, methods, and computer-readable media are described for generating a customized lightweight web font corresponding to web content and providing the lightweight font to a requesting client device to enable the client device to render the web content using the customized lightweight font. The customized lightweight font only includes glyphs corresponding to those characters that appear in the web content. The file size of the lightweight web font is substantially less than the file size of the complete web font, and thus, there is substantially less latency and overhead associated with downloading the lightweight web font as compared to downloading the entire web font. A glyph demanding assessment can be performed to identify a set of characters contained in the web content such that corresponding glyphs can be extracted from the web font and used to generate the customized lightweight web font.

Abstract: Various embodiments utilize a layout viewport and a visual viewport separate from the layout viewport. The layout viewport is utilized for such things as page layout operations and reporting Document Object Model values to script. The layout viewport can be thought of as an initial rectangle which is equivalent in size to the initial containing block. The initial containing block is a containing block that contains web content that is initially visible to the user. The visual viewport is separate from the layout viewport and is allowed to be freely manipulated relative to the layout viewport. For example, the visual viewport may “push” the layout viewport around when it collides with the layout viewport boundaries. The visual viewport can be thought of as the rectangle that is visible to the user.

Abstract: A magnifier movement system is described herein that provides a more user-friendly experience for users of natural input devices when moving the magnifier and interacting with magnified user interface elements. The system receives an indication that a user has touched the screen with a natural input device at a particular location. The system displays a drag control for moving the magnifier, but does not move the magnifier unless the user selects the drag control and moves the natural input device. If the drag control is unselected and the system receives additional natural input, then the system passes the input on to the magnified application. Thus, the magnifier movement system provides a more satisfying user experience for users of natural input-based computer systems and screen magnifiers.

Abstract: A process is set forth for viewing an enlarged area of an image. The image is stored on a server and re-sized for viewing on a mobile communication device based on screen size and color display capabilities of the device.

The process allows users to quickly retrieve any relevant part of a large image attachment that has been resized by the server. This minimizes bandwidth usage, device memory/CPU consumption, and request/response latency while still allowing the user to view an image area in its original level of detail.
