    摘要: The present invention includes a document control interface method for graphical message document computer software. The method is performed by a computer system executing graphical message document software for creating relatively brief documents, such as greeting cards, having relatively simple text and graphics elements. The method includes providing a user with an iconographic interface that allows a user to access directly selected portions of a graphical message document. A preferred embodiment of this invention includes rendering a selection icon for each of multiple pages of a graphical message document being edited. Each of the selection icons is separately selectable by a user with a conventional input device, such as a mouse or some other cursor control device.
