-We present a non-disruptively linking focus+context

-the relevant fragments of all link targets are

-originating document remains visible.

-The user interface techniques have been made possible
-by the features of modern graphics accelerators, including
-texture mapping and texture shading.
+Together, these techniques allow 
+all relevant fragments of all currently relevant link targets to be

 As an example, we show screenshots of a prototype for allowing
 structured user annotations between PDF files.
