Electronic display content fitting
View Patent ↗An embodiment provides a device, including: a display device; a processor operatively coupled to the receiver; and a memory comprising instructions that are executed by the processor to: analyze a received communication comprising one or more words to identify text characters; identify a shortened representation for display of one or more of the text characters; shorten the one or more of the text characters using the shortened representation; and output display data including the shortened representation to the display device. Other embodiments are described and claimed.
1. A device, comprising: a display device;
a processor operatively coupled to a receiver; and
a memory comprising instructions that are executed by the processor to:
analyze a received communication comprising one or more words to identify text characters;
identify a non-synonym shortened representation for display of one or more of the text characters, wherein the shortened representation is selected based on display size and is identified based upon a shortening technique provided by a user and wherein the shortening technique corresponds a content type of the text characters, wherein the shortened representation comprises selectively resized portions of the one or more text characters to a smaller font size;
shorten the one or more of the text characters using the shortened representation; and
output display data including the shortened representation to the display device.
2. The device of claim 1 , wherein to shorten the one or more of the text characters comprises including the shortened representation in place of the one or more of the text characters.
3. The device of claim 1 , wherein the shortened representation is a text character string having one or more characters removed there-from.
4. The device of claim 3 , wherein the one or more characters removed includes at least one vowel.
5. The device of claim 1 , wherein the shortened representation is an icon.
6. The device of claim 1 , wherein the shortened representation is determined based on a predetermined rule.
7. The device of claim 6 , wherein the predetermined rule is influenced by input of a user.
8. The device of claim 1 , further comprising a receiver that receives wireless communications including the received communication.
9. The device of claim 1 , wherein the instructions are executed by the processor to display one or more original text characters replaced by the shortened representation.
10. A method, comprising:
analyzing a received communication comprising one or more words to identify text characters;
identifying a non-synonym shortened representation for display of one or more of the text characters, wherein the shortened representation is selected based on display size and is identified based upon a shortening technique provided by a user and wherein the shortening technique corresponds a content type of the text characters, wherein the shortened representation comprises selectively resized portions of the one or more text characters to a smaller font size;
shortening the one or more of the text characters using the shortened representation; and
outputting display data including the shortened representation to a display device.
11. The method of claim 10 , wherein the shortening the one or more of the text characters comprises including the shortened representation in place of the one or more of the text characters.
12. The method of claim 10 , wherein the shortened representation is a text character string having one or more characters removed there-from.
13. The method of claim 12 , wherein the one or more characters removed includes at least one vowel.
14. The method of claim 10 , wherein the shortened representation is an icon.
15. The method of claim 10 , wherein the shortened representation is determined based on a predetermined rule.
16. The method of claim 15 , wherein the predetermined rule is influenced by input of a user.
17. A program product, comprising:
a computer readable storage device having computer readable program code, the computer readable program code being executable by a processor and comprising:
code that analyzes a received communication comprising one or more words to identify text characters;
code that identifies a non-synonym shortened representation for display of one or more of the text characters, wherein the shortened representation is selected based on display size and is identified based upon a shortening technique provided by a user and wherein the shortening technique corresponds a content type of the text characters, wherein the shortened representation comprises selectively resized portions of the one or more text characters to a smaller font size;
code that shortens the one or more of the text characters using the shortened representation; and
code that outputs display data including the shortened representation to a display device.
