Abstract
Abstract An information communicating system (30) is provided, having a close-up function on a web document, a close-up method thereof and a recording medium recording the close-up method. The information communicating system (30) is coupled to a web server (50) via a network (40) and is arranged to download a web document from the web server, wherein the web document is of a frame structure. When one frame (14) is selected from the frame structure of the web document, the information communicating apparatus displays a close-up of the selected frame of the web document. Accordingly, since a particular part of the web document of the frame structure can be selectively focused and displayed, a readability of the document is improved on low resolution devices.
