Summary: | A device, system and method are provided for processing structured documents, such as webpages, for display. Various elements within the structured document are parsed and rendered by an electronic device for outputting to an external or integrated display. In response to a detected scaling instruction, such as a zoom in instruction, a selected region of the displayed document indicated by the instruction is scaled to a first scaled size, including any text content therein. Any text content contained within the region may be reflowed according to the bounds of its containing element or a viewport. A dominant alignment is determined from the element or elements contained within the selected region, and the portion of the scaled region to be output to the display is determined based on the dominant alignment. |
