1. A method of analyzing and displaying information regarding a plurality of documents, the method comprising the steps of: generating a set of N different representations of each document, a given representation being designated the i.sup.th representation where i is an integer in the range of 1 to N inclusive; for selected pairs of documents, determining N utility measures, a given utility measure being designated the i.sup.th utility measure where i is an integer in the range of 1 to N inclusive, the i.sup.th utility measure being based on the respective i.sup.th representations of the documents in that pair; and displaying a scatter plot in an area bounded by N non-parallel axes, a given axis being designated the i.sup.th axis where i is an integer in the range of 1 to N inclusive, where each selected pair is represented by a point in N-space having a coordinate along the i.sup.th axis equal to the i.sup.th utility measure.
