    摘要: Print data including text or graphics data is transferred from a host computer to a printer. The printer develops the received data on band basis. When data processing to be performed by the printer is expected to fail due to shortage of the memory area size, the host computer cancels the data which has already been sent to the printer, and develops the text or graphics data to form image data. The image data thus formed is sent to the printer. Image data is transferred in a hierarchical manner. Disclosed also is a method which makes it possible to eliminate as much as possible any data processing failure in the printer attributable to shortage of memory capacity.

    摘要: A method and apparatus for outputting an image in which the image is divided into plural parts which are serially processed. Each part in turn is compressed in accordance with a first compression method, the same part is selectably recompressed by a second compression method in accordance with the compression results, the method by which the part was compressed is stored, the compressed part is expanded into a memory area that is common for all parts of the image in accordance with the stored compression method, and the expanded image is output.

    摘要: A full-colour desk top publishing (DTP) system (100) is disclosed that includes a general purpose computer system (200), a full-colour high resolution graphics system (300) and peripheral devices such as a colour laser copier (150) including a scanner (152) and a printer (154), a workscreen display (140) and user inputs such as a digitiser (110) and a keyboard (112). The DTP system (100) can generate graphics images in bands across a page image with the images being stored in DRAM (420) as compressed images using ADCT compession and the JPEG standard. The DTP system (100) includes various pipeline structures (Figs. 3 - 6) which are used in image creation and realisation.

    摘要: A method and apparatus for reducing storage requirements for display data on a computer system (12). Data objects (22) to be displayed are organized into display lists and each data object includes an object type, such as text, graphic, and image. The data objects (22) are rasterized into an uncompressed band buffer and divided into non-intersecting bitmap regions each identified with one or more object types. Each non-empty region is assigned a compression algorithm dependent upon the type of the region and specified compression constraints. The regions are combined with each other into larger regions if appropriate, and each region is compressed using its assigned compression algorithm into a compressed band buffer, thus reducing the required storage space for the data objects. The compressed data is decompressed in scan line order with a selected decompression algorithm corresponding to the assigned compression algorithms to produce uncompressed output data. The uncompressed output data is supplied to an output display device (16) for display.
