摘要： A system and method scan a document printed by a first document processing device (using a second document processing device separate from the first document processing device). The document has printed thereon machine readable markings that comprise information of a patient, information of at least one lab test to be performed, and formatting information for the return of the lab test results. The second document processing device identifies the lab test to be performed on the patient based on the machine readable markings. After the lab tests have been performed on the patient, the second document processing device prepares the lab test results by formatting them. These formatted lab test results are then output from the second document processing device to the first document processing device.

摘要： This disclosure provides a document access method and system. The document access method and system are based on a social network model which interconnects members of the social network as a function of trust. This framework provides a basis for documents to be accessed by members which are not directly specified by a document's owner, while providing a certain degree of document security.

摘要： A method for utilizing redundant color inks to improve image quality while minimizing any undesirable effects such as texture or graininess. The method comprises tessellating the available redundant color space as defined by the available redundant ink colorants into regions where the regions are arranged so as to minimize the range of luminance variation found within the regions. The result is perceived by the eye as less grainy in texture as well as much more pleasing to the eye.

摘要： A plurality of rendering devices in communication with a network are configured with an active mode and an inactive mode, wherein in the active mode a rendering device is either in a rendering state or constitutes components ready to render. In response to receiving a rendering job request, it is determined if any rendering device of the plurality of rendering devices is currently an active mode rendering device. If an active mode rendering device is available via the network, a rendering queue wait time is estimated with respect to the active mode rendering device and an activation wait time is estimated for an inactive rendering device on the network. The estimated rendering queue wait time is compared to the estimated activation wait time and the rendering job is rendered on the rendering device associated with a shorter estimated time, thereby saving energy by maintaining the majority of rendering devices in communication with the network in an inactive mode.

摘要： A method for forming a multi-color, clustered dot-off-dot halftone screen, includes defining a range of density values for pixels of a first color and assigning those density values to positions along a pixel growth curve; defining a range of density values for pixels of a second color and assigning those density values to positions along the pixel growth curve; and defining the pixel growth curve, such that a plurality of consecutively filled pixels form a cluster along the curve and such that pixels widely separately along the curve are also widely separated within the halftone cell. Density values for pixels of third and fourth colors may be sequentially assigned to positions along the pixel growth curve.

摘要： System and method for device-independent color gamut mapping is disclosed. The system recognizes that a finite set of color gamut mapping intents form the basis for performing color gamut mappings during document rendering and implements a color mapping method for each of the color gamut mapping intents. For each color in a document to be rendered, the system obtains a desired color gamut mapping strategy expressed as a combination of the color gamut mapping intents and performs each of the color mapping methods on each color to obtain basis color maps for each color. The system then constructs a mapped color for each of the colors in the document based on the desired color gamut mapping strategy associated with each color. Furthermore, weight values may be used to further define the combination in the desired color gamut mapping strategy.

摘要： Text, images, and/or graphics of electronic documents should be organized and laid out in a two-dimensional format for presentation to the viewer. The best such layout depends upon the content present, the creator's intent, the output device, and the viewer's interests. To analyze the qualitative nature of the layout in quantifiable terms, the electronic document is measure using various quantifiable factors; such as, balance, uniformity, white space management, alignment, consistency, legibility, etc.; that impact a qualitative nature of a document. Such quantifiable factors are then used to quantize the aesthetics, ease of use, eye-catching ability, interest, communicability, comfort, and convenience of the document.

摘要： Document fragments are managed by the use of fragment objects. Fragment objects contain a reference to a portion of a source document. Referencing documents contain a reference to a fragment object which delivers the content of the fragment of the source document to the referencing document. The source document can be directly updated through updating the fragment of the source document contained in the referencing document via the use of the fragment object. Source document deletion is controlled by storing the references to the source document by fragment objects so that no fragment object has a reference to a nonexistent source document. A process for organizing document fragments within a document management system wherein source documents comprise duplicates of the document fragments includes replacing a duplicate fragment with a reference to a single fragment object the fragment object including a reference to a fragment of a source document and an object class method for deletion of the fragment object including instructions to remove the reference to the fragment object from the metadata of the source document to which the fragment object refers.
