    摘要: A system and related techniques automatically exercise the output capabilities of a printer or other output device, and return a log or record of those capabilities to the print manager of a host operating system or other destination. According to embodiments, the host, client or other machine may decide to query a printer, facsimile machine, copy or multifunction machine or other device to determine its range of output capabilities such as available fonts, graphical or rending routines, firmware compatibility or other functions or capabilities. The host may transmit a composite electronic document, containing various components including intermediate language objects which may be interpreted to execute various output processing, such as exercising a set of fonts, scaling, rotating, or other rendering or output functions. The results may be captured in the printer or other output device, for instance by dumping an output buffer or returning execution codes, and returned to the host machine where the available capabilities may be displayed, including in embodiments a rendering of the physical output or simulated physical output on the user interface. The invention offers enhanced profiling and verification for printers and other output systems, compared to manual test pages and other test procedures.

    摘要: The disclosed method diminishes the resolution or the perceived resolution of images and compares the images to evaluate the color image quality of images. The method determines how far away images have to be or how much the resolution needs to be reduced for the images to be perceived as the same. A smaller viewing distance or a lower reduction in resolution corresponds to a closer similarity between the images. A relatively longer viewing distance or a greater reduction in resolution where the visual difference becomes unperceivable is indicative of a large difference between the images.

    摘要: A method and system for controlling gamut mapping algorithm parameters and exposing those parameters as user interface elements to allow users to interactively control the gamut mapping algorithm parameters is provided. A request to modify a user interface is received and a modified gamut mapping algorithm parameter element is loaded into the user interface in response. The request to modify can be a request to modify a pre-existing gamut mapping algorithm parameter element or a format of a corresponding gamut mapping algorithm parameter. User specified requests to adjust gamut mapping algorithm parameter elements are received and color management operations are adjusted in response. A three dimensional representation of a device color gamut can be displayed and modified by a user, and an input image that is being processed by the color management operations is displayed and modified dynamically in response to user specific adjustments.

    摘要: The present invention is directed to producing and reproducing an image using a tone reproduction curve which has been selected based on statistical evaluation of psychophysical data, such as psychophysically quantified subjective judgements. By providing a controlled acquisition and evaluation of psychophysical data to select a tone reproduction curve, visually improved imagery can be assured. Further, once a procedure for controlled acquisition and statistical evaluation of psychophysical data has been established for a given environment, lesser skilled technicians can be used to carry out selection of a tone reproduction curve.

    摘要: The present invention relates to a novel stone laying tool which allows for a perfect stone fit for irregularly sized and shaped stones. The tool is a compact, lightweight, one-piece device made from polypropylene and is positioned between two stones. More specifically, the tool has a pointed peg end and an opposite planar wedge end. The tool provides the functions of both a peg and a wedge and therefore eliminates the need to use separate wedges and pegs.

    摘要: A database system, which stores electronic medical records, may assign a child-application-identification-code to a healthcare provider via a clinical system intermediary acting on behalf of the healthcare provider. The database system may associate the child-application-identification-code assigned to the healthcare provider with a privacy statement and terms of use associated with the clinical system. The privacy statement and terms of use may be presented to the patient when the patient is prompted by the database system to approve or deny a request by the healthcare provider to access the electronic medical record of the patient stored at the database system.

    摘要: A color characterization profile format and data structure are provided for allowing a color management solution to convert colors into or out of a color space. The color characterization profile format contains a color management measurement data portion and a container that is configured to provide digital rights management capabilities over the color characterization profile format. The container can include linked and embedded objects and extensible markup language. Further, the container can be an advanced systems format container. The container can be configured to perform different functions, including enabling private data extensions, operating interface description language, storing a rendering intent separate from the color management measurement data portion, the ability to be edited by a text editor application, operability across a plurality of operating platforms, and preventing a user from tampering with the color characterization profile format.

    摘要: A surgical stapler having a selectively bendable end effector is provided. A staple holding jaw of the end effector is coupled to another jaw for grasping tissue to be stapled. The stapler can adapted to drive staples into tissue having a pattern conforming with the selected shape of the end effector. In particular, the end effector can be adapted to drive staples in a linear pattern when the end effector orients staples in a substantially linear configuration. The end effector can also be adapted to drive staples in a non linear pattern when the end effector orients staples in a non linear configuration. Methods of stapling tissue with a stapler having a bendable end effector are also discussed.

    摘要: A server system for regulating access to a health record of an individual includes a communications subsystem, a logic subsystem operatively coupled to the communications subsystem and configured to execute instructions, memory operatively coupled to the logic subsystem and holding user-interface instructions that, when executed by the logic subsystem, send information via the communications subsystem for presenting a user interface. In this embodiment, the user interface includes a list of one or more items in the health record to which an application has requested access, and for each of the one or more items, a configuration-indicating element distinguishing whether the application is configured to service the individual if access to that item is denied. The user interface further includes for each of the one or more items, one or more presettable selection elements enabling a marshal of the health record to authorize or withhold access to that item.
