Abstract:
Methods consistent with some embodiments presented provide methods for identifying at least one pixel in a raster image buffer for inclusion in a processing space. In some embodiments of methods identifying at least one pixel in a raster image buffer for inclusion in a processing space may include analyzing a tag-field associated with the at least one pixel. The tag-field may identify object types associated with the pixel. In some embodiments, an action directive may be assigned to the pixel based on the value of the tag-field. In some embodiments, the pixel may be included in a processing space based on the action directive.
Abstract:
Methods disclosed permit the identification of frame buffer pixels for trapping. In some embodiments, flags associated with pixels in the frame buffer may be used to provide an indication of pixels for trapping. A first bit in a flag associated with a pixel may be set when the pixel is painted. In some embodiments, the method discloses a process for setting the value of a second bit in the flag to determine if the pixel associated with the flag lies on an object boundary. The pixel is identified as a candidate for trapping based on the value of the at least one flag.

Abstract:
Systems and methods consistent with some embodiments presented provide methods for rendering print data. In some embodiments of methods for rendering print data comprising at least one compressed image object may include generating a display list by parsing the print data. The compressed image object may be identified in the display list by a reference to the at least one compressed image object. In some embodiments, the display list may be rasterized and converted to a bitmap. In some embodiments, the reference to the at least one compressed image object may be used to retrieve the at least one compressed image object. The retrieved compressed image object may be decoded and rasterized to generate a bitmap of the decoded image.
