When a printer is selected, the print application according to the invention reads the job ticket and a printer capability file (associated with the selected printer), converts the device-independent attributes from the job ticket into device specific printer commands from the capability file, and incorporates the printer commands into the printable format, as appropriate for the file.

Abstract: A print job is displayed as a sequence of pages. An operator is enabled to create artificial pages representing such elements as cover pages and preprinted sheets which are normally apart from the print job data file. The artificial pages are inserted into a display of the real pages defined by the print job data file or original document and are therefore displayed visually just as the other document pages are displayed. They can be manipulated just like other pages; that is, they can be moved, deleted, replaced and so on.
