Abstract: A method for assembling a document generates a set of candidate content items for inclusion in the document. The content items may be stored in a computer-readable storage medium. A set of production criteria for printing the candidate content items as a document may be selected. An inclusion constraint is automatically applied to the set of production criteria. If the set of production criteria does not satisfy the inclusion constraint, a conflict may be resolved. One or more production criteria in the set may be identified that may be modified. A user selection of at least one production criteria that may be modified may be received. The identified production criteria may be modified according to the user selection. A document may be created that includes the modified production criteria and the candidate content items. The document may be published.

Abstract: A method for assembling a document generates a set of candidate content items for inclusion in the document. The content items may be stored in a computer-readable storage medium. An inclusion constraint is automatically applied to the set to determine whether the set satisfies the inclusion constraint. If the set does not satisfy the inclusion constraint, a conflict may be resolved by identifying one or more candidate content items in the set to be removed and removing the identified candidate content items from the set. A document may be created that includes the candidate content items that were not removed. The document may be published.

Abstract: A method of printing a job to produce a set of prints in a printing system with a print file, the print file being divided into a first buffer and a second buffer where the print file communicates with a marker. The marker employs a set of a first type of print-related information and a set of a second type of print-related information for producing the set of prints. The method includes the step of filling the first buffer with a first portion of the set of the first type of print-related information and the second buffer with the a first portion of the set of the second type of print-related information. The method further includes the step of reading, with the marker, the first portion of the set of the first type of print-related information from the first buffer and the first portion of the set of the second type of print-related information from the second buffer.
