  • System and method for encoded raster document generation
    Patent number: 7898686
    Abstract: The subject application is directed to a system and method for encoded raster document generation. The electronic document is a suitable page description language document encoded in a page description language. Primary raster code is then generated in accordance with the received page description language. The primary raster code corresponding to the received electronic document is then stored. The primary raster code includes instructions representing dot placement in a rendering of the electronic document by an associated document output engine. Overlay data is then received corresponding to additional data associated with the electronic document. The overlay data is then converted into secondary raster code. The primary raster code and the secondary raster code are then output for generation of a bitmapped image output from a combination of the primary and the secondary raster codes.
