Abstract: In a method or system for trapping print data with a plurality of respective objects, the objects being individually transferred into a bit map pixel file, at least one overfill is determined for the respective object relative to color regions bordering the respective object in the pixel file according to predetermined trapping rules. The object and the at least one overfill are inserted into the pixel file, wherein the object and the overfill are rastered in the pixel file upon insertion.

Abstract: In a method or system to generate a document data stream of a first format that is serially structured per page, document data of a second format that comprise multiple pages of a document are linked with the document data stream. In the document data stream of the first format a separate characteristic type mapping is provided that indicates that contiguous document data that comprise multiple pages are linked with the document data stream. In the first format a first page of the multipage document is completely and successfully run through a parsing process before document data of subsequent pages are run though the parsing process.

Abstract: In a method for trapping of print data with a plurality of objects, transferring the print data together with first trapping instructions and/or parameters in a print data stream for execution of the trapping in a computer or a printing device. With the print data stream referencing resource data that can be repeatedly retrieved and which contain second trapping instructions and/or parameters specific to the printing device.

Abstract: In a method, program, or device to generate or process a document data stream that comprises data relating to color management resources wherein processing of color-related data of the document data stream can be controlled, associating at least one indexed color management resource with the document data stream wherein with the management resource color-related data of the document data stream can be associated with multiple predetermined color palettes. Within a color palette, an index value is respectively associated with multiple color. Respective values regarding the index colors are stored in the color management resource. The values are associated with corresponding proportions of color tones to reproduce the respective indexed color. The color palettes are compared between the system that generates the document data and an output system that outputs the document data, the document data stream is structured.

Abstract: In a method for trapping of print data with a plurality of objects, transferring the print data together with first trapping instructions and/or parameters in a print data stream for execution of the trapping in a computer or a printing device. With the print data stream referencing resource data that can be repeatedly retrieved and which contain second trapping instructions and/or parameters specific to the printing device.

Abstract: In a method, a printing system and a computer program for trapping of print data with a plurality of objects, the print data are generated, prepared and/or transferred together with trapping instructions in a print data stream for execution of the trapping. The print data stream references resource data that comprise trapping parameters and/or trapping instructions. The method can be executed in real time without a delay in the printing process hereby occurring. It can therefore be integrated into a print data stream for electrographic high-capacity printers.
