Abstract: A computer software product, methods and apparatus for target report generation are provided. In one embodiment, a trigger pattern is derived from at least one target pattern. Locations within a data set containing the trigger pattern are identified and a target report is generated. In another embodiment, a computing apparatus is provided that produces reports by deriving a trigger pattern, identifying locations within a dataset where the trigger patterns exist and generating a report. In a further embodiment, a computer software product is provided that configures an apparatus to generate a target report. This Abstract is provided for the sole purpose of complying with the Abstract requirement rules that allow a reader to quickly ascertain the subject matter of the disclosure contained herein. This Abstract is submitted with the explicit understanding that it will not be used to interpret or to limit the scope or the meaning of the claims.

Abstract: A computer program product for compressing data files representative of an image document. The document includes color information and/or graphical information. The product is on a computer readable medium and includes instructions for causing a computer to provide a first image file at a first resolution and a second image file at a second resolution of said document with said second resolution being lower than said first resolution. The product causes a computer to process the first image file to convert the first image file into a text file representation of the document and compress the text file representation of the document to provide a first compressed file. The computer processes the second file to extract information corresponding to color information and graphics information. It compresses the second file using a second, different compression technique to provide a second compressed file corresponding to the image and the color information from the low resolution image file.
