| Number | Title | Issue Date |
| 7359530 | Object-based raster trapping Trapping graphics during pre-press workflow involves intensive computation. In this invention, the trapping engine uses simple bounding boxes, colors, and temporal order information, to eliminate the possibility of trapping many pairs of objects without ever having ... | 04/15/2008 |
| 7298526 | Method for confirming correct selection of an output profile of a printer A method for using a page description language to electronically express colored patches on the border of contract proofs, such that a user can quickly and easily evaluate whether the color of prints produced using a color printer are correct. The verification is pe... | 11/20/2007 |
| 6996284 | System and method for flattening spans A system and method for computing a run-length encoded raster in which spans are successively added to a raster or overlapping spans are flattened. Spans are temporarily expanded into a pixel array representing part of the raster, where entries in the pixel array ar... | 02/07/2006 |
| 6809839 | System and method for rendering printing traps with application of color transformations A system and method for handling overprinting in generating a raster page for continuous tone or halftone printing. A color transformation is used to generate tints for each of the colorants for each of the colored shapes. When rendering a shape that is set for over... | 10/26/2004 |
| 6755498 | Establishing a reference printer state using a recursive tone scale matching Method and system for determination of a reference printer state using recursive tone scale matching. The present invention determines the ink values for the primary colorants necessary to produce a desired reference printer state that includes a desired tone reprod... | 06/29/2004 |
