A system and method for paginating objects, such as graphical images, within a predefined space, such as a viewable or printed page, is provided. The system and method includes substantially evenly distributing graphical images on a selected number of pages. Alternately, the system and method may determine remainders based on supplied numbers of graphical images per page and total number of pages, and redetermine and reassign depending upon the remainders, or may employ a page layout technique using scoring to establish a best layout for available graphical images and assign graphical images to pages using the page layout technique, or may determine pagination based on expected viewing conditions. The system and method may also receive specific hard page breaks establishing chapters and compute soft page breaks based on certain criteria.

In one aspect of the present invention, page breaks are identified in the following manner. A set of ink data and a document description are processed by a variety of scoring methods, each of which generates a score for each possible insertion point in the ink. These scores are combined to produce a ranked list of hypothesized page breaks for the corresponding ink data. This ranked list is then used either to insert page breaks automatically using a predefined threshold to determine a cut-off in the list; or to present, on-line, to a human for verification/approval; or a mixture of the two based on two thresholds: one for automatic insertion and the other for human verification. It is to be understood not all scoring methods need be used, that is, one or more of the scoring methods may be used as needed.

A web browser application program provides graphical print techniques, which allow the user to control how a web page is presented. The data processing system, under instruction of a program, responds to an instruction by the user to present a selected portion of a first document by creating a new document from the first document including the header, trailer, and the selected portion. The data processing system responds to an instruction by the user to change the font size of a selected portion of the first document by creating a copy of the first document and modifying or inserting font tags within the copy of the document. The data processing system responds to an instruction by the user to present the first document with page break indicators by creating a copy of the first document and inserting page break indicators within the copy to be presented to the user. The graphical print techniques may also be used together.

This invention relates to a document processing apparatus which edits document data which can define a desired section using an original page as a unit of definition. Whether a page break is designated at the section break of the section is determined. If the page break is designated, a blank original page is inserted at the end of a section before the section break so as to lay out the first original page of a section after the section break at the start of a new surface of a print sheet when original pages are laid out in accordance with a designated layout.

On-line or computer based document generation and consumption has become as common, or more so, than paper based document generation and consumption. With the move away from paper there is no longer the physical restriction of the paper on which a document may be printed. It is still desirable, however, to break documents into readable pages. We allow a selection of logical page breaks at locations that are deemed convenient, also allow for selection of approximate page dimensions for pages within each logical section. Because these pages are approximate, pagination is less computationally expensive than fixed pagination. Moreover, many of the appearance problems that plague fixed pagination dissolve.

A page-break creating method for use with a computer system is disclosed. The computer system is in communication with a printing device. After a document to be printed is selected, in response to a print command from the computer system, it is discriminated whether there is at least one graph included in image data of the document. Then, the region of the at least one graph is located if there is at least one graph included in the image data of the document. Then, the region of at least one text paragraph included in the image data of the document is located. Afterward, a page-break setting is created according to the regions of the at least one graph and the at least one text paragraph by inserting a page break in the image data of the document such that no graph or text paragraph is divided into separable one on different pages.

The “Idiom Identifier” converts an original text document to a “neutral” form containing no punctuation, no capital letters, and having only a single space between each word. Neutral form text also removes hidden markup such as line breaks, paragraph breaks or page breaks. The Idiom Identifier performs an enhanced text search to locate idioms listed in a library file. The Idiom Identifier marks each identified idiom in a marked-up copy of the original text document. A reader can click on the marked-up idiom to see a definition of the idiom.

An apparatus and method for controlling printing including setting a print attribute to a specific page or a specific page range in a print job, permitting an application to produce print data, analyzing the print data and searching for a page break code in a case where the application is permitted to produce the print data and the print attribute in the print job is set, and inserting, into the print data, a print attribute command to specify the print attribute, wherein the print attribute command is inserted according to the result of the search for the page break code.

A method and a file format transformation system (FFTS) for transforming marked-up content in a first file format (FFF) to a second file format (SFF) that enables automated browser based pagination are provided. The FFTS reflows marked-up content of the FFF into a continuous page. The FFTS generates and appends tags to spaces and block elements identified in the reflown marked-up content of the FFF. For each space and block element, the FFTS determines and tags line breaks in the reflown marked-up content. For each line break, the FFTS identifies, tags, and positions anchored floats and footnotes on a current page based on space availability. The FFTS positions page breaks in the continuous page based on a configurable page height and the line breaks. The FFTS groups the marked-up content, inserts pagination elements and renders the grouped marked-up content in the SFF based on a selected level of reversibility.

A method of printing an indication of defective printing can print a defective printing mark indicating that printing was not completed normally on a printout containing unprinted or missing dots. When printing one page of print data on recording paper is completed but before a paper discharge command indicating a page break (step ST3) is executed, the operation printing the one page of print data is interrupted and whether or not ink droplets are being discharged normally from the ink nozzles of the inkjet head is detected. If the ink droplets are not being discharged normally, the recording paper is conveyed in reverse direction and print data for the defective printing mark is printed on the recording paper as part of the interrupt process. Therefore, if the recording paper contains unprinted (missing) dots, a defective printing mark is printed on the recording paper and printing the one page of print data then ends.

The purpose of this application is to provide a method and device for backing up data. Specifically, read and detect whether the page of the data file has a page break problem; and lock the page with the page break problem into a readable and unmodifiable state, and re-read and copy the page to the backup set, and then release the page Locks the read-only, non-modifiable state of the page. Compared with the prior art, the method and device for backing up data described in the present application reads and detects whether a page of a data file has a page break problem, and uses a preemptive method to lock the page with the page break problem to be readable and unmodifiable. state to temporarily prevent subsequent data from continuing the writing process to the page. After the page quickly completes the writing process of the current data, the page is re-read and copied to the page in the backup set, so as to solve the problem well. The problem of page breakage in the backup process is eliminated, and the backup success rate is greatly improved.

A system and method for processing YCbCr video data stored in a paged memory with reduced page breaks. A method is disclosed for retrieving YCbCr planar video data in 4:2:0 format from paged memory. A page of the paged memory containing Y data is accessed; Y data corresponding to M pixels of video data is then retrieved, where M is a value greater than or equal to two. The retrieved Y data is then stored in a shift register. Similar steps are taken to access, retrieve and store Cb and Cr data. Within the shift register, the Y, Cb, and Cr data is stored as sets of planar video data. The Y, Cb, and Cr data is retrieved from the shift register as a series of pixel data for generating pixels on a video display unit.

It is an object of this invention to provide a user-legible print result in consecutively printing a plurality of pages of images. To this end, it is checked whether there is continuity between data to be printed at the lower end portion of a page and data to be printed at the upper end portion of the next page. If there is continuity, a page break is inserted before the data at the lower end portion of the page, and an image of the data at the lower end portion is printed on the next page. Controlling a printing method in this manner makes it possible to prevent character split due to printing across pages and provide a user-legible print result.
