PRINTING CONTROL APPARATUS, PRINTING CONTROL METHOD, AND STORAGE MEDIUM - A simplified explanation of the abstract
This abstract first appeared for US patent application 18584155 titled 'PRINTING CONTROL APPARATUS, PRINTING CONTROL METHOD, AND STORAGE MEDIUM
The patent application describes a display control method that involves obtaining two different preview image resolutions for checking printing layouts and spot color printing portions, respectively. The method then displays a spot color preview image using a resolution based on these two resolutions.
- The method calculates the first preview image resolution based on print settings and the size of the display region, while the second preview image resolution is calculated based on drawing commands and the size of the display region.
- By using these calculated resolutions, the method allows for accurate checking of spot color printing portions in the preview image.
- Potential Applications:**
This technology can be applied in printing industries where spot color printing is common, ensuring accurate previews of the final printed output.
- Problems Solved:**
This technology addresses the need for precise checking of spot color printing portions in printing layouts, improving the overall quality of printed materials.
- Benefits:**
The method provides a more efficient and accurate way to check spot color printing portions, reducing errors and improving the final printed output.
- Commercial Applications:**
Title: Enhanced Spot Color Printing Preview Method This technology can be utilized in commercial printing services to enhance the accuracy and quality of spot color printing, attracting clients who require high-quality printed materials.
- Prior Art:**
Prior art related to this technology may include display control methods for printing layouts and spot color printing portions.
- Frequently Updated Research:**
Stay updated on advancements in display control methods for printing technologies to ensure the continued relevance and effectiveness of this innovation.
- Questions about Display Control Method:**
1. How does the method calculate the first preview image resolution? 2. What are the key benefits of using this technology in commercial printing services?
Original Abstract Submitted
A display control method includes the steps of obtaining a first preview image resolution for checking a printing layout, obtaining a second preview image resolution for checking a spot color printing portion where the spot color printing is carried out, and displaying a spot color preview image for checking the spot color printing portion by using a resolution based on the first preview image resolution and the second preview image resolution. The first preview image resolution is calculated and obtained based on a print setting included in the print data and on a size of a region where display is carried out in the preview image displaying step, and the second preview image resolution is calculated and obtained based on a drawing command included in the print data and on the size of the region where display is carried out in the preview image displaying step.
