摘要：A method and device for describing a complex color raster image as a collectionof objects in a hierarchical and device independent format. The purpose of structuredimaging (SI) is to expand the scope of a raster image to a collection of individuallymanipulable component objects. An SI is a hierarchical description of a single output
image raster which may be used as one component of a page in a structured document.Objects contributing to the output raster may originate from text, graphics, other rastersor a combination thereof, and all maintain their heritage for selectability and
modification. The SI describes not only the source data but also the image processingoperations required for rendering the output raster. SI technology supports re-editability, customization and enhancement, automatic image assembly and highperformance imaging. Thus, such a model has implications not only in an image editingand processing arena, but also in the filing and printing services used for image handling.Importantly, the present invention describes how Structured Image themes whichencapsulates many aspects of a particular document production system to renderimages into a single entity. A Theme definition includes a signature definition, a set(organization of related themes, and a specific template, background image, or
background color for each page. Definitions are, for the most part, loaded from text filesat run-time.
