Abstract:
A method includes receiving compressed data representing a page of a document that is associated with a plurality of cell lines. A given cell line of the plurality of cell lines includes a given cell, and the given cell is associated with a plurality of intersecting objects. The technique includes blending a first cell associated with a first object of the plurality of objects with a second cell that is associated with at least one other object of the plurality of objects to provide printer raster image data for the given cell. The blending includes determining whether the first and second cells are both edge cells; and in response to determining that the first and second cells are both edge cells, decompressing the compressed data corresponding to the first and second cells to provide decompressed data, and blending the first and second cells based on the decompressed data.
