Applications, systems and methods for identifying and monitoring critical colors in a print job and using an embedded color sensing device to measure critical color printed actually printed. The application permits the user to interact with a print job and to select of one or more critical colors from within the print job. In one embodiment, an application is configured to provide a graphical user interface (GUI) to facilitate the user in selecting critical colors. A printing system and method are disclosed for automatically monitoring critical colors in a print job and using an embedded color sensing device to measure critical color printed.

Applications, systems and methods for identifying and monitoring critical colors in customer print jobs

A representation of a shared structured container type data object with related data bases can be used to present information in a hierarchy or multi-level mode about the activities and status relating to the shared container type structured data object and related data bases and its content of a plurality of structured data objects as well as other information affecting or tracking the shared container type structured data object content in multi-levels. Further, user access control also provides exclusivity or privacy to invoked changes to parts of the shared container type structured data object and related data bases without interference from other users but with an indication to the other users of access control attributes thereby providing coordinated consistency among users relative to changes to all parts of the shared container type structured data object. There is also the provision for sharing a container with related data base and for Quick Query access to the data base allowing the sharing of multiple objects within the container and the capability of populating and querying the various objects within the container as well as within the data base.

Hierarchical shared books with database

Method and apparatus of accessing and displaying hierarachical files on an electronic workstation screen that includes: (1) an Open Next-To operation that opens a separate window for a file to prevent the window from which the file was originally opened from being obscured, (2) a combination of both Open Next-To and Open-Within operations for opening different combinations, (3) 'Chording' for displaying general options and depth display options to give the user a choice of a window OPEN method and hierarchical display depth as well as a choice of selecting 'display all levels' format, (4) a FIND capability that enables finding of strings in a folder display, including forward and backward search and automatic text type conversion based on selection, (5) Iconic Pretty-Printing, that is, the icon optionally combined with text is offset as a function of its depth in a hierarchy including, (6) Folding of the display when the indentation reaches a desired column width, (7) a visual method of indicating the extent of the contents of a folder or directory, including visual highlighting indicating the files that will be affected by any operation, e.g. copy, move, or delete, and (8) the visualization of nested hierarchical relationships for movement of icons and folders.
