Abstract
A method and apparatus for processing image information. An address designation or token is applied to each pixel or data byte in a scan line of image data describing its position in the scan line. By providing each data byte of image information with an address token defining its specific position in the scan line, the image information for data byte on the image is specifically located in the final image configuration, without requiring storage of the entire image information for manipulation. Operation on both data and address token is possible for image manipulation routines.
