A method and apparatus for viewing the effect of outputting on the output device an image represented by digital data defining the colour content of pixels of the image. The apparatus comprises a monitor; a store; and a processor to enable a portion of the image to be selected, and for generating and storing in the store data simulating the selected image portion as it would appear after screening by the output device. The monitor is responsive to the stored data to display the simulated, screened image portion.
