Abstract
A method for controlling the formation of an image on a printing form carrier for a printing machine, wherein image signals serving to generate a printing form are taken from a storage memory of a computer and fed to an imaging device, includes storing, in one region of the storage memory, image data for reproducing a subject to be evaluated after printing; storing, in another region, image data for reproducing a multiplicity of digital print control elements for use in printing machines in a printing plant; assigning a job for a selected printing machine and making a selection of image data for digital print control elements with which the job is optimally monitorable on the machine for performing the assigned job; and combining the image data for the selected print control elements with the image data for reproducing the subject in a further region in the storage memory, with the aid of the computer, to produce an image data set for forming an image on the printing form carrier.
