Abstract
A method of the present invention arranges a prepress workflow by loading a prepress memory manager on a local computer as a result of user input. A graphical user interface is displayed and includes a prepress system design palette having interlinked module icons representative of different prepress hardware and/or software distributed object modules wherein a scan module icon is a first module icon among the interlinked module icons representative of a distributed object scan module that initially receives data for the prepress workflow. The workflow is directed among the prepress hardware and/or software distributed object modules based on the type of data entering the distributed object scan module.
