Abstract
A method for document manipulation which embeds additional information in document data in which layout and position of a element have been defined comprises a process of generating rendered image data by rendering a region where additional information is to be embedded in the document, a process of embedding additional information in a part of the rendered image data, and a process of merging a images of the part in which the additional information embedded in the rendered image data with a predetermined region in a original document data.
Claims8
A document manipulation apparatus which embeds additional information in document data in which layout and position of a element have been defined, said apparatus comprising:
- means for generating rendered image data by rendering a regions where additional information is to be embedded in the document data:
- means for embedding additional information in a portion of the rendered image data;
- and
- means for merging an image of the portion in which the additional information embedded in the rendered image data with a predetermined region in original document data.
A method for document manipulation which embeds additional information in document data in which layout and position of a element have been defined, said method comprising:
- a step of generating rendered image data by rendering a region where additional information is to be embedded in the document:
- a step of embedding additional information in a portion of the rendered image data;
- and
- a step of merging a images of the portion in which the additional information embedded in the rendered image data with a predetermined region in the original document data.
A computer program product for document manipulation for embedding additional information in document data in which layout and position of a element have been defined, which, when executed by a computer, causes the computer to perform:
- a step of generating rendered image data by rendering a region where additional information is to be embedded in the document:
- a step of embedding additional information in a portion of the rendered image data;
- and
- a step of merging an image of the portion in which the additional information embedded in the rendered image data with a predetermined region in a original document data.
