发明名称 Document production system having automatic adjustment of content to fit the page margin of a pre-printed media
摘要 A document production system having the capability of determining the printable area of a pre-printed media is disclosed. The system may include a scanner, which scans and analyzes a copy of the pre-printed media as a template. The system may determine the page margin of the template, including the side margin, the header or the footer. The system may determine the printable area of the template based on the page margin and adjust the content of the document to be printed to fit the printable areas by either scaling or cropping.

主权项 1. A document production system comprising: a scanner that is equipped with a motor which rotates a medium to be scanned around an axis; a printer; and a computing device, including a processor, configured to perform the functions of: causing the scanner to scan a soft copy template corresponding to the pre-printed media, determining, based on the soft copy template, a page margin of the pre-printed media, the page margin comprising a side margin, a header or a footer, wherein the determining comprises: (a) identifying a first variation in the intensity of light detected by a scan head of the scanner; (b) identifying an angle that the motor has rotated the pre-printed media when the first variation is detected and calculating a linear distance therefrom; and (c) providing a first offset of the linear distance from the top of the pre-printed media and marking the first offset as unprintable, determining, based on the page margin, a printable area of the pre-printed media, re-scaling content of the document such that the content is configured to fit into the printable area of the pre-printed media, and causing the printer to print the re-scaled content of the document in the printable area of the pre-printed media.
