DETECTING CONFORMANCE OF GRAPHICAL OUTPUT DATA FROM AN APPLICATION TO A CONVENTION

摘要

Conformance of graphical output data from an application to a convention can be detected by processing instructions to render the graphical output data to determine if the graphical output data rendered in accordance with those instructions conforms to the convention. The graphical output data is then rendered based on this determination of conformance, such that the rendered graphical output data visibly differentiates conforming display data from nonconforming display data when presented on an output device. For example, text that conforms to specified font properties can be presented with one color, and text that is not conforming can be presented with another color.

1. A process comprising:
receiving first data into memory, the first data including instructions to render graphical output data for a computer, receiving second data into memory, the second data indicating conventions for rendered graphical output data; processing the instructions to determine if graphical output data rendered in accordance with the instructions conforms to the conventions; and rendering the graphical output data in accordance with the instructions and based on the determination, such that the rendered graphical output data visibly differentiates conforming from nonconforming graphical output data when presented on an output device.
