Rendering a printing device pixel map

摘要

A device and method to render a page in a printing device are described. In an implementation, an object to be rendered onto the pixel map is converted from a description in pixel coordinates to a representation in lower resolution surface units. The lower resolution surface units are compared to a lower resolution map of the page. If the representation does not overlap an object in the lower resolution map, then an indication is formed that the object can be rendered on the pixel map without destination dependent operations.
