Abstract
Official abstract text for this publication.
A VDP workflow system and method are disclosed. The system includes an image memory to store a photograph image. The system also includes a VDP document tool to access the photograph image from the image memory and to generate a VDP document comprising the photograph image. The system further includes a red-eye removal tool to process the VDP document to discover red-eye artifacts and to remove the red-eye artifacts from the photograph image on the VDP document based on a programmable red-eye sensitivity value.
First claim
Opening claim text (preview).
What is claimed is: 1. A non-transitory machine-readable storage medium comprising instructions executable by at least one processor to implement a variable data printing (VDP) system comprising: a VDP document tool to access an image memory that stores a photograph image and to generate a VDP document that includes the photograph image; and a red-eye removal tool to process the VDP document to discover red-eye artifacts in the photograph image and to remove the red-eye artifact…
