OVERVIEW

—

CCITT T.4 G3 Facsimile Two–Dimensional Coding
Scheme (G3 MR)

—

CCITT T.6 G4 Facsimile Two–Dimensional Coding
Scheme (G4 MMR).

IPDS creates composite pages (pages with data, graphics, and
images) within a hierarchy of presentation spaces:

•

Physical page—the paper on which you print information.

•

Physical printable page—the area of the paper that is
accessible by your Xerox printer.  There is a 50–pixel
nonprintable area surrounding any IPDS page.

•

Logical page—a rectangular area on the physical page.
Printing occurs only where the current logical page area
intersects the printable area of the physical page.

•

Data blocks—rectangular areas placed on the logical page.
Data blocks include the following:

—

Graphics data blocks

—

Bar code data blocks

—

IM and IO Image data blocks.

There are no text data blocks.  You can position text at any
location inside the valid printable area (VPA). 

IM images are image objects that are resolution–dependent,
bilevel, and cannot be scaled or compressed.  IO images are
image objects containing Image Object Content Architecture
(IOCA) constructs.  IO images are resolution–independent,
bilevel, and can be scaled or compressed.

You can use various applications to create the source data for
each data block and then merge them at the printer to produce
an integrated mixed–data page.  This allows you to integrate
application output rather than use integrated applications. 

Figure 1–1 provides an example of the page environment and its
presentation spaces.
