Abstract: The present invention increases the freedom of usage of a page design. 
     A digital camera 1 generates, in a file format that can be parsed by a printer, a
print job for printing a full page design in which an image desired by a user is applied to
a page layout by using a layout definition file that describes a page layout containing
one or more image areas disposed on a page, as well as an image file desired by the user
that is applied to a predetermined image area in the page layout. The print job file thus
generated (print job file) is parsed by a printer 13 and printing is executed on the basis
of the result of this parsing. The layout definition file and image file are associated with
the print job file.

Abstract: Methods and apparatus are disclosed for operation of a multiple fuel engine, which runs on a combination of two or more fuels. An electronic control unit (ECU) may be connected to the existing components of an engine system in order to control operation of the multiple fuel engines. The engine system may be mechanically governed or electronically controlled. The ECU inputs operating characteristics of the engine system, determines governing characteristics for multiple fuel operation based on the operating characteristics, and controls the amounts of fuel delivered to the engine based on the governing characteristics. In a preferred embodiment, a dual fuel engine operates using diesel as a first fuel and natural gas as a second fuel. The operating characteristics may include engine speed, throttle position, engine exhaust temperature, gas pressure of the second fuel, gas temperature of the second fuel, boost pressure of an intake manifold, or engine coolant temperature.

in a system body of a stencil printer and the ink in the ink container
is supplied to a printing drum to carry out stencil printing, to
easily set color information of the printing drum for determining

Abstract: Watermark-detection in the graphics card of a personal computer, for the purpose of copy-protection, has recently started to draw a lot of attention in standardization. Detection in the graphics card has problems completely different from the formerly considered detection in the DVD-drive, having to do with high data-rates, large scale-ranges and presence of multiple video-streams in the display area. This invention proposes examining (36) the video signal being generated by the computer system to locate image areas in which the video signal changes from frame to frame, and defining (37) a bounding box around said image areas and considering an area of interest this found as being a window in which an application is running. After approriate scale conversion (32), conventional watermark detection (31) is subsequently applied to said window. This prevents hackers from rendering illegal contents in one window while playing back a compliant disk in the DVD drive (10).

Abstract: A matrix display device comprises an array of addressable pixels (10) each having a display element (20) and a control circuit for controlling the operation of the display element. The control circuit includes a charge storage capacitor (36) and a photosensitive device (40) coupled to the storage capacitor for regulating charge stored on the storage capacitor (36) in accordance with light falling on the photosensitive device (40). The control circuit further comprises means for independent voltage control (42) of a gate terminal of the photosensitive device (40), preferably a phototransistor. In this way a more efficient and flexible biasing of the phototransistor is possible. The means preferably comprise a second row line (42) being connected to the gate terminal of the photosensitive device (40). This additional line allows also the use of transistors of the same polarity for this type of pixel circuit, saving additional process masks (and costs). In addition, it becomes possible to use the phototransistor as a TFT switch. This dual function (phototransistor/TFT switch) enables the pixel circuit to provide additional features; for example duty-cycle techniques for motion blur compensation.
