A method for the processing of a digital document with generation of a digital copy of the digital document with improved security, wherein upon a printing instruction of a digital document in a computer equipment, a digital copy of the said digital document is generated, the said digital copy of the digital document consisting solely of a digital image file, wherein the printing instruction of the digital document in a computer equipment comprises sending an instruction for printing the digital document to a virtual printer driver, wherein: - the instruction received in the virtual printer driver contains information to the driver of how to print and does not indicate which document information in a computer interpretable format is to be printed by said virtual printer driver, and - the virtual printer driver thus generates a digital copy of the digital document which consists solely of a digital image from the instruction for printing, the printing of a digital copy of the digital document is performed by generating a digital image file from raw data of said instruction for printing, and wherein the digital copy of the digital document which consists solely of a digital image file is subsequently stored in a database, and wherein the database is such that, after a given digital copy of a digital document is saved, only reading will be allowed, and wherein a digital copy of the document is stored remotely and, after a confirmation of correct saving of the digital copy in the database, wherein it can no longer be modified, a queue manager removes the relevant digital copy from a queue, deleting the digital document and any associated certification code from any local memory of the computer equipment, wherein, under the instruction for printing at least two digital documents on a same computer equipment, the said remote storage is performed in the queue manager using at least one priority rule. - the instruction received in the virtual printer driver contains information to the driver of how to print and does not indicate which document information in a computer interpretable format is to be printed by said virtual printer driver, and - the virtual printer driver thus generates a digital copy of the digital document which consists solely of a digital image from the instruction for printing, the printing of a digital copy of the digital document is performed by generating a digital image file from raw data of said instruction for printing, and wherein the digital copy of the digital document which consists solely of a digital image file is subsequently stored in a database, and wherein the database is such that, after a given digital copy of a digital document is saved, only reading will be allowed, and wherein a digital copy of the document is stored remotely and, after a confirmation of correct saving of the digital copy in the database, wherein it can no longer be modified, a queue manager removes the relevant digital copy from a queue, deleting the digital document and any associated certification code from any local memory of the computer equipment, wherein, under the instruction for printing at least two digital documents on a same computer equipment, the said remote storage is performed in the queue manager using at least one priority rule.
