| 20110296296 | System and Methods for Displaying User Modifiable Server-Rendered Images - A system and method permits design of customized items on a client device using a web page. The client device receives a web page from a web server that includes, among other things, a design document encoding graphic elements that completely characterize a design image. The client device receives edits to the graphic elements, and sends a modified design document back to the server. The server then uses the design document to render an image, and sends to the client the server-rendered image for display in the web page. The web page may define an area in which to display the server-rendered image. The server may use a database to store the rendered image and use it in completing a customer order. | 12-01-2011 |
| 20100293725 | PRE-TREATMENT LIQUID FOR LIQUID ABSORBING PRINTING SUBSTRATES - Liquids for the pre-treatment of liquid absorbing substrates, in particular textiles or garments, in printing processes are disclosed, said liquids being based on water and/or a low molecular alcohol and including small amounts of an organic acid and/or other reagents to increase dye fixation as well as at least one corrosion inhibiting agent selected from a group containing quaternary ammonium salts, derivates thereof and their corresponding organically substituted amines, hydroxy substituted acetylenic components and derivates thereof, carboxylic, dicarboxylic and polycarboxylic acids, long-chain carboxylic, dicarboxylic and polycarboxylic acids and separated fractions and derivates thereof, sulfur containing heterocyclic compounds and derivates thereof, nitrogen containing heterocyclic compounds and derivates thereof, nitrite and nitrate salts of metal ions, organic nitrites and nitrates, organic nitrogen compounds and reductive nitrogen containing compounds. Preferably the concentration of the corrosion inhibiting agent is between 0.01 wt. % and 10 wt. % and the surface tension of the liquid between 15 mN/m and 70 mN/m. | 11-25-2010 |
| 20090070668 | AUTOMATED PRODUCT LAYOUT - Methods and computer programs for automatically creating a text layout in an electronic design for a product to be printed. A number of defined text elements are available for user text entries. The product layout is based a user-selected image, if any, and on the text elements having user-supplied text content. Text elements without text content are disregarded. Positioning of user text entries is determined based on the size of the text entries, defined text element spacing distances, and defined positioning rules. Creating a layout incorporating user-supplied text entries and/or image may include cropping or resizing of other design elements in the product design and wrapping of relatively long text entries onto multiple lines. | 03-12-2009 |
| 20090070666 | System and Methods for Displaying User Modifiable Server-Rendered Images - A system and method renders an image on a server and displays it on a client. A server sends to a client a web page that includes a design document encoding graphic elements that characterize a design image. The client receives edits to the graphic elements, and sends the design document back to the server. The server then uses the design document to render an image, and sends to the client the rendered image for display in the web page. The web page may contain an IFRAME markup tag to define an area in which to display the rendered image. The server may use a database to store the rendered image and use it in completing a customer order. | 03-12-2009 |
