ABSTRACT:
A method and apparatus for efficiently processing selected pages in a hierarchically structured page description language. A stack is used to keep track of the different hierarchical levels of a document. The hierarchical levels which select pages have corresponding FIFO data structures which are used to keep track of the selected pages at the different hierarchical levels. After a selected range of pages is processed, that range of pages is popped out of the selection page range FIFO data structure. When a hierarchical level is finished being processed, the entry in the stack corresponding to that hierarchical level is popped off of the stack.
