ABSTRACT:
Methods and apparatus, including computer program products, implementing and using techniques for processing a computer graphics illustration, the computer graphics illustration having overlapping objects. At least a region of the computer graphics illustration is broken up into tiles, without regard to the overlapping objects. The objects in each tile are processed to create vector output representing the tiled region of the computer graphics illustration. In one implementation, the boundaries of the tiles overlap. In an alternative implementation, the tiles are adjacent. In the latter implementation, information is obtained about physical pixel boundaries in an output device space, and each tile includes only pixels of the output device space that are wholly within the tile.
