1. A raster image processing method for processing content into an output data acceptable for rendering by an output engine included in an output device, the output data corresponding to data content accessible at least partly from an information apparatus, the method comprising:

  • rasterizing at the information apparatus at least part of the content into one or more output images with at least one rasterization parameter associated with the output device;

    generating at the information apparatus an intermediate output data for rendering of the data content at the output device, the intermediate output data including said one or more output images;

    transmitting the intermediate output data from the information apparatus for rendering at the output device;

    performing at least one image processing operation, at an output controller that is distinct from the information apparatus and associated with the output device, on said one or more output images included in the intermediate output data; and

    conforming at the output controller the intermediate output data into the output data acceptable for rendering by the output engine.
