Abstract
The invention concerns a method for the automated processing of digital image data in which the input image data are in compressed form, and in which several method steps must be applied to the compressed image data, or to the image data decompressed before processing, within the scope of image processing. Based on the invention, control data from the still-compressed image data are collected that automatically control the image processing steps.
