Method, computer and computer program to administer resources for use in a resource-based document data stream
First Claim
1. A method for administration of a resource containing resource data for use in a resource-based document data stream that includes at least one of variable document data and at least one internal resource and at least one call on an external resource, comprising the steps of:
- subjecting the document data stream to a parsing event in which it is checked for consistency with predetermined rules;
associating an identification datum and a resource name with the resource, said identification datum unambiguously identifying the resource relative to all other resources of the document data stream; and
calling the resource at least once by at least one of the resource name and the identification datum within the document data stream for representation of the document data on a reproduction device.

Abstract
In a method, a computer and a computer program for administration of a resource containing resource data for use in a resource-based document data stream that includes variable document data, at least one internal resource and/or at least one call on an external resource, the document data stream is subject to a parsing event in which it is checked for consistency with predetermined rules. In addition to a resource name, an identification datum is thereby associated with the resource, the identification datum unambiguously identifying the resource relative to all other resources of the document data stream. For representation of the document data on a reproduction device, the resource is called once or multiple times by means of the resource name and/or the identification datum within the document data stream.

13. A print system comprising a computer programmed to implement a method for administration of a resource containing resource data for use in a resource-based document data stream that includes at least one of variable document data and at least one internal resource and at least one call on an external resource, comprising the steps of:
-
subjecting the document data stream to a parsing event in which it is checked for consistency with predetermined rules;
associating an identification datum and a resource name with the resource, said identification datum unambiguously identifying the resource relative to all other resources of the document data stream; and

14. A computer program that when loaded and executed on a computer carries out a method for administration of a resource containing resource data for use in a resource-based document data stream that includes at least one of variable document data and at least one internal resource and at least one call on an external resource, comprising the steps of:
-
subjecting the document data stream to a parsing event in which it is checked for consistency with predetermined rules;
associating an identification datum and a resource name with the resource, said identification datum unambiguously identifying the resource relative to all other resources of the document data stream; and
calling the resource at least once by at least one of the resource name and the identification datum within the document data stream for representation of the document data on a reproduction device.
