1. A printing system comprising:
- a) a partition generator for partitioning a graphic list associated with a print job;
b) a partition-renderer scheduler for associating a partition of said graphic list with a renderer; and
c) a partition bit-blitter for bit-blitting a rendered partition.

Abstract
Aspects of the present invention are related to systems and methods for rendering graphical objects in a printing system. According to one aspect of the present invention a graphic list may be partitioned, and the graphic-list partitions may be rendered “out-of-order” or concurrently.

16. A method, in a printing system, for rendering a print job, said method comprising:
-
a) partitioning a graphic list associated with a print job, thereby producing, at least, a first partition and a second partition; b) sending said first partition to a first renderer; c) sending said second partition to a second renderer; d) rendering said first partition at said first renderer and said second partition at said second renderer; and e) bit-blitting said rendered first partition and said rendered second partition. - View Dependent Claims (17, 18, 19)
