1. A method executed in a system for on-line proofing of a document containing an image, wherein an original document on which the document to be proofed is based also contains content other than an image, the method comprising the operations of:
- sending, by a client computer, a document request to a document server computer;
transmitting a document corresponding to the document request from the document server computer to the client computer in response to the document request, the document having a reference to an image;
sending, by the client computer, an image data request to an image server computer based on the reference to the image;
transmitting an image corresponding to the reference from the image server computer to the client computer in response to the image data request;
combining, by the client computer, the document transmitted by the document server with the image transmitted by the image server;
proofing, by the client computer, the combined document;
recording, by the client computer, desired changes and/or corrections to the combined document without recording the combined document into a job ticket based on the proof processing in said proofing step;
sending, by said client computer, the job ticket to the document server computer;
making, by the document server computer, the desired changes and/or corrections recorded in the job ticket to the document and the image respectively to obtain a modified document and a modified image; and
