Summary: | The present specification makes reference to a computer program listing contained in an Appendix, which is stored on one CD-ROM in a file titled "appendix.txt", the complete contents of which are incorporated by reference as if fully contained herein.
A method and apparatus for outputting an electronic document, in which separation pages are automatically interleaved between successively printed pages of the electronic document. In one embodiment, the invention provides a method of printing an electronic document on transparency film using a computer printer having at least two (2) paper source trays. The method may involving modifying an existing printer driver associated with the printer to cause the printer to print pages of the document on sheets of transparency film obtained from a first paper source tray, and to automatically interleave blank sheets obtained from a second paper source tray between successively printed pages. For example, an existing printer driver is modified by automatically generating a new computer printer driver based on an existing printer description file that is associated with the existing printer driver, to redefine pagination and paper source tray attributes of the description file. |
