| 1. Method carried out in a printing system for creating special effects including glossmarks and watermarks for use in rendered
documents, comprising the steps of:
a) using an interpreter to determine parameters for a special effect;
b) overlaying the object parameters for the special effect over original objects of a document;
c) flattening object parameters for the special effect and original objects of a document by addressing topmost objects first
to produce runs with intent tags;
d) introducing intents or altered colors for use with special effects;
e) collecting runs; and
f) rendering runs with intent tags.
