Abstract

A copy of a new version of an existing Envy Library file is transferred to a data processing system in which the existing Envy Library file is stored, such that the amount of data actually stored is smaller than the data contained within the new version of the existing Envy Library file. Scripts containing information about unchanged data that can be copied from the existing Envy Library file is stored in the data processing system. Scripts containing information about data in the new version of the existing Envy Library file that is different from data within the existing Envy Library file is also stored in the data processing system. The existing Envy Library file may be regenerated using the script files and the new version of the Envy Library file within the data processing system.
