Abstract
An information processing device includes a table data acquirer that acquires table data; a print data generator that generates print data including an unconverted image in which information stored in the table data is not converted into other information when a user selects a text option and that generates the print data including a first code image obtained by converting the information stored in the table data into a one-dimensional code image when the user selects a one-dimensional code option; and a display controller that displays, on a touch panel, a fourth operation screen including an option region in which a plurality of options including the text option and the one-dimensional code option are displayed and a second table data region in which the table data is displayed.

An information processing device comprising:
- a table data acquirer that acquires table data;
- a print data generator that generates print data including an unconverted image in which information stored in the table data is not converted into other information when a user selects a non-conversion option and that generates the print data including a first code image obtained by converting the information stored in the table data into a code image of a first type when the user selects a first conversion option;
- and
- a display controller that displays, on a display unit, a second screen including an option region in which a plurality of options including the non-conversion option and the first conversion option are displayed and a second table data region in which the table data is displayed,
- the display controller displays, on the display unit, a first screen including a first print image region in which an image of a print medium is displayed and a first table data region in which the table data is displayed,
- the display controller displays the second screen on the display unit when the user selects a column from the table data displayed in the first table data region and performs a predetermined operation, and
- the print data generator generates a plurality of print data items identical to the print data so that a plurality of print images based on a plurality of information items identical to the information and stored in the column selected by the user are printed on the print medium,
- wherein the second screen includes the option region, the second table data region, and a second print image region in which an image of the print medium is displayed, and
- wherein when the user selects a column from the table data displayed in the first table data region and performs a predetermined operation, the display controller displays the second screen on the display unit by setting the first print image region of the first screen to the second print image region, setting the first table data region of the first screen to the second table data region, and displaying the option region in a pop-up screen.
A method for controlling an information processing device, the method comprising:
- causing the information processing device to acquire table data;
- causing the information processing device to generate print data including an unconverted image in which information stored in the table data is not converted into other information when a user selects a non-conversion option, and generate the print data including a first code image obtained by converting information stored in the table data into a code image of a first type when the user selects a first conversion option;
- and
- causing the information processing device to display, on a display unit, a first screen including a first print image region in which an image of a print medium is displayed and a first table data region in which the table data is displayed,
- causing the information processing device to display, on the display unit, a second screen including an option region in which a plurality of options including the non-conversion option and the first conversion option are displayed and a second table data region in which the table data is displayed, the second screen being displayed on the display unit in response to the user selecting a column from the table data displayed in the first table data region and performing a predetermined operation, and
- causing the information processing device to generate a plurality of print data items identical to the print data so that a plurality of print images based on a plurality of information items identical to the information and stored in the column selected by the user are printed on the print medium,
- wherein the second screen includes the option region, the second table data region, and a second print image region in which an image of the print medium is displayed, and
- wherein in response to the user selecting a column from the table data displayed in the first table data region and performing a predetermined operation, the display unit displays the second screen by setting the first print image region of the first screen to the second print image region, setting the first table data region of the first screen to the second table data region, and displaying the option region in a pop-up screen.
A non-transitory computer-readable storage medium storing a program for an information processing device, the program executing steps comprising:
- causing the information processing device to acquire table data;
- causing the information processing device to generate print data including an unconverted image in which information stored in the table data is not converted into other information when a user selects a non-conversion option, and generate the print data including a first code image obtained by converting information stored in the table data into a code image of a first type when the user selects a first conversion option;
- and
- causing the information processing device to display, on a display unit, a first screen including a first print image region in which an image of a print medium is displayed and a first table data region in which the table data is displayed,
- causing the information processing device to display, on the display unit, a second screen including an option region in which a plurality of options including the non-conversion option and the first conversion option are displayed and a second table data region in which the table data is displayed, the second screen being displayed on the display unit in response to the user selecting a column from the table data displayed in the first table data region and performing a predetermined operation, and
- causing the information processing device to generate a plurality of print data items identical to the print data so that a plurality of print images based on a plurality of information items identical to the information and stored in the column selected by the user are printed on the print medium,
- wherein the second screen includes the option region, the second table data region, and a second print image region in which an image of the print medium is displayed, and
- wherein in response to the user selecting a column from the table data displayed in the first table data region and performing a predetermined operation, the display unit displays the second screen by setting the first print image region of the first screen to the second print image region, setting the first table data region of the first screen to the second table data region, and displaying the option region in a pop-up screen.
