Abstract
In a case where image data for which brief spot color matching has been performed is stored by a BOX function, it is not possible to output the image data in correct color on a condition that the image data is transmitted to another device as it is. In a case where image data is stored by the BOX function, in a printer driver that generates PDL data therefor, a color matching method of type accompanied by the brief spot color matching is not allowed to be set.
Claims5
A non-transitory computer readable storage medium storing a printer driver for causing a computer to execute processes, the processes comprising:
- generating PDL data;
- outputting the generated PDL data;
- determining, on the basis that instructions to store the PDL data in an image forming apparatus capable of printing processing based on the PDL data are selected as a method of the output, not to allow setting of execution of replacement processing to replace a specific color with another color at the time of the printing processing for the PDL data to be generated in the generating;
- and
- determining, on the basis that instructions to print an image based on the PDL data are selected as the method of the output, to allow setting of execution the of replacement processing for the PDL data to be generated in the generating.
