Information processing apparatus, information processing program, and system and method for manufacturing decorative sheet

A method for manufacturing a decorative sheet, which is attached to an article to decorate the article, the method comprising:

• acquiring an image of the article;
• generating a three-dimensional model of the article based on the image of the article;
• arranging a design on at least a part of a surface of the three-dimensional model and generating image data for printing an arranged design on a pressure-sensitive adhesive sheet;
• receiving medium selection information including a use condition for use of the decorative sheet, and at least one of adherend information of the article, which is an adherend, and a material of the decorative sheet;
• receiving at least any of a use period in which the decorative sheet is used, and an environmental condition under which the decorative sheet is used as the use condition;
• and
• selecting the pressure-sensitive adhesive sheet to be used for the decorative sheet based on the medium selection information.

A non-transitory computer-readable storage medium storing an information processing program causing a computer to perform:

• acquiring an image of an article to be decorated by attaching a decorative sheet;
• generating a three-dimensional model of the article based on the image of the article;
• arranging a design on at least a part of a surface of the three-dimensional model and generating image data for printing an arranged design on a pressure-sensitive adhesive sheet;
• receiving medium selection information including at least any of a use condition for use of the decorative sheet, adherend information of the article, which is an adherend, and a material of the decorative sheet;
• receiving at least any of a use period in which the decorative sheet is used, and an environmental condition under which the decorative sheet is used as the use condition;
• selecting the pressure-sensitive adhesive sheet to be used for the decorative sheet based on the medium selection information;
• and
• transmitting the image data to a printing device that prints an image based on the image data on the pressure-sensitive adhesive sheet.
