• and
• means for generating the real display position information corresponding to the relative placing position of said object responsive to said arranging direction.

An information processing method comprising:

• generating the information of at least one object that can be displayed;
• generating the layout designating information specifying the relative position direction with respect to the arranging direction of said object;
• and
• generating the drawing information at least including the object information and the layout designating information.

An information processing method comprising:

An information processing method comprising:

• analyzing the drawing information at least including the information containing at least one object that can be displayed, the information pertinent to the size of said object in the line direction and in the line feed direction and the information pertinent to the layout;
• acquiring the coordinate information pertinent to a display start position of said object in a drawing area based on the result of analysis;
• converting the coordinate information pertinent to said display start position based on the layout-related information obtained by the result of said analysis;
• and
• converting the coordinate information pertinent to the converted display start position into the real drawing coordinate information on a drawing area.

An information processing method comprising:

• capturing in storage means the drawing information at least including the information containing at least one object which has been transmitted and which can be displayed, the information pertinent to the size in the line direction and in the line feed direction of said object and the layout-related information;
• analyzing said drawing information stored in said storage means and acquiring the coordinate information pertinent to a display start position of said object in a drawing area based on the result of said analysis;
• converting the coordinate information pertinent to the display start position based on the layout-related information acquired by said results of analysis;
• and
• demonstrating said object on said display means based on said real drawing coordinate information.

An information processing apparatus comprising:

• means for receiving the drawing information at least including the information containing at least one object which has been transmitted and which can be displayed, the information pertinent to the size in the line direction and in the line feed direction of said object and the layout-related information;
