Abstract
A print data processing apparatus that controls data transmitted to and received from a printer, includes an extension attaching unit that selectively attaches a first extension corresponding to a kind of a formed application or a second extension corresponding to the control process to data outputted to the printer, and a transmission performing unit that transmits data to which the extension is attached to the printer. When the printer is controlled to perform a preset control process, the extension attaching unit attaches a second extension corresponding to the control process to the data.
