Print control apparatus, print control method, and storage medium

A print control method comprising:

• analyzing a script containing page data described using a language that can describe reusable objects differently from objects to be rendered only one time;
• extracting page data exclusively constituted by reusable objects, from the page data described in the script;
• generating rendering processing completed data by performing rendering processing on the extracted page data;
• storing the generated rendering processing completed data in association with page data serving as a generation source of the rendering processing completed data in a storage medium;
• comparing the extracted page data with page data already stored in the storage medium to determine whether the extracted page data matches with the page data already stored in the storage medium;
• and
• outputting rendering processing completed data already stored in the storage medium in association with the page data in a case where it is determined that the extracted page data matches the page data already stored in the storage medium, instead of generating the rendering processing completed data.

A computer-readable storage medium storing a computer program that causes a computer to perform a print control method, the method comprising:

• analyzing a script containing page data described using a language that can describe reusable objects differently from objects to be rendered only one time;
• extracting page data exclusively constituted by reusable objects, from the page data described in the script;
• generating rendering processing completed data by performing rendering processing on the extracted page data;
• storing the generated rendering processing completed data in association with page data serving as a generation source of the rendering processing completed data in a storage medium;
• comparing the extracted page data with page data already stored in the storage medium to determine whether the extracted page data matches the page data already stored in the storage medium;
• and
• outputting rendering processing completed data already stored in the storage medium in association with the page data in a case where it is determined that the extracted page data matches the page data already stored in the storage medium, instead of generating the rendering processing completed data.
