Abstract
The print data generating apparatus capable of generating print data for VDP in a plurality of formats, classifies an object layout of the print data (steps from S107 to S109, or steps from S112 to S114), selects a predetermined format for the classification result in the steps from S107 to S109 or in the steps from S112 to S114, from the plurality of formats (S111, S116, or S117), and generates the print data in the selected format in S111, S116, or S117 (S118).
Claims15
A print data generating apparatus capable of generating print data for VDP in a plurality of formats comprising:
- a layout classifying unit for classifying layout of objects which constitute said print data;
- a format selecting unit for selecting a predetermined format for classification result by said layout classifying unit from said plurality of formats;
- and
- a data generating unit for generating said print data in said selected format by said format selecting unit.
A print data generating method for generating print data for VDP in a plurality of formats comprising steps of:
- (A) classifying layout of objects which constitute said print data;
- (B) selecting a predetermined format for classification result in said step (A) from said plurality of formats;
- and
- (C) generating said print data in said selected format in said step (B).
A computer readable recording medium storing a program for generating print data for VDP in a plurality of formats, said program causing a print data generating apparatus to perform steps of:
- (A) classifying layout of objects which constitute said print data;
- (B) selecting a predetermined format for classification result in said step (A) from said plurality of formats;
- and
- (C) generating said print data in said selected format in said step (B).
