Abstract
A data processing apparatus that is capable of reducing the garbling of characters caused by the difference among the character codes when setting data are transferred to another apparatus by the import-export function. A storage unit stores setting data for the data processing apparatus. A receiving unit receives an instruction for exporting the setting data stored in the storage unit. A converting unit converts Unicode data included in the setting data into character code data of language, which is set to the data processing apparatus. An export unit exports the character code data converted by the converting unit and the Unicode data.

1-4. (canceled)
A data processing apparatus comprising:
- a store storage unit configured to store setting data for the data processing apparatus;
- a receiving unit configured to receive an instruction for importing setting data of the data processing apparatus;
- a converting unit configured to convert character code data included in the setting data that is not Unicode data into Unicode data;
- and
- an import unit configured to import the Unicode data converted by said converting unit when the setting data imported according to an instruction received by said receiving unit is not Unicode data, and to import data without conversion by said converting unit when the setting data imported according to the instruction is Unicode data.
(canceled)
A control method for a data processing apparatus comprising:
- storing setting data for the data processing apparatus;
- receiving an instruction for importing setting data for the data processing apparatus;
- converting character code data included in the setting data that is not Unicode data into Unicode data;
- and
- importing the Unicode data converted by said converting when the setting data imported according to an instruction received in said receiving is not Unicode data, and importing data without converting when the setting data imported according to the instruction is Unicode data.
(canceled)
A non-transitory computer-readable storage medium storing a computer-readable program and the program computer executable codes to perform a control method for a data processing apparatus, the control method comprising:
- storing setting data for the data processing apparatus;
- receiving an instruction for importing setting data for the data processing apparatus;
- converting character code data included in the setting data that is not Unicode data into Unicode data;
- and
- importing the Unicode data converted by said converting when the setting data imported according to an instruction received by said receiving unit is not Unicode data, and importing data without converting when the setting data imported according to the instruction is Unicode data.
