Method and apparatus for print processing, and storage medium

Abstract

To perform page-layout printing, intermediate data having a data form different from print data is generated. The generated intermediate data is controlled in logical page unit, and the logical pages are edited in accordance with the page layout. On a physical page, a plurality of logical pages are reduced and laid out. A character print command, an image rendering command, and a graphic rendering command are replaced with predetermined data by the intermediate-data replacement editing process so as to reduce the amount of data to be outputted. As a result, the amount of data conversion at the time of printing an outline of contents of the page is reduced, and printing time can be reduced.
