Abstract
A drawing apparatus includes a management part managing data recorded in a recording part, a first obtaining part obtaining data for drawing, which is used in common by a plurality of programs, without using the management part, when the management part is not started up or cannot be used and a drawing part performing drawing based on the data for drawing.
Claims15
A drawing apparatus comprising a management part for managing data recorded in a recording part, comprising:
- a first obtaining part configured to obtain data for drawing, which is used in common by a plurality of programs, without using the management part, when the management part cannot be initialized or is malfunctioning;
- a drawing part configured to draw based on the data for drawing obtained by the first obtaining part, said data for drawing including character data in respective versions of a plurality of different languages;
- a search part configured to search for the data for drawing recorded in said recording part;
- a storage part configured to store a plurality of country identification codes;
- a second obtaining part configured to obtain default data for drawing previously prepared in response to a search result provided by said search part;
- and
- a selection part configured to read a country identification code from the storage part, and to select from among the respective versions of the character data based on the read country identification code.
A computer readable information recording medium including a drawing program stored thereon, and comprising instructions for causing a computer to execute the steps of:
- a) obtaining data for drawing, which is used in common by a plurality of programs, without using a management part, which manages data recorded in a recording part, when the management part cannot be initialized or is malfunctioning;
- b) performing drawing based on the data for drawing, said data for drawing including character data in respective versions of a plurality of different languages;
- c) searching for the data for drawing recorded in said recording part;
- d) obtaining default data for drawing previously prepared in response to a search result provided by said search part;
- e) storing a plurality of country identification codes;
- f) reading a country identification code;
- and
- g) selecting from among the respective versions of the character data based on the read country identification code.
A drawing method implemented by a computer having a processor and memory comprising the steps of:
- a) obtaining data for drawing, which is used in common by a plurality of programs executed by the computer, without using a management part of the computer, which manages data recorded in a recording part of the computer, when the management part cannot be initialized or is malfunctioning;
- b) performing with the computer drawing based on the data for drawing, said data for drawing including character data in respective versions of a plurality of different languages;
- c) searching for the data for drawing recorded in said recording part;
- d) obtaining default data for drawing previously prepared in response to a search result provided by said search part;
- e) storing with the computer a plurality of country identification codes;
- f) reading with the computer a country identification code;
- and
- g) selecting with the computer from among the respective versions of the character data based on the read country identification code.
