A print format adjustment system includes a receiving module, a visual condition determination module, a print format determination module, and a print control module. The receiving module receives content for printing in a first print format. The visual condition determination module establishes the sharpness of vision of a viewer in front of a display, at a predetermined view distance. The print format determination module determines a second print format based on both the first print format and the visual condition of the viewer. The print control module prints the content in the second print format.

No. 13/327,998, Filed Dec. 16, 2011, and “ADJUSTING DISPLAY FORMAT IN ELECTRONIC DEVICE”, U.S. application Ser. No. 13/328,019, Filed on Dec. 16, 2011.
1. Technical Field
The disclosure generally relates to a system and a method for adjusting print format in an electronic device.
Many aspects of the embodiments can be better understood with reference to the following drawings. The components in the drawings are not necessarily drawn to scale, the emphasis instead being placed upon clearly illustrating the principles of the embodiments. Moreover, in the drawings, like reference numerals designate corresponding parts throughout the several views.
FIG. 1 is a schematic diagram of one embodiment of an electronic device with a print format adjustment system.
FIG. 2 is a schematic diagram of one embodiment of the function modules of the print format adjustment system of FIG. 1.
The disclosure is illustrated by way of example and not by way of limitation in the figures of the accompanying drawings in which like references indicate similar elements. It should be noted that references to “an” or “one” embodiment in this disclosure are not necessarily to the same embodiment, and such references mean at least one.
In general, the word “module”, as used herein, refers to logic embodied in hardware or firmware, or to a collection of software instructions, written in a programming language, such as, Java, C, or assembly. One or more software instructions in the modules may be embedded in firmware, such as in an EPROM. The modules described herein may be implemented as either software and/or hardware modules and may be stored in any type of non-transitory computer-readable medium or other storage device. Some non-limiting examples of non-transitory computer-readable media include CDs, DVDs, BLU-RAY, flash memory, and hard disk drives.
FIG. 1 is a schematic diagram of one embodiment of an electronic device 10. In one embodiment, the electronic device 10 includes a print format adjustment system 100, at least one central processing unit (CPU) 110, a storage unit 120, a display 130, and other I/O device(s) 140. The electronic device 10 implements the functions of the print format adjustment system 100. The electronic device 10 may be a general purpose computing device such as a desktop computer, a tablet computer, a personal digital assistant (PDA), or a smart phone. The electronic device 10 may also be a multi-function printer.
