INFORMATION PROCESSING APPARATUS, METHOD OF CONTROLLING INFORMATION PROCESSING APPARATUS, AND STORAGE MEDIUM - A simplified explanation of the abstract
This abstract first appeared for US patent application 18388566 titled 'INFORMATION PROCESSING APPARATUS, METHOD OF CONTROLLING INFORMATION PROCESSING APPARATUS, AND STORAGE MEDIUM
Simplified Explanation
The abstract describes a method for controlling an information processing apparatus to extend a function associated with printing data generation software.
- Adding information on an extended function to printing function information used in the printing data generation software.
- Switching based on a setting value whether to perform skip processing in the conversion of intermediate data.
- Editing the intermediate data when skip processing is performed, and converting the edited data into printing data.
Potential Applications
This technology could be applied in industries where customized printing solutions are required, such as advertising, packaging, and publishing.
Problems Solved
This method solves the problem of efficiently extending the functionality of printing data generation software without disrupting the existing processes.
Benefits
- Enhanced customization options for printing data - Improved efficiency in generating printing data - Seamless integration of extended functions into existing software systems
Original Abstract Submitted
A method of controlling an information processing apparatus configured to execute an extension application associated with printing data generation software operatable in the information processing apparatus to extend a function includes: adding information on an extended function to printing function information used in the printing data generation software; switching in accordance with a setting value stored in common information shared with the extension application whether to perform skip processing in which conversion processing of intermediate data performed by the printing data generation software is skipped; and editing the intermediate data in which the conversion processing is skipped in the printing data generation software in the switching and converting the edited intermediate data into printing data.
