Complex data processing device and complex data processing methods

摘要

A complex data processing device that processes embroidery data representing an embroidery pattern to be formed on fabric by a sewing machine capable of embroidering and print data representing print pattern to be printed on the fabric by a printer. The complex data processing device includes a data acquiring unit that acquires the embroidery data and the print data, an overlapped region detecting unit that detects an overlapped region at which an embroidery region represented by the embroidery data and a printing region represented by the print data overlap based on the embroidery data and the print data acquired by the data acquiring unit, and a data modifying unit that deletes data corresponding to the overlapped region detected by the overlapped region detecting unit from at least one of the embroidery data and the print data.
