INFORMATION PROCESSING APPARATUS CAPABLE OF CREATING COMMUNICATION APPLICATION, COMPUTER-READABLE NON-TRANSITORY RECORDING MEDIUM WITH APPLICATION CREATING PROGRAM FOR CREATING COMMUNICATION APPLICATION STORED THEREON, AND PROGRAMING TOOL

摘要

An information processing apparatus includes a tool storage section, an acquisition method acceptance section, a template specification acceptance section, and an application creating section. The tool storage section stores a programing tool having a function of acquiring print data from an advertisement delivery server and a function of managing the print data. The acquisition method acceptance section is configured to accept setting of a data acquisition method for acquiring the print data. The template specification acceptance section is configured to accept specification of a template for use in printing the print data. The application creating section is configured to use the programing tool to create a communication application allowing acquisition of the print data according to the accepted data acquisition method and generation of an image according to the accepted template.
