Data processing apparatus that enables import/export of setting value, control method therefor, and storage medium storing control program therefor

摘要

A data processing apparatus that is capable of reducing the garbling of characters caused by the difference among the character codes when setting data are transferred to another apparatus by the import-export function. A storage unit stores setting data for the data processing apparatus. A receiving unit receives an instruction for exporting the setting data stored in the storage unit. A converting unit converts Unicode data included in the setting data into character code data of language, which is set to the data processing apparatus. An export unit exports the character code data converted by the converting unit and the Unicode data.

1. A data processing apparatus comprising:
a receiving unit configured to receive an instruction for importing setting data for the data processing apparatus; a converting unit configured to convert character code data included in the setting data that is not Unicode data into Unicode data; and a storage control unit configured to store the Unicode data converted by said converting unit into a storage unit when the character code data included in the setting data to be imported according to the instruction received by said receiving unit is not Unicode data, and to store the character code data included in the setting data into the storage unit without conversion by said converting unit when the character code data included in the setting data to be imported according to the instruction is Unicode data.
