摘要

A print control program has a target printer designating step of designating a target printer for printing, a target printer determining step of determining capabilities of the target printer, and a language converting step of converting the page description language into another page description language depending on capabilities of the target printer. A rule creation unit creates a repetition rule corresponding to a repetition element and a rule application unit creates a repetition structure for configuration information using the repetition rule.

主权项

1. An information processing apparatus comprising:
a rule creation unit configured to create a rule for creating configuration information, wherein the created rule includes a repetition rule corresponding to a repetition element; a configuration information creating unit configured to create the configuration information for first page description language (PDL) data by applying the created rule to the first PDL data; a storing unit configured to store the configuration information created by the configuration information creating unit; a print setting unit configured to create a print setting based on a user's instruction, wherein the created print setting is made using job definition format (JDF); a printer designation unit configured to designate a printer for printing; a conversion unit configured to convert the first PDL data into second PDL data based on the configuration information in accordance with a designation of a printer compatible with the second PDL data by the printer designation unit; a print control unit configured to control printing, for the printer compatible with the second PDL data, with the PDL data converted by the conversion unit; and a creation unit configured to create a print setting file for referencing page numbers of the first PDL data based on the configuration information and the created print setting in accordance with a designation of a printer not compatible with the second PDL data by the printer designation unit, wherein the print control unit controls printing, for the printer not compatible with the second PDL data, with the first PDL data and the created print setting file.
