<P>PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide an image formation device which enhances a processing speed of image formation by setting a limit value corresponding to an inputted designated paper size for each printing job, and omitting a rasterization process, and to provide an image formation method and an image formation program. <P>SOLUTION: The printing job includes the designated paper size which designates a paper size for plotting characters. A current limit value storage means 112 is set, in which current limit values are stored beforehand correspondingly to a plurality of paper sizes. When the printing job is inputted, a character drawing data conversion means 107 extracts and sets the corresponding current limit value from the current limit value storage means 112 on the basis of the designated paper size. When a format size value is accommodated within the current limit value, plotting data related to the converted printing job is registered in a plotting data storage means 102. <P>COPYRIGHT: (C)2004,JPO&NCIPI |
