<P>PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a print job processor generating print job data so as to be reproduced from a printed matter obtained from the print job data. <P>SOLUTION: The print job data consisting of layout data in a PDL format and a print processing condition necessary for print processing are symbolized by a predetermined encoding mechanism. Image data of the obtained symbol are transformed into a PDL. Print job data formed by synthesizing the PDL into layout data are subjected to print processing. When print processing is carried out, a printed matter PM, in which the symbol SB is added to an entity image IM as an image of expression contents intended in layout, is obtained. When the symbol SB is read by a predetermined reproduction processor having a decoding mechanism matching the encoding mechanism to be decoded, first print job data can be restored faithfully. In this way, once a document is stored as a printed matter, reprinting from the print job data can be easily and surely carried out without storing any electronic data. <P>COPYRIGHT: (C)2006,JPO&NCIPI |
