<P>PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To perform rapid print processing by dividing a page in virtual bands to store the weight of processing for drawing data belonging to the band as an object coefficient, and by switching to produce PDL data by page unit, or to produce the PDL data by band unit, on the basis of the information, in a printing system which converts the drawing data into the PDL data by a printer driver to print the data on a page printer. <P>SOLUTION: The printing system comprises a means which assumes the virtual band and spools while recording the weight of the processing of the drawing data for each band; a means for deciding whether the processing is to be performed by page unit or band unit, on the basis of the recorded weight information on the processing; and a means for producing PDL data according to the decision. <P>COPYRIGHT: (C)2005,JPO&NCIPI |
