PRINTING SYSTEM, PRINTING DATA-PROCESSING APPARATUS, METHOD FOR PROCESSING PRINTING DATA, AND MEMORY MEDIUM

摘要

PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a printing system which can improve a printing-processing speed. SOLUTION: When a first page is operated in an image mode and a second page is operated in a PDL mode for a printing document having a character 'a' between the first and second pages, a printing indicative command-analyzing means 2704 registers the 'a' of the first page to a glyph caching means 2707 by a glyph registration command. According to a registered glyph printing command, a rendering means 2708 forms the 'a' of the first page as image data upon receipt of an ID designation printing command. When the 'a' of the second page is not registered yet to a transmitted cache-managing means 2709, a printing indicative command-analyzing means 2706 obtains a glyph of the 'a' from the glyph caching means 2707 and issues together with a glyph registration command for registering the 'a' to the printing apparatus a registered printing command in which the 'a' is ID designated.
