The present invention provides a method of outputting page data representing a one-page image generated by an image-integrating applications program, upon condition that parts data generated by a link applications program are accurately reproduced and incorporated in the page data, as well as an output system for the same. A first applications program generates first parts-describing data, which describe an image of a first image part, from internal data representing the one-page image. When the first applications program detects the existence of a second image part in the internal data, an instruction is given to a second applications program to generate parts-describing data for describing an image of the second image part. The second applications program then generates second parts-describing data, which describe the image of the second image part, in response to the instruction. PDL data representing the one-page image are eventually generated, based on the first parts-describing data and the second parts-describing data.
