In a server, an image generation section stores a generated image in a frame buffer. A compression/encoding section compresses and encodes image data in units of partial images smaller than one frame. A processing order control section, on the basis of information pertaining to a scan order for a display panel connected to an image processing apparatus which is a data transmission destination, controls an order of reading out pixel data from the frame buffer, a shape of a partial image, or a compression and encoding order. The compressed and encoded partial image data is packetized by a packetization section and transmitted to the image processing apparatus by a communication section.
