A printer is caused to perform duplex printing by an information processing device in which an OS standard printing program is installed. When causing a printer connected to a PC to execute duplex printing based on a print instruction output from an editing application installed in the PC, an auxiliary program that supports the printer executes rotation processing of rotating an image of a page, which is required to be rotated, by 180° for intermediate data received from a general-purpose print program, executes rearrangement processing of rearranging a processing order from a page order to a print order for print data received from the general-purpose print program, according to a sheet conveying aspect of the printer, and transmits the print data after the rotation processing and the rearrangement processing from the PC to the printer.

Methods, systems, and software are disclosed for a create-to-print document solution. A main processor generates individualized bespoke print material by receiving transmitted customizable third-party data and user input data, comprising, at least in part, project metadata. The third party data and user input data are integrated at the processor to create a plurality of customizable user templates and content.

Provided are an image processing apparatus, a non-transitory computer-readable storage medium storing an imposition control program, and an imposition control method. The hardware processor of the image processing apparatus is configured to impose plural print jobs. When imposing plural print jobs, the hardware processor extracts plural job-imposition layouts suitable for imposing the print jobs from a table stored in a storage unit. The hardware processor calculates the number of blank pages to be given after laying out pages of the print jobs with each of the job-imposition layouts extracted, and determines specific job-imposition layouts with which a smaller number of blank pages are given among the job-imposition layouts extracted. The hardware processor uses a display unit to display the specific job-imposition layouts so as to allow a user to choose a job-imposition layout to be used for imposing the print jobs.

The present invention relates to the field of tile printing. More particularly, it relates to designing random phases for continuous layout ceramic tile applications. The present invention further provides a method [200] for producing a continuous design layout comprising of random faced tiles with joint free pattern of a tile comprising creating [103] prints or design on horizontal and vertical ends of a subset of workpiece obtaining joint free workpiece with random faces and creating [104] design on the middle or center part of each random phase/face. Advantageously the present invention relates to a joint free tile to make easy inventor management in ceramic industry and the final product looks aesthetically very superior.

A point card management system includes a multifunction peripheral that processes an image and a server that is connectable to the multifunction peripheral via a network. The multifunction peripheral includes a read request receiving unit, an image read control unit, and a description information acquisition unit. The description information acquisition unit acquires description information of the point card from the image of the point card read by the image reading unit. The server includes a server hard disk and an extraction unit. The extraction unit extracts the accumulation information of the point card from pieces of information of the point card, which have been stored in the server hard disk, based on the description information of the point card, which has been received.

The printing system includes a handwritten character data extraction unit, a sample character data retrieval unit, a determination unit, a character practice worksheet creating unit, and a print control unit. The determination unit determines whether the matching ratio between a handwritten character extracted by the handwritten character data extraction unit and a sample character retrieved by the sample character data retrieval unit is equal to a first ratio or lower. If the determination unit determines that the matching ratio is equal to the first ratio or lower, the character practice worksheet creating unit creates a character practice worksheet containing the sample character that matches the handwritten character and a blank cell for handwriting practice formed next to the sample character. The print control unit controls the printing unit to print the character practice worksheet created by the character practice worksheet creating unit on paper.

An apparatus includes a storage unit and a control unit. The storage unit stores conflict information indicating that a setting for printing a predetermined number of pages on one surface of one sheet conflicts with a setting for punching a plurality of rows of holes in the one sheet. The control unit performs control to prohibit generation of a print command including the printing and punching settings based on the conflict information stored in the storage unit.

An image forming apparatus includes: a determination section configured to determine whether there is a possibility of generation of an image defect during a printing job for image formation on a plurality of pages based on image data included in the printing job; and a changing section configured to change an order of the pages to be subjected to image formation such that an image defect is not generated when the determination section determines that there is a possibility of generation of the image defect.

A list of a plurality of objects to be displayed, which corresponds to page images to be operated, respectively, is displayed; it is determined which object is selected as an object to be moved among the plurality of displayed objects to be displayed; it is determined which object is selected as a movement destination object among the plurality of displayed objects to be displayed; and allocation page images are displayed in a state where a page image corresponding to the object determined as the object to be moved and a page image corresponding to the object determined as the movement destination object are allocated to a single page.

An imposition device includes an imposing unit that imposes images of plural document pages in a same page order as a pamphlet; a rotation selecting unit that selects whether or not to rotate, by 180 degrees, one of the images that corresponds to a back cover of a pamphlet obtained from a printed material on which the images have been imposed by the imposing unit; and a rotation processing unit that rotates the image that corresponds to the back cover by 180 degrees in a case where rotation of the image that corresponds to the back cover is selected by the rotation selecting unit.
