An image processing apparatus includes a converter, a reuse portion storage unit, and a reuse information output unit. The converter converts page description language (PDL) data into printable data. The converter stores a conversion result of converting an object appearing in the PDL data multiple times into printable data in a storage device and reuses the conversion result for the object which appears after the conversion result has been stored, instead of converting the object into printable data. The reuse portion storage unit stores information indicating a portion of a page image described by the PDL data for which the conversion result has been reused. The reuse information output unit outputs reuse information indicating a portion of the page image for which the conversion result has been reused, by using the information stored in the reuse portion storage unit.

An information processing apparatus includes a graphics device interface application configured to issue graphics device interface drawing commands in accordance with a print instruction, a conversion module configured to convert the graphics device interface drawing commands to extensible markup language paper specification drawing commands, and a printer driver configured to generate print data of a document file corresponding to the print instruction by using the extensible markup language paper specification drawing commands as an input. In the information processing apparatus, when converting drawing commands for a pattern drawing included in the document file from a graphics device Interface format to an extensible markup language paper specification format, the conversion module sets a pattern resolution of the pattern drawing on the basis of external information.

An image processing system includes a process execution control apparatus to control an execution of processes, and an image generation-output control apparatus to control an execution of an image generation-output operation. The process execution control apparatus includes a control-side drawing information generator to generate drawing information, and a process allocator to allocate a plurality of text information adding processes to the process execution control apparatus and the image generation-output control apparatus when generating the drawing information. The image generation-output control apparatus includes an output-side drawing information generator corresponding to the control-side drawing information generator.

A method and system render rasterized data by receiving non-rasterized page description language data and a corresponding transformation matrix representing transformation operations to be performed. The non-rasterized page description language data is rasterizing to create rasterized data. The corresponding transformation matrix is decomposed into a plurality of individual transformation operation matrices and a discrete transformation operation value, from each corresponding individual transformation operation matrix, is generated for each transformation operation to be performed upon the rasterized data. The transformation operations are performed upon the rasterized data based upon the generated discrete transformation operation values.
