An image forming system executes determination processing with an intensity of an image editing process being a first intensity and a determination threshold being a first value and does not execute the determination processing with the intensity of the image editing process being the first intensity and the determination threshold being a second value. The system executes the determination processing with the intensity of the image editing process being a second intensity greater than the first intensity and the determination threshold being the first value and does not execute the determination processing with the intensity of the image editing process being the second intensity and the determination threshold being the second value.

Provided is a method of controlling an information processing apparatus configured to execute an extension application associated with printing data generation software operatable in the information processing apparatus to extend a function, the method including: obtaining input data including printing setting; displaying a screen related to a specific function on a display unit in a case where it is determined based on the printing setting that the specific function is executed; editing the input data, such that the specific function is executed, to convert the input data into printing data; and transmitting the printing data to a printing apparatus after the screen is displayed on the display unit in the displaying.

An information processing apparatus includes: a receiving unit that receives print setting for a Web page from an operator; a requesting unit that requests data on the Web page by transmitting terminal information set on the basis of the print setting to a Web server that provides the data on the Web page; and a generation unit that generates print data on the basis of the data on the Web page obtained from the Web server in response to a request from the requesting unit.

An information processing apparatus includes a first setting unit configured to set a layout pattern for a perforation process or a crease process on paper in response to selection by a user, a second setting unit configured to set the number of aggregated pages laid out on a print side of the paper in response to selection by the user, and a control unit configured to perform first processing to avoid selection of a predetermined number of aggregated pages in the second setting unit based on a first layout pattern selected in the first setting unit.

An image forming apparatus includes a reception unit and a control unit. The reception unit receives print data. The control unit performs control to display, on a display unit, a sheet setting method for setting a sheet to be used to print the print data, based on a state where a predetermined setting is included in the received print data.

A processing job generation apparatus includes an acquisition unit that acquires first information on a print image, and a processing position setting unit that causes a print image and a processing mark indicating a processing position of processing to be performed on the sheet to be simultaneously displayed on the display device, and sets a processing position on basis of the print image and the processing mark displayed on the display device.

Described herein is a computer implemented method. The method includes selecting a plurality of elements on a design page and, for each selected element, determining a plurality of edge bleed pairs, each edge bleed pair including a particular edge and a particular bleed of the design page. Each edge bleed pair is processed to determine whether the selected element should be resized, the determination being based on the position of the particular edge relative to the particular bleed. If the determination is that the element should be resized, the method involves resizing the selected element so that the element covers a greater portion of the particular bleed than was originally covered by the element.

An image forming apparatus comprising: an acceptance section; a prediction section which predicts, based on margin information contained in an instruction for execution of an accepted job, an arrangement pattern of a plurality of sheets to be obtained by the execution; a determination section which determines, based on the margin information, whether or not a sum of respective areas of margin regions of the plurality of sheets is greater than a threshold associated with the predicted arrangement pattern; and an adjusted printing section which downscales, in response to a determination that the sum is greater than the threshold, an overall image consisting of a set of partial images intended to be formed and arranged in the predicted arrangement pattern, in such a manner as to fall within one or more sheets arranged in an altered arrangement pattern, and forms the downscaled image on the one or more sheets.

A set of computer-readable instructions, when executed by a computer in an information processing device, causes the information processing device to perform: a setting process; and in response to receiving a print instruction in which a cut print setting is set: a generation process; and a transmission process. The setting process sets the cut print setting for printing an image on a sheet and dividing the printed sheet at a center position thereof in a prescribed direction. The generation process acquires first and second page data representing respective ones of first and second target images to generate layout image data representing a layout image in which first and second images corresponding to respective ones of the first and second target images are arranged adjacent to each other in the prescribed direction. The transmission process transmits print data based on the layout image data and a cut command to a printer.

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.
