A computer program product and apparatus suitable may perform operations including receiving a first digital image, and identifying a pixel resolution of a display, the pixel resolution of the display being less than a pixel resolution of the first digital image. The operations may further include providing first data to the display to cause display of the first digital image at an image resolution adapted to the identified pixel resolution, wherein a section of the first digital image displayed on the display includes a first area of the display. The operations may further include receiving a user-initiated instruction to zoom in on the section of the first digital image, and providing, in response to receiving the user-initiated instruction, second data to the display to cause display of the section of the first digital image over a second area of the display that is greater than the first area.

An electronic album editing device acquires image information and metadata from a storage unit and generates image data. An image identification device includes an image acquisition unit and an image identification unit. The image acquisition unit acquires image information and metadata corresponding to the image information. The image identification unit identifies a type of the acquired image information. The image identification unit identifies a target image as image information for which an actual size ratio can be specified if the metadata includes first information for ascertaining a size when a pixel size of the image information is projected to an object side. An actual size ratio calculation unit calculates an image size corresponding to the actual size ratio using the metadata when the image identification unit has identified an image for which the actual size ratio can be specified.

Provided are an image enlargement/reduction rate calculation apparatus, an image enlargement/reduction rate calculation method, and an image enlargement/reduction rate calculation program which are capable of outputting an image with a small blurriness degree. A blurriness value is calculated for each image area, and the smallest blurriness value is decided (step S24). Resolution of a printer that prints the image is read (step S25). An enlargement/reduction rate in which the blurriness value is equal to or smaller than a second threshold value is calculated based on the decided blurriness value (step S26).

A method of controlling an information processing apparatus includes displaying an edit screen including an obtained image and a print range frame based on obtained print setting information, accepting an edit operation of arrangement of the image in the edit screen, generating image data based on an edited image, and transmitting the generated image data and the print setting information to the image forming apparatus as a print job. Where the image has been edited such that there is a region where the image is not arranged in the print range frame, combining processing in which a predetermined image is added in the region is performed and whereby image data including the image and predetermined image is generated, and where the image has been edited such that there is no region where the image is not arranged in the print range frame, the combining processing is not performed.

A method of digital printing is disclosed in which a digital image to be printed has at least one region having pixels comprising superpositioned layers of a first ink and a second ink. The method includes producing at least one sample print and calibrating misalignment of the superpositioned layers at a plurality of calibration locations on the sample print. The resultant misalignment data is provided to a morphing program to pre-deform the digital image to provide a modified digital image which compensates for misalignment during printing. The image is then printed using the modified digital image. An apparatus and a machinereadable storage medium comprising instructions executable by a processor are also disclosed.

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.
