A device includes a touch-screen display and a lens on a same side of the device as the touch-screen display. The device concurrently displays a live preview of content in a field of view of the lens and a capture affordance for capturing media corresponding to the field of view of the lens. While concurrently displaying the live preview and the capture affordance, the device detects an input corresponding to selection of the capture affordance displayed on the touch-screen display that is on the same side of the device as the lens. In response to detecting the input corresponding to selection of the capture affordance displayed on the touch-screen display that is on the same side of the device as the lens, the device captures media corresponding to the field of view of the lens that is on the same side of the device as the touch-screen display.

The mode setting unit sets the mode of the display unit to a blind mode. An operation for the mode setting unit to set the mode of the display unit to the blind mode is input to the input unit. The image changing unit changes the mode of the display unit from the normal mode to the blind mode based on the operation input to the input unit, and changes at least one of the color and density of the display image of the display unit according to the blind mode. When an operation for setting the mode of the display unit to the blind mode is input to the input unit, the display unit displays a preview image obtained by changing the image data before the image forming unit forms on the sheet in accordance with the blind mode as the display image of the display screen.

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.

An information processing apparatus includes a display and circuitry. The circuitry controls the display to display a first display field for displaying a first image of document data, a second display field for displaying a second image based on a first data generated by an image reading device reading a print sample, a third display field for displaying a third image based on a second data generated by the image reading device reading a printed matter printed out by an image forming apparatus based on the document data, and a fourth display field for displaying a fourth image after execution of color matching for color of the third image to be matched with color of the second image based on the document data.

A digital camera with a printer is a digital camera with a printer and includes a communication unit that communicates with a digital camera with a printer that is another apparatus, and an image composition unit that generates a composite image in which a first image captured by the digital camera with a printer that is an owned apparatus and a second image captured by the other apparatus are composited, in which the communication unit transmits the composite image to the other apparatus. A user of the other apparatus can also obtain the composite image. Accordingly, the composite image can be enjoyed by capturing images using a plurality of cameras.

A non-transitory storage medium stores a plurality of instruction readable by a computer of an information processing apparatus. When executed by the computer, the plurality of instruction cause the information processing apparatus to determine a generating condition such that a number of pixels of the bitmap image in a particular direction is less than or equal to a particular number, obtain the first bitmap data satisfying the generating condition by using the generating condition, determine a magnification condition for magnifying the first bitmap data based on condition information indicating a printing condition, obtain second bitmap data by using the magnification condition, and generate print data by using the second bitmap data.

The embodiments of the present disclosure relate to a method and an apparatus a device, and a medium for posting a video or image. In one exemplary method, present a capturing interface comprising a capturing user interface element. In response to detecting activation of the capturing user interface element in the capturing interface, generate a captured video or image and displaying an editing interface for editing the captured video or image, the editing interface comprising a posting user interface element for posting the captured video or image. In response to detecting activation of the posting user interface element, post the captured video or image. The user may quickly post a captured video by means of a story or a quick post function, being beneficial to increasing the positivity of the user to participate in the creation of short video and increasing user stickiness.

A method for generating output print data for printing multiple copies having at least one variable element onto a print sheet can include: providing a presentation of the print sheet in a workspace of a graphical user interface; determining a basic area in which at least one object is arranged for generation of the variable element; replicating and arranging the basic area having the at least one object, corresponding to a predetermined grid of the copies; and filling of the replicated objects to generate the variable elements with variable print data.

A system and method for document processing includes a controller configured for digital control of multifunction peripheral operations. The controller detects a portable data device and receives configuration data through a near field communication interface. The controller selectively enables of document processing operations of the MFP as specified by received configuration data. The controller generates an active display on a touch screen control panel in accordance with the received configuration data and receives user selection data via the active display on the touch screen control panel. The controller commences a document processing operation in accordance with received user selection data.

An object is to provide a technology that improves user-friendliness of printing. An information processing apparatus includes a memory that stores a program, and a processor that executes the program. The program causes the processor to perform: identifying page data being not printed due to suspension of print processing, the page data marking one page of a plurality of pages in document data to be subjected to printing; and displaying a preview image of the piece of page data being not printed in an automatically selected state.
