Abstract: A graphical object processor has a single filter. The filter includes a program for constructing a pipeline consisted of a plurality of stages based on a print ticket. In one or more of the plurality of stages, a content box of print-target data is modified. When the content box is modified, commands respectively indicating affine transformation matrices are generated. The commands are pushed into a command stack. The pushed commands are used for modification of a visual element. Specifically, the affine transformation matrices are multiplied and thereby an integrated transformation matrix is generated. The visual element is modified by multiplying an affine transformation matrix of the visual element by the integrated transformation matrix.

Abstract: A communication device having a communication unit configured to communicate with a contents storage storing contents information and location information in associated manner, and to communicate with an external device. The communication device obtains the location information from the contents storage, modifies the location information to access information causing an access to the communication device, and transmits the same to the external device. An identifying unit identifies the location information corresponding to the access information if it is selected in the external device and second access to the communication device is made, in response to the selection of the access information through the communication unit. A contents obtaining unit obtains contents information directed by the location information identified by the identifying unit, through the communication unit, and an execution unit generates the contents based on the contents information and outputs the same.
