Abstract: A data processing apparatus includes a receiving unit that receives a request of outputting in which a target user for outputting is designated; and an output destination distributing unit that selects an output apparatus specified by an object for which the target user for outputting is being logged in when the receiving unit receives the request of outputting, as an output destination of the request of outputting.

Abstract: In an image forming device adapted to acquire image data and distribute the image data, a storage unit stores respective plug-in modules of an input process, an image transforming process, and an output process with respect to the image data. A combining information acquisition unit acquires combining information including plug-in identifiers which respectively indicate the plug-in modules. A combining unit combines two or more of the plug-in modules to generate a virtual plug-in based on the combining information. A flow setting unit sets up a workflow in which the plug-in modules including the virtual plug-in are combined arbitrarily. A workflow control unit controls processes included in the workflow when a message distribution process based on the workflow is requested.
