Abstract: A page description language processing device is provided for supporting a plurality of types of page description languages. In one example, the device may be configured to read a command from data input and determine whether the command should be converted into a common intermediate code. If the judgment unit judges that the command should be converted into the common command, the controller may store a common intermediate command in the intermediate code storage unit. If the judgment unit judges that the command should not be converted into the common command, the controller may store a special intermediate command in the intermediate code storage unit. Additionally or alternatively, the device may execute a common module for the common intermediate command and a special module for the special intermediate command.

Abstract: A scanner device may create original data in an internal storage unit. The original data may include header information and actual image data representing a scan target object. The header information may include a first value as size information. The size information may indicate a size of image data corresponding to a scanning direction. In a case where the size of the actual image data is smaller than the first value, the original data may further include specific image data such that the size of entire image data including the actual image data and the specific image data is identical to the first value. The scanner device may calculate a digest value by utilizing the original data so as to create purpose data in an external storage unit by utilizing the original data and the digest value.
