  • Patent number: 8786878
    Abstract: A print processing device includes: a display device that displays a print preview of a print document; a plurality of application programs; an application specifying part that specifies the application program which is used to compose the print document; a print mode setting part that stores print mode setting information; an application determining part that determines whether or not the application program specified by the application specifying part is a program that is likely not to provide to the print mode setting part a print orientation information in correspondence with the print document as actually printed; a print preview display method deciding part that determines a display method of the print preview based on a determination result by the application determining part; and a print preview displaying part that displays the print preview according to the display method decided by the print preview display method deciding part.

  • Publication number: 20040263907
    Abstract: A page processing apparatus for forming layout information showing an allocating position of each page for multi-page printing in which a plurality of pages are arranged to one print medium and printed has: a page designating unit which designates a page to be overlapped and an overlapping page among the pages; an area designating unit which designates an overlap possible area or an overlap inhibition area to an area of the designated page to be overlapped and obtains the designated area as area information; and a layout information obtaining unit which determines a layout position of each page on the basis of the obtained area information and obtains a predetermined page layout as layout information. A good print result is obtained in the multi-page printing.
