Abstract: An output control device includes an output instruction unit configured to give an instruction for outputting a single output information item, to an application requesting output of the single output information item as plural output information items having the same identification information based on an output instruction, and to subsequently give an instruction to output end information indicating an end of the single output information item; a storage control unit configured to store the output information items output from the application in a save area upon changing the identification information of the output information items into different identification information items; a determination unit configured to determine whether the instruction to output the end information has been given; and a combining unit configured to combine the output information items stored in the save area, when the determination unit determines that the instruction to output the end information has been given.

Abstract: An information processing apparatus includes: a determining unit that determines whether first direction of a document that is first allocated on a first printing sheet in combination, matches second direction, which represents an orientation of a document that is first allocated on a second printing sheet in combination; a changing unit that changes, if the first direction does not match the second direction, an output order of the documents to be printed on the second printing sheet such that, if the orientation of the second printing sheet does not match the first direction after the documents to be output are allocated on the second printing sheet in accordance with a designated combining order, an order in which the documents are arranged when to be printed on the second sheet matches the designated combining order; and an output control unit that outputs the documents in a changed output order.
