Abstract: An information processing apparatus that can operate under the control of an operating system configured to allow changing an enlargement rate in units of job and can generate print data corresponding to a plurality of pages to be printed by a printing apparatus. A setting input unit inputs borderless print settings for performing a borderless printing and bordered print settings for performing a bordered printing applied to a predetermined page. An enlargement designation unit instructs an enlargement rate to the operating system, a decision unit determines whether a page to be processed is the predetermined page, a margin creation unit forms a margin in a peripheral region of the data enlarged by the operating system, and, a print data generation unit generates print data corresponding to a plurality of pages to be printed by the printing apparatus.

Abstract: Image-recording technology records images displayed on a screen onto an image sheet. An image-recording assembly has an image sheet and an associated opaque shield. The shield is slidable to expose the image sheet to the image displayed on the screen. The image sheet may be of the type which has microcapsules containing photo-hardenable chemicals coated onto a base sheet. The image-recording assembly is positioned in front of a screen displaying an image with a user exposing the image sheet by shiffing the position of the shield. The exposure time may be controlled manually by the user or automatically by software displaying the image on the screen. To develop the image sheet, unexposed microcapsules are ruptured by either applying pressure to the image sheet or forcefully sliding the image sheet across a sharp edge. The image-recording assembly may be flexible and is preferably less than 15 mils thick.
