Abstract: An apparatus includes a memory to store a program and a processor to execute the program stored in the memory. The processor selects randomly output target images from output target candidate images and generates a plurality of layout images, each of which is generated by laying out the selected output target image. A template includes at least one image layout area. The processor determines a layout image from the generated plurality of layout images, by evaluating the selected target images included in each of the generated plurality of layout images according to both of first information corresponding to a user's evaluations for each of the selected output target images and second information based on an output history of each of the selected output target images in accordance with user designations. The processor outputs the determined layout image.

Abstract: An embodiment of this invention solves memory shortage that occurs in enlargement processing of an image because a web application holds data of an image or the like not as binary data but as character string data. In the embodiment, a processor in an information processing apparatus executes a program including a first program layer with an instruction set to be interpreted and executed by the processor and a second program layer with an instruction set interpreted in advance by a unit other than the processor in the following way. That is, the first program layer draws an image, and divides and enlarges the drawn image using a memory. Image data of each of a plurality of images obtained by the division and enlargement is output from the second program layer to an external device.

Abstract: When performing image processing on a designated image by the function of the application, image data of the designated image is obtained in a second layer constituted by an instruction set executable by a processor. In a first layer constituted by a script instruction set, the print script of print content including the image data which has been obtained and converted into a data format interpretable by the first layer in the second layer is generated. The print script is rendered into print image data corresponding to a print resolution by interpreting the generated print script.
