Abstract:
A portable type terminal device may switch between a first state in which a specific image is shown in a display such that an up-down direction of the specific image is along a first direction, and a second state in which the specific image is shown in the display such that the up-down direction of the specific image is along a second direction. A controlling device mounted on the portable type terminal device may create print data for causing a printer to perform a first type of a print in both of a first case where a print of the specific image is instructed in the first state and a second case where the print of the specific image is instructed in the second state. In the first type of the print, the left-right direction of the specific image may be along a short side of a print medium.

An image formation device capable of forming a plurality of reduced images on an output medium comprises an input data acquisition unit which acquires input data, a recognizability judgment unit which judges whether each reduced image to be formed corresponding to each piece of input data acquired by the input data acquisition unit is recognizable to a user or not based on the input data and size of the reduced image to be formed, and a reduced image formation unit which forms the reduced images that are judged to be recognizable by the recognizability judgment unit on the output medium while prohibiting the formation of the reduced images that are judged to be unrecognizable by the recognizability judgment unit.
Abstract:
A server provides converted data to an external apparatus in response to plural request commands. The converted data is generated by converting target data and is divided to plural partial data to be stored in an external storage device. The server acquires one or more untransmitted partial data as a portion of the plural partial data from the external storage device each time when one request command is received, and writes the acquired one or more untransmitted partial data in an internal storage device of the server. The server transmits at least a portion of the one or more untransmitted partial data written in the internal storage device, to the external apparatus, each time when one request command of the plurality of request commands is received.
Abstract:
An image forming apparatus is provided with a data retrieving unit that retrieves index image data and associating file information corresponding files from a recording medium. The index image data and associating tile information are allocated to a plurality of arrangement sections. The index image data and associating file information may be printed on a printing sheet in accordance with a predetermined layout. A judging unit is provided to judge whether the associating file information is less than or equal to a predetermined length, The associating file information which is longer than the predetermined length is normally printed incompletely so as to he printed within the arrangement section. A layout modifying unit is provided to modify the predetermined layout for the arrangement section if the associating file information is longer than the predetermined length so that the associating file information is printed completely on the printing sheet.
Abstract:
Text data corresponding to at least a part of a text contained in the file or picture data corresponding to at least a part of a picture contained in the file is extracted. Thumbnail data to be used as an index thumbnail using the extracted text data or the extracted picture data is generated. An output size of the thumbnail is set by adjusting the output size according to the characteristics of the file from which each thumbnail data is extracted. For each file, an index data is generated by using the thumbnail data of the set output size. The generated index data can be displayed or printed.
Abstract:
An image output apparatus may be configured to create one piece of image data in a bit-mapped format from PDL data described by a page description language, and output a plurality of pieces of image data as one page of an output image. The image output apparatus may input data files. The data files may include at least two data files, one of which may be described by a first page description language and the other of which may be described by a second page description language. The image output apparatus may determine, for each of the data files, with respect to at least one page of PDL data included in the data file, a position in which one piece of image data corresponding to the PDL data is to be disposed within the output image. The image output apparatus may create, for each of the data files, with respect to at least one page of PDL data included in the data file, one piece of intermediate language data described by an intermediate language from the PDL data. The image output apparatus may create, for each piece of the intermediate language data, one piece of image data from the piece of intermediate language data, and write the one piece of image data in a position within a memory corresponding to the determined position with respect to the original PDL data of the one piece of image data. The image output apparatus may output the plurality of pieces of image data as one page of the output image in accordance with the stored contents of the memory.

Abstract:
Non-transitory, computer-readable storage media, terminal devices, and methods are disclosed herein. The terminal device includes a processor and communicates selectively using one of many wireless communication systems comprising a first and second wireless communication system. The computer-readable media store computer-readable instructions therein. The instructions instruct the processor to generate first specific image data representing a first image when the first wireless communication system is specified. The instructions instruct the processor to store the first specific image data when the terminal device receives a first print instruction to print the first image while the first wireless communication system is specified. The instructions instruct the processor to provide first print data, based on the stored first specific image data, to the printing device when the wireless communication setting is changed from the first wireless communication system to the second wireless communication system after storing the first specific image data.
