ABSTRACT:
In a print processing system and method that carries out rasterize processing in order to obtain pixel information for printing purposes from a source file which includes print information written in a predetermined print control language, command sequences that form a meaningful unit in terms of syntax are integrated into drawing and environment contents corresponding to the type of command. Clusters are formed from the drawing contents and the environment contents required to process those drawing contents, and the clusters are assigned to processors, respectively. The assignment of the clusters to the processors is carried out in consideration of overlaps between image elements so as to assure the order of arrangement of the image elements.
