ABSTRACT:
When there occurs a need to perform resolution conversion while a drawing object, such as a character, is formed, deterioration of print quality is reduced by selecting a reforming method according to the type of font. The quality of other pages is prevented from deteriorating in a case in which a drawing object is referenced at the same time from different pages by forming another drawing object. Prevention of deterioration of quality is achieved by selecting a method of forming (for example, by rescaling when the font is scalable) a pattern having a different resolution according to the type of font in a case in which a drawing object is formed on the basis of print data. Further, prevention of deterioration of quality is achieved where a drawing object is shared among a plurality of pages by forming another drawing object when a decreased resolution is desired.
