ABSTRACT:
There is provided a character-string information output apparatus that can avoid any confusion due to a difference between character string commands, and that can improve its expandability.An image writing apparatus analyzes commands identical in information content to character string information to which an input instruction has been issued. The analyzed support commands are all written onto a nonvolatile memory through a card drive. On the other hand, an electrophotographic image processing apparatus searches a DPOF file on the nonvolatile memory for all commands through a card read drive. From among the searched commands, a command that the electrophotographic image processing apparatus can support is extracted as a target command for the electrophotographic image processing apparatus. Then, the ROM is searched to determine whether there is font information to output the character string information included in the extracted command, so that the character string information is outputted based on the searched font information.
