ABSTRACT:
A tape printing device which prints an input text consisting of one or more lines of characters on tape. In case of this tape printing device, a judgement portion judges whether the number of lines of characters of the input text is not less than two, and whether or not a character-size entrusting mode, in which a character size to be assigned to each line is automatically determined, is selected. Subsequently, in case where the character-size entrusting mode is selected and the number of lines of characters of the input text is not less than two, a character-size determination portion generates length information representing a length of each line, to which a same character size is assigned, and determines the character-size attribute of each line according to the length information in such a manner to equalize lengths of at least two longest lines of characters of the input text. Thereafter, a print portion performs a printing of the input text according to the determined character-size attribute of each line.
