ABSTRACT:
In order to provide a technique which can shorten the processing time in large-scale variable print processing, an image processing apparatus includes: an input unit adapted to input a rendering job which includes a single fixed object common to respective pages, and a plurality of variable objects which are independent for respective pages; a designation unit adapted to designate an inclusion region that includes rendering regions respectively for the plurality of rendering objects; a transparent processing unit adapted to generate transparent processed images by executing transparent processing in correspondence with the plurality of transparency attributes for a region of the fixed object that overlaps the inclusion region; a clipping image generation unit adapted to generate a clipping image by clipping a region from the transparent processed image; and a generation unit adapted to generate rendering data by blending the clipping image and the fixed object.
