ABSTRACT:
An outputting apparatus comprises: a discriminating circuit to discriminate whether the same pattern as the pattern to be developed at a predetermined position has already been developed in an outputting memory or not; a copying device to copy the same pattern to the predetermined position when the same pattern which has already been developed exists; a memory to store code information, decoration information, and developing position information of the pattern developed in the outputting memory; a cache memory to store patterns whose use frequencies are high; and a deciding circuit to decide whether the pattern in the outputting memory doesn't overlap another pattern or not. A process to develop a character symbol pattern into the outputting memory can be efficiently executed.
