ABSTRACT:
A printer controller receives PDL data from a host computer, which is then analyzed by a PDL analysis program in the order received, and converted to an intermediate-language data, and stored in an intermediate-language-data buffer. When an overlay-registration start command is read, generated intermediate-language data is stored in a file system until an overlay-registeration end command is read. The levels of overlapping between one stored intermediate-language element and the other elements are calculated for each element. When overlapped, the size required to develop the overlapping elements together with the corresponding image data is calculated. The calculated size of the image data is compared with the total size of the original intermediate-language data. When the image data is smaller in size, the image data is developed and registered as intermediate-language data, thus reducing the total size of the intermediate-language data.
