Provided is a display apparatus that displays a first page and a second page. The display apparatus includes a determining unit configured to determine whether or not the layout of the first page is similar to the layout of the second page by comparing an object included in the first page with an object included in the second page which is different from the first page; and a display unit configured to display the first page on a screen based on a display area having been set by a user, wherein, if the determining unit determines that the layout of the first page is similar to the layout of the second page, the display unit displays the second page on the screen based on the set display area.

Image display apparatus

An image display apparatus for displaying an image containing a plurality of objects includes a setting unit configured to set a display magnification and a display position according to an attribute of a display target object when a first display mode for displaying each object included in the image is specified, and a display control unit configured to perform control to display on a screen the image containing the display target object based on the display magnification and the display position set by the setting unit.

Image display apparatus and image display method

Pieces of device information of a plurality of printing apparatuses, including about paper feed stages provided in the printing apparatuses, are acquired. On the basis of the acquired device information and print data to be processed which includes pages to be printed on different types of paper sheets, a printing apparatus capable of printing the print data without paper exchange during printing is selected.

Information processing apparatus, control method thereof, and program

In an information processing apparatus including a printer driver, when outputting of data generated by executing an application is requested, an output mode selection is performed to select a first output mode in which to output the data generated by the application without data indicating an revise date/time and a second output mode in which to output the data generated by the application together with the data indicating the revise date/time of the data generated by the application. In accordance with the selection, the printer driver controls outputting of data to a printer in the first output mode in which the data generated by the application is output to the printer without the data indicating the revise date/time or in the second output mode in which the data generated by the application is output to the printer together with the data indicating the revise date/time. This allows the revise date/time to be easily reflected in a printed matter produced by the printer.

Method and apparatus for processing data, program, and storage medium on which a computer-readable program is stored

When transferred data is registered, it is determined whether access to the registered data is or is not protected by a password. If it is determined that a password is necessary, an inquiry is made to the registration request side, as to whether or not registration processing is to be continued. If a response of agreeing to the registration is received, registration processing is continued, while if a response of not agreeing to the registration is received, the registration processing is stopped. When a request of outputting registered data is received, it is determined whether or not password is necessary to output the registered data. If it is determined that password is necessary, password input is requested to an output request side. If a password inputted by the output request side is correct output processing is continued, while if the password is not correct, the output processing is stopped.

Secure data processing for image forming apparatus

A data processing apparatus executes a plurality of types of jobs. In this apparatus, it is determined whether the execution history of each type of job is to be indicated. The execution history is stored if it is determined that it is to be indicated. The execution history is then transmitted to a PC on a network connected to the data processing apparatus and is displayed as a history list.

Processing of multiple data transfer jobs

A data processing apparatus comprises process means for executing a predetermined process based on the input instruction, connection means for connection with an external device, display means for displaying information based on the data received from the external device through the connection means, discrimination means for discriminating whether the input by the instruction input means has not been executed for a predetermined period. Control means causes the display means to execute display based on the data received from the external device through the connection means, in case the discrimination means judges that the input instruction has not been executed for the predetermined period.

Method for displaying desired message in display unit of data processing apparatus for various processes

A method to enhance the copy or printout efficiency and decrease the number of output jobs that are abandoned because of undesirable outputs. Abort of output due to absence of sheets or staples, overload of a delivery tray, or the like is predicted. If output abort is determined, data is removed from an output queue and re-registered as an output reserve job at the end of the queue.

Image processing apparatus and method

An image formation apparatus obtains optimum double-face print output results aligned in a binding direction even if plural recording sheet sizes mixedly exist in one document. To do so, a CPU of a formatter unit judges consistency between image formation directions on different-size recording sheets on the basis of a designation state of a short edge binding double-face mode or a long edge binding double-face mode designated to a print job by a PC/WS and a designation state of the recording sheet size independently designated to each page of the print job, and it is then controlled based on the judged result that double-face image formation to the recording sheet of either of the designated sizes is performed based on the other double-face mode than the double-face mode actually designated to the print job.

Sheet binding system for an image forming apparatus

A printing apparatus including print sheet feeding unit for feeding a print sheet, receiving unit for receiving image data and an identification of the image data from a personal computer, printing unit for printing an image on the print sheet fed by the print sheet feeding unit in accordance with the image data received by the receiving unit, insert sheet feeding unit for feeding a insert sheet, operation panel for inputting an identification of the insert sheet by a user, control unit for control the insert sheet feeding unit to feed the insert sheet in accordance with the identification of the image data corresponding to the identification of the insert sheet.

Image forming apparatus having sheet feeding unit for insert sheets with a job data and insert sheet identification control feature

In an image retrieval apparatus, a desired image is recorded on a storage medium so as to correspond to an index image, and a recorded image is retrieved using an index image selected by the user. When recording an image on a storage medium or when retrieving an image from a storage medium, an index image can be assigned using a mark sheet on which a plurality of index images are printed. The image retrieval apparatus prints a mark sheet having a format corresponding to the number and the size of index images input by the user.

Image retrieval apparatus capable of printing a mark sheet for retrieval

A camera has an image stabilizing function which is provided with vibration correcting means for driving an imaging system in at least two non-parallel directions and correcting the vibration of an image, and control means for selecting one of the directions in which the imaging system is driven by the vibration correcting means and controlling the vibration correcting means so that only the action of the vibration correcting means in that direction is singly stopped or that the imaging system is driven at a desired speed only in that direction.
