An information processing apparatus is capable of displaying terms each having a character string embedded in an application and terms each having a character string to be added by at least one term module for the application, on a screen of the application. The information processing apparatus includes circuitry. The circuitry determines, during startup of the information processing apparatus, whether at least one of the application and the at least one term module has been updated. The circuitry generates association information to be stored in a memory, based on determination that at least one of the application and the at least one term module has been updated. The circuitry acquires one of term identification information of the application and term identification information of the at least one term module from the memory. The circuitry selects a character string to be displayed, using the term identification information acquired.

Displaying terms having corresponding character strings on a display

An information processing apparatus is provided that includes a memory storing a program, and a processor configured to execute the program to implement processes of accepting an operation with respect to a setting screen that displays an image including a plurality of display components corresponding to a plurality of setting items on a display device, and accepting a setting operation for enlarging or reducing a display size of at least one display component of the plurality of display components and changing display information that is displayed in a display area of the at least one display component according to the display size of the at least one display component.

Information processing apparatus and information processing method

An image processing apparatus is to execute a process selected among multiple processes. The image processing apparatus includes a storage unit to store a list in which each of the processes is associated with a type of the process representing whether the process is to use information about an orientation of a document; an objective process determination unit to determine whether the selected process to be executed is of the type to use the information about the orientation of the document, based on the list stored in the storage unit; and a display control unit to display a confirmation screen on a display unit, for prompting to confirm the orientation of the document after having received an execution command for the process, in a case where the process has been determined as of the type to use the information about the orientation of the document.

Image processing apparatus, information processing apparatus, and medium that selectively provide prompts to confirm orientation

An image forming apparatus includes: a PDL analyzing unit that analyzes print data and obtains a drawing condition; a drawing unit that uses a type of dither selected from types of dither, prepared and associated with drawing conditions, according to the drawing condition analyzed, and generates output image data; an image forming unit; a fixing unit that fixes an image formed on a recording sheet by heating the image to a fixing temperature; a fixing control unit that controls the fixing temperature to a target value; and a database in which each of the types of dither is associated with the target value of fixing temperature for power saving. The fixing control unit obtains from the database the target value of fixing temperature corresponding to the type of dither used in the drawing unit and carries out control to conduct fixing at the target value thus obtained.
