A non-transitory computer-readable storage medium stores a program for causing a computer in an information processing apparatus to perform a process of processing print data, which includes plural pages, by a general-purpose operating system and transmitting the processed print data to a printing apparatus. The process includes a reception step of receiving serially the plural pages included in the print data; a generation step of generating a file including a predetermined number of pages and information indicating an order of files corresponding to an order of pages in the print data each time the predetermined number of pages are received at the reception step, wherein the generation step includes an insertion step of inserting into a final page of the print data a statement indicating the final page when the final page is received; and an output step of outputting the file to the general-purpose operating system.

Information processing method and program thereof for converting print data into a data format suitable for a general purpose operating system

A antenna device, which includes a first dielectric substrate having a patch conductor disposed thereon; a second dielectric substrate having a grounding conductor disposed on a confronting substrate surface confronting the patch conductor; and a conductor for electromagnetic coupling, extending from the confronting substrate surface of the second dielectric substrate toward the first dielectric substrate, is provided. The antenna device is small and is capable of being mounted to a windowpane for a vehicle since the conductor for electromagnetic coupling is not connected to the grounding conductor with respect to a direct current and since the conductor for electromagnetic coupling and the patch conductor are electromagnetically coupled each other.

Antenna device

A laminated glass structure is provided containing at least one glass sheet, a plastic layer provided at the bonding surface of the glass sheet, and a functioning layer having single-or multi-layered films between the bonding surfaces of the glass sheet and the plastic layer, with the functioning layer having a controlling layer in contact with the plastic layer, which contains as the major component an oxide including Cr and at least one of Ti, Zn, Sn, Ni, Zr, Al, Si, Mg and Fe, and wherein the controlling layer has an atomic ratio of Cr to atoms other than oxygen of 60% or lower, and the film thickness of the controlling layer is 10 .ANG. to 500 .ANG..

Laminated glass structure

A laminated glass structure comprises two glass sheets, a plastic layer arranged at the bonding surface of one of the glass sheets, and a functioning layer consisting of single- or multi-layered films provided on the bonding surface of the glass sheet to the plastic layer, wherein the functioning layer has a film having an energy gap of 4 electron volts or higher which is in contact with the plastic layer.

A method of making a curved glass surface with a solar panel formed thereon. A window for an automobile, especially for a sunroof is formed by heating a glass sheet from 500.degree. to 600.degree. C. A transparent electroconductive film is then formed on one side, such as by a CVD method and bending the sheet with the film after heating the temperature from 580.degree. to 650.degree. C.

An electrically heatable windshield comprises two glass plates bonded to each other with an interlayer therebetween and a transparent conductive layer formed at contacting surface between one of the glass plates and the interlayer so that the windshield is heated by supplying a current to the transparent conductive layer through a bus bar for feeding power. A colored layer such as a ceramic color print is formed at the peripheral portion of the surface, in contact with the interlayer, of at least one of the glass plates. The bus bar is formed on the colored layer without expanding. A transparent protective layer is formed so as to cover the edge portion of the colored layer which is near the center of the glass plates, and the transparent conductive layer is formed over the transparent protective layer.

Electrically heatable windshield

A glass substrate for a solar cell, comprising a glass sheet having a curved surface shape and a transparent electroconductive film formed on the concave surface side of said glass sheet.
