In S, a character size and an inter-column size are calculated using a virtual body size in S, and the character size and an inter-character size (inter-column size) are reflected in properties of each text box. In step S, a position and a size of each text box are set, in step S, the character size is set in the property of each text box, and in the following step S, the inter-character size is set in the property so that characters do not overlap in each text box. Thereafter, in S, the text boxes are superimposed so that reference frames of adjacent characters are in contact with each other.
