Abstract
The present invention relates to an image processing apparatus and an image output apparatus that effects an image output operation by recording on a cloth recording medium. The image processing apparatus supplies first image data as original image data to the image output apparatus, and supplies second image data, different from the first image data, to be used for processing the cloth recording medium after the image output operation. The second image data can include a pattern for cutting or sewing the cloth. The apparatus further designates information associated with the second image data, so as to form the second image data on the cloth recording medium on which the first image data is recorded. The output of the first and second data is controlled in accordance with the designated information.
