Abstract
A template storage unit stores a plurality of templates. A material data receiving unit receives material data. A combining rule storage unit stores a plurality of combining rules that each indicate a combining condition as a combination of attribute information, such as a type of material data and a version number, and a name of a template to be combined with when the combining condition is met. A combining instruction unit judges whether a combining condition of any of the combining rules is met or not and instructs a combining unit to combine the material data with the template when the combining condition is met. The combining unit combines the material data or a combination of the material data with the specified template according to the combining rule.
