Abstract
A printer includes: an area judging unit which judges whether a character printing area necessary for standard printing of an image corresponding to the character data on the printing material exceeds a definite length printing area; a printing data processing unit which creates corrected image data corresponding to a corrected printing image produced by thinning out the image corresponding the character data in the printing direction to perform compressive conversion process for fitting the character printing area to the definite length printing area when the area judging unit judges that the character printing area exceeds the definite length printing area; and a printing device which prints the corrected printing image on the printing material based on the corrected printing data created by the printing data processing unit.
