Abstract
Official abstract text for this publication.
A data processing apparatus includes a display portion, a control portion including a display control portion for causing the display portion to display a preview image of output target data, a touch sensor for receiving, on the display portion, a user operation for performing output setting for the output target data concerning the preview image, an output portion for outputting the output target data based on the output setting, and a control portion for, in a state where the display control portion arranges objects in page unit sequentially to be displayed as the preview image, when the touch sensor receives a predetermined pinch operation for the objects, performing page setting concerning the objects to be operated.
First claim
Opening claim text (preview).
The invention claimed is: 1. A data processing apparatus comprising a display portion, a touch sensor for receiving, on the display portion, a user operation for performing output setting for output target data, and an output portion for outputting the output target data based on the output setting, wherein the data processing apparatus further comprising a control portion for, when the touch sensor receives a predetermined pinch operation for objects in page unit, performing page setting concerning the objects to be operated, the control portion performs the page setting with keeping a page layout of each of the objects to be operated, and when the touch sensor receives an operation for pinching in two objects which are set to be stored as separate files and are selected from among the objects as the predetermined pinch operation, the control portion changes to setting for combining the separate files into one file. 2. The data processing apparatus as defined in claim 1 when the touch sensor receives an operation for pinching out among the objects which are set to be stored as one file as the predetermined pinch operation, the control portion changes to setting for dividing the one file into two files. 3. The data processing apparatus as defined in claim 1 , wherein when the touch sensor receives an operation for pinching out among the objects which are set to be stored as one file as the predetermined pinch operation, the control portion changes to setting for dividing the objects into two files at a border of pages. 4. The data processing apparatus as defined in claim 1 , wherein the data processing apparatus comprising a display control portion for displaying a preview image of the output target data on the display portion, and the control portion performs the page setting concerning the objects to be operated, in a state where the display control portion arranges the objects in page unit sequentially to be displayed as the preview image, when the touch sensor receives the predetermined pinch operation for the objects. 5. The data processing apparatus as defined in claim 2 , wherein the data processing apparatus comprising a display control portion for displaying a preview image of the output target data on the display portion, and the control portion performs the page setting concerning the objects to be operated, in a state where the display control portion arranges the objects in page unit sequentially to be displayed as the preview image, when the touch sensor receives the predetermined pinch operation for the objects. 6. The data processing apparatus as defined in claim 3 , wherein the data processing apparatus comprising a display control portion for displaying a preview image of the output target data on the display portion, and the control portion performs the page setting concerning the objects to be operated, in a state where the display control portion arranges the objects in page unit sequentially to be displayed as the preview image, when the touch sensor receives the predetermined pinch operation for the objects. 7. The data processing apparatus as defined in claim 2 , wherein when the touch sensor receives an operation for pinching out among the objects which are set to be stored as one file as the predetermined pinch operation, the control portion changes to setting for dividing the objects into two files at a border of pages. 8. The data processing apparatus as defined in claim 7 , wherein the data processing apparatus comprising a display control portion for displaying a preview image of the output target data on the display portion, and the control portion performs the page setting concerning the objects to be operated, in a state where the display control portion arranges the objects in page unit sequentially to be displayed as the preview image, when the touch sensor receives the predetermined pinch operation for the objects.
