Abstract
Official abstract text for this publication.
An information processing apparatus includes: an image data generation unit that generates image data of a gloss control plane including a type of a surface effect given to at least a region of a recording medium, coordinates to identify the region, and designation to emphasize, among a first region and a second region adjacent to each other, a surface effect of the first region as compared with a surface effect of the second region; a change unit that changes the surface effect of the second region when the designation to emphasis is given to the first region; a print data generation unit that generates print data on the basis of the image data of the gloss control plane in which the surface effect of the second region has been changed by the change unit; and an output unit that outputs the print data.
First claim
Opening claim text (preview).
What is claimed is: 1. An information processing apparatus that generates print data to be printed onto a given recording medium, on the basis of image data of a gloss control plane including a type of a surface effect given to at least a region of the given recording medium and coordinates to identify the region which is given the surface effect, the information processing apparatus comprising: processing circuitry configured to generate the image data of the gloss control plane…
