Image-processing device, recording medium, and method
There is provided an image-processing device having a receiving unit that receives first variable print data including a plurality of records and designation information designating a rendering program; an image generation unit that performs the image generation process in which the rendering program is executed with regard to the plurality of records included in the first variable print data to generate output images corresponding to each of the plurality of records, wherein when an error occurs because of a first record of the plurality of records during generation of an output image corresponding to the first record, the image generation unit continues the image generation process by changing a record to be processed from the first record to a record which is to be processed later than the first record; and a variable print data generation unit that generates second variable print data including the first record.
1. An image-processing device, comprising:
a receiving unit that receives first variable print data including a plurality of records and designation information designating a rendering program to be executed in an image generation process with regard to the first variable print data;
an image generation unit that performs the image generation process in which the rendering program is executed with regard to the plurality of records included in the first variable print data to generate output images corresponding to each of the plurality of records, wherein when an error occurs because of a first record of the plurality of records during generation of an output image corresponding to the first record, the image generation unit continues the image generation process by changing a record to be processed from the first record to a record which is to be processed later than the first record; and
a variable print data generation unit that generates second variable print data including the first record and the designation information.
2. The image-processing device according to claim 1 , the image generation unit comprising:
a storage unit that stores one or more generated output images; and
a controller that, if no error occurs, performs control to permit output of an output image stored in the storage unit.
3. The image-processing device according to claim 1 , the image generation unit comprising:
a storage unit that stores generated output images until generation of all output images corresponding to at least one record is completed; and
a controller that, if the error occurs, performs control to disable output of stored output images corresponding to the first record.
4. The image-processing device according to claim 1 , wherein, when an output image corresponding to the first record is also corresponding to a second record, the variable print data generation unit generates the second variable print data including the second record in addition to the first record.
5. The image-processing device according to claim 1 , wherein when the error occurs, the image generation unit changes the record to be processed to a record corresponding to an output image which is to be generated next to the output image corresponding to the first record.
6. The image-processing device according to claim 1 , the image generation unit comprising:
a storage unit that stores one or more output images generated by the image generation unit;
a print controller that performs control to cause a printer to perform a printing process to print a plurality of logical pages on a single sheet using the output images stored in the storage unit; and
a controller that, if an error occurs in the image generation unit in connection with any record to be printed on a first single sheet, controls to disable printing of stored output image to be printed on the first sheet, and controls to cause the image generation unit to continue the image generation process by changing the record to be processed to a record to be printed on a sheet next to the first sheet.
7. A computer-readable medium storing a program causing a computer to execute a process for controlling variable printing, the process comprising:
receiving first variable print data including a plurality of records and designation information designating a rendering program to be executed in an image generation process with regard to the first variable print data;
performing the image generation process in which the rendering program is executed with regard to the plurality of records included in the first variable print data to generate output images corresponding to each of the plurality of records;
when an error occurs because of a first record of the plurality of records during generation of an output image corresponding to the first record, continuing the image generation process by changing a record to be processed from the first record to a record which is to be processed later than the first record; and
generating second variable print data by combining the first record and the designation information.
8. An image-processing method comprising:
receiving first variable print data including a plurality of records and designation information designating a rendering program to be executed in an image generation process with regard to the first variable print data;
performing the image generation process in which the rendering program is executed with regard to the plurality of records included in the first variable print data to generate output images corresponding to each of the plurality of records;
when an error occurs because of a first record of the plurality of records during generation of an output image corresponding to the first record, continuing the image generation process by changing a record to be processed from the first record to a record which is to be processed later than the first record; and
generating second variable print data by combining the first record and the designation information.
