Abstract

The image data processing apparatus includes a storage unit to store image data having a process setting. The image data processing apparatus includes a selection screen display unit to display the one or more image data stored in the storage unit and to display a selection screen to select whether to use a process content associated with image data selected from the displayed image data if the one segment of image data is used. The image data processing apparatus includes a display control unit to display, on the display device, a preview image reflecting the process content based on the associated process content.

Claims (20)

1. An image data processing apparatus including a display device, the image data processing apparatus comprising:

a storage unit to store one or more image data each having a process setting;

a selection screen display unit to display, on the display device, the one or more image data stored in the storage unit and to display, on the display device, a selection screen to select whether to use a process content associated with one of image data selected from the displayed image data if the one segment of image data is used; and

a display control unit to display, on the display device, a preview image reflecting the process content based on the associated process content.

2. The image data processing apparatus according to claim 1 , wherein the display control unit displays a screen from which a new process setting is performed if the process content associated with the image data is not used.

3. The image data processing apparatus according to claim 1 , wherein the storage unit stores image data one of input from the image data processing apparatus and input via a network.

4. A method for controlling a display of an image associated with an image data processing apparatus including a display device to, the method comprising:

reading one or more image data each including a process setting from a storage unit;

displaying the one or more image data on the display device;

displaying, on the display device, a selection screen to select whether to use a process content associated with one of image data selected from the display image data if the one of image data is used; and

displaying a preview image associated with the process content on the display device if using the process content associated with the image.

5. The method according to claim 4 , wherein the displaying of a preview image includes displaying a screen from which a new process setting is performed on the image data if the process content associated with the image data is not used.

6. The method according to claim 4 , wherein the reading includes reading image data one of input from the image data processing apparatus and input via a network.

7. A non-transitory computer-readable medium including computer-readable program codes embodied in the medium that when executed by a processor causes an image data processing apparatus including a display device to perform steps comprising:

reading one or more image data each including a process setting from a storage unit;

displaying the one or more image data on the display device;

displaying, on the display device, a selection screen to select whether to use a process content associated with one of image data selected from the display image data if the one segment of image data is used; and

displaying a preview image associated with the process content on the display device if using the process content associated with the image.

8. The non-transitory computer-readable medium according to claim 7 , wherein the displaying of a preview image includes displaying a screen from which a new process setting is performed on the image data if the process content associated with the image data is not used.

9. The non-transitory computer-readable medium according to claim 7 , wherein the reading includes reading image data one of input from the image data processing apparatus and input via a network.
