Classification: CPC G | IPC G

Claim 0:
1. An information processing device comprising:
an information acquisition unit configured to acquire at least one of 1) attribute information of image data to be image processed and 2) setting information related to an image conversion process for converting the image data into a raster image used for printing;
a prediction unit configured to predict, based on a model that accepts input of at least one of the attribute information and the setting information to output a period of time required for the image conversion process, a period of time required for the image conversion process on the image data, the prediction based on information acquired by the information acquisition unit; and
a processing unit configured to identify, based on the period of time required for the image conversion process, a change in the attribute information or the setting information to speed up the image conversion process on the image data and to make a proposal of the identified change, wherein
the attribute information indicates at least one of a number of objects whose spot color is set, presence or absence of the objects whose spot color is set, a number of objects whose overprint is set, and presence or absence of the objects whose overprint is set, and
when the identified change causes a contradiction with a predetermined setting of the image data, the processing unit does not apply the identified change.
