Abstract:
1. A print data generating apparatus comprising: a designator, operable to designate image data indicative of an image; a setting provider, operable to provide a print size condition determining a print size of the image and a first image quality condition determining a first print image quality of the image; a first generator, operable to generate print data indicative of a printed image which is obtained by subjecting the image data to processing corresponding to 1) scaling of the image based on the print size condition, and 2) execution of image processing including a plurality of processes on the image based on the first image quality condition; a specifier, operable to specify at least one part of the image; and a second generator, operable to generate trial print data indicative of at least one trial printed image which is obtained by subjecting the image data to processing corresponding to 1) trimming of the part of the image, 2) scaling of the image at the same scale factor with the first generator, and 3) execution of image processing including a plurality of processes on the image based on the first image quality condition, wherein in the first generator, the scaling of the image based on the print size condition, and the execution of the image processing including the plurality of processes on the image based on the first image quality condition are executed in a predetermined order, and wherein an order that the scaling and the execution of the image processing including the plurality of processes are executed by the second generator is the same as the predetermined order.
