Patent ID: 8488171

Claim:
A rendering system comprising: a determination unit configured to determine whether a processing object is a common object capable of being used a plurality of times and rendering of which is time-consuming when deformation thereof is performed; a generation unit configured not to generate, if the determination unit determines that the processing object is not a common object capable of being used a plurality of times and rendering of which is time-consuming when deformation thereof is performed, a deformed new object, and configured to generate, if the determination unit determines that the processing object is a common object capable of being used a plurality of times and rendering of which is time-consuming when deformation thereof is performed, a deformed new object; a reference information generation unit configured to generate, after the generation unit generates a deformed new object, reference information indicating a number of times a common object is referred to from each page; and a plurality of rendering server computers, wherein the reference information is used when distributed processing of object rendering is performed by the plurality of rendering server computers.
