Patent ID: 7869066

Claim:
A device for creating print data utilized by a printer, the print data creating device comprising: a storage configured to store information related to a combination of a position of a pixel and a sub-position of the pixel which is different from the position of the pixel, wherein a distance between a first position on a print medium corresponding to the position of the pixel and a position of a dot formed on the print medium when the printer tries to form the dot at a second position on the print medium corresponding to the sub-position of the pixel is shorter than a distance between the first position on the print medium and a position of a dot formed on the print medium when the printer tries to form the dot at the first position on the print medium; and a processor including instructions that when executed operate as: a choosing device configured to choose a target pixel included in bit-mapped data, the target pixel being a pixel to which a corresponding dot is to be formed by the printer, the bit-mapped data including a plurality of pixels, each pixel including color information, and the choosing device chooses the target pixel based on the color information included in the target pixel; and a converting device configured to convert a position of the target pixel into a sub-position of the target pixel based on the information stored in the storage so as to create the print data which instructs the printer to try to form a dot at a position on the print medium corresponding to the sub-position of the target pixel.
