Abstract

See full text

There is provided a print control apparatus in which, when poster printing is performed using a printer for printing on continuous paper, a user only needs to specify a finish size (or a scaling factor) so as to perform printing processing with appropriate orientation and a minimum number of segments. To achieve this, based on a length of a short side of a finish size specified by the user and a length in a width direction of continuous paper, the number of segments is calculated to divide an enlarged image obtained by enlarging an original. Then, based on the number of segments, the enlarged image is divided in a short-side direction, and a plurality of image portions generated by the division are laid out in a size of an output sheet, whereby print data is generated.
