Abstract

See full text

A print data dividing apparatus includes a dividing unit configured to divide three-dimensional (3D) image data, having image information and distance information, into a plurality of areas, a determining unit configured to determine a kind of a shape of a joint surface of a target area, among the plurality of areas, on the basis of a position of the target area and a thickness of the target area, such that the shape has a concave/convex portion, and the joint surface is fitted to another joint surface of another area, of the plurality of areas, that is adjacent to the target area, and a generating unit configured to generate 3D shape data for division printing of the target area in which a joint portion, corresponding to the determined kind of joint surface has been provided for the joint surface.
