Data processing apparatus, recording apparatus and control method of the data processing apparatus

Abstract

A data processing apparatus includes a processing unit that distinguishes a command of a first command system including commands designating attributes of a printing form and a command of a second command system including commands designating attributes that are not defined in the first command system. When a recording instruction including an instruction designating the printing form by a command of the first command system and data arranged in accordance with the printing form designated by the command of the first command system are input, the processing unit arranges the data included in the recording instruction in accordance with a printing form designated by the command of the second command system to generate recording data.

What is claimed is: 
     
         1 . A data processing apparatus comprising:
 a storage unit in which a first template including a first command designating a first printing form is stored;   a processing unit that generates a second template including a second command for designating a second printing form different from the first printing form and stores the generated second template in the storage unit.   
     
     
         2 . The data processing apparatus according to  claim 1 ,
 wherein the second template stored in the storage unit is associated with the first template stored in the storage unit,   in a case where the data processing apparatus receives a recording instruction including an instruction designating the first template and the storage unit stores the second template associated with the first template, the processing unit arranges data included in the recording instruction in accordance with the second template to generate recording data, and   in a case where the data processing apparatus receives the recording instruction including the instruction designating the first template and the storage unit does not store the second template associated with the first template, the processing unit arranges the data included in the recording instruction in accordance with the first template to generate recording data.   
     
     
         3 . The data processing apparatus according to  claim 1 ,
 wherein the second template is generated with the processing unit by adding a third command for designating a recording color.   
     
     
         4 . A data processing apparatus control method comprising:
 storing a first template including a first command designating a first printing form in a storage;   generating a second template including a second command for designating a second printing form different from the first printing form; and   stores the generated second template in the storage.   
     
     
         5 . The method according to  claim 4 ,
 wherein the second template stored in the storage is associated with the first template stored in the storage,   the method further comprising:   in a case where the data processing apparatus receives a recording instruction including an instruction designating the first template and the storage unit stores the second template associated with the first template, arranging data included in the recording instruction in accordance with the second template to generate recording data; and   in a case where the data processing apparatus receives the recording instruction including the instruction designating the first template and the storage unit does not store the second template associated with the first template, arranging the data included in the recording instruction in accordance with the first template to generate recording data.   
     
     
         6 . The control method according to  claim 4 ,
 Wherein, in the generating step of the second template, a third command for designating a recording color is added.   
     
     
         7 . A computer-readable medium storing a program for causing a computer to execute a process for control data processing apparatus, the process comprising:
 storing a first template including a first command designating a first printing form in a storage;   generating a second template including a second command for designating a second printing form different from the first printing form; and   stores the generated second template in the storage.   
     
     
         8 . The computer readable medium according to  claim 7 ,
 wherein the second template stored in the storage is associated with the first template stored in the storage,   the process further comprising:   in a case where the data processing apparatus receives a recording instruction including an instruction designating the first template and the storage unit stores the second template associated with the first template, arranging data included in the recording instruction in accordance with the second template to generate recording data; and   in a case where the data processing apparatus receives the recording instruction including the instruction designating the first template and the storage unit does not store the second template associated with the first template, arranging the data included in the recording instruction in accordance with the first template to generate recording data.   
     
     
         9 . The computer readable medium according to  claim 7 ,
 Wherein, in the generating step of the second template, a third command for designating a recording color is added.
