PRINT CONTROL APPARATUS, PRINT CONTROL METHOD, AND MEMORY MEDIUM

A print controller includes a band memory which stores data to be output on a predetermined basis from a printer engine, and a decompressor which decompresses compressed font data to bit map font data. Also included is a discrimination which discriminates whether or not the decompressed bit map font data is developed across a plurality of bands which are set in the band memory. Lastly included is a cache memory which caches the decompressed bit map font data in the case where the discrimination discriminates that the decompressed bit map font data is developed across the plurality of bands.
