Abstract

To provide a program for editing a text to be printed, with a technique for facilitating selection of a font.SOLUTION: An information processing apparatus 1 with a label creation application 42 embedded therein is configured to display a list of available fonts on a user IF 20 while a text object 212 set on an editing screen 200 is selected. The fonts constituting the list of fonts include equipped fonts and downloaded fonts. The list of fonts displays the fonts based on environment information indicating at least one of language and region. When a font is selected from the list of fonts, the information processing apparatus 1 draws the text object 212 set on the editing screen 200, using the selected font. The information processing apparatus 1 downloads, in the absence of a selected downloaded font, the selected font from a server 4 for drawing.SELECTED DRAWING: Figure 2
