Abstract
A non-transitory computer-readable recording medium stores a data conversion program that converts pre-conversion type-format data for a first model of an image forming apparatus into post-conversion type-format data for a second model of the image forming apparatus. The data conversion program causes a computer to function as: i) a common-format conversion unit configured to convert the pre-conversion type-format data into common-format data of format independent of the model based on pre-conversion-data conversion rule information that indicates a rule for converting between the pre-conversion type-format data and the common-format data; and ii) a type-format conversion unit configured to convert the common-format data generated by the common-format conversion unit into the post-conversion type-format data based on post-conversion-data conversion rule information that indicates a rule for converting between the post-conversion type-format data and the common format data.
