A printing device enables a laid-out and drawn image to be printed without any subsequent rotation. In the presence of an orientation change command, the printing device receives a layout command and determines a layout of each object in each page on the medium with conversion of coordinates at a preset position of the object. In the presence of the orientation change command, the printing device receives a print command, fetches an object according to the stored layout in each page, and draws and prints the fetched object in response to the orientation change command. No subsequent orientation change of drawing data, which has been laid out and drawn in the specified page orientation, is required to generate converted drawing data corresponding to the specified medium orientation.
