A set of computer-readable instructions, when executing by a computer of a server, causes the server to perform: when a font suggestion request is received from an information processing device and a user has been identified: a determination process; and a suggestion process. The determination process includes: extracting one or more related sets of label data related to the user from among a plurality of sets of label data recorded in a label database; and determining one or more languages based on one or more text objects contained in the one or more related sets of label data. The suggestion process includes: extracting one or more recommended sets of font data supporting the one or more languages from among a plurality of sets of font data recorded in a font database; and suggesting the one or more recommended sets of font data to the information processing device.
A controller of a producing data output system acquires a target image. The controller performs style conversion on the target image to generate a converted image of a selected style. The selected style is selected from image styles including first and second styles. The controller outputs producing data for producing a medium based on the converted image. The selected producing type is selected from one or more producing candidates associated with the selected style. The one or more producing candidates are among producing types including first and second producing types. In a case where the selected style is the first style, the one or more producing candidates include the first producing type and do not include the second producing type. In a case where the selected style is the second style, the one or more producing candidates include the first and second producing types.
