1. An apparatus for communicating with an external apparatus through a network, the apparatus comprising:
- an image capture unit configured to capture an image of a subject;
a superimposing unit configured to superimpose a superimposed image upon the captured image, the superimposed image including a character and a background;
a storage unit configured to store capability information in a memory, the capability information being associated with color information, which indicates a color relating to the superimposed image;
a transmission unit configured to transmit the capability information in accordance to requirement for the capability information from the external apparatus;
a reception unit configured to receive color information which is related to the capability information transmitted by the transmit unit;
a determination unit configured to determine whether the color information received by the reception unit includes a color of a background color; and
a setting unit configured to set an outline color of the superimposed character based on the received color information, in case that the determination unit determines the color information includes the color of a background color.
