Abstract: An information processing apparatus comprises a storage to store a plurality of templates including a region in which data can be placed. The apparatus specifies data to be placed in the plurality of templates; and outputs an image in which the data is placed in a template, from among the plurality of templates, and which is based on data to be placed in the region and including text inputted by a user.

Abstract: A method for image processing in which an image of a bound document such as a book placed face-down on a document positioning plate is read and processed is provided. The method includes reading the bound document through the document positioning plate, displaying the read image, the read image having at least one of a shadow portion of a bound portion and a shadow portion of an edge portion, inputting information about a direction attribute of a rectangular area of the shadow portion in the displayed image, determining the direction attribute based on the input information, and correcting a density of the rectangular area based on the determined direction attribute.

Abstract: In an image scanning system which can scan an image in a plurality of scanning modes, and has a memory for storing a correction data file which has correction data for each of the plurality of scan modes, correction data corresponding to a scan mode of a given image scan operation is read out from the memory upon scanning an image, and an image scan is executed using the readout correction data. If correction data corresponding to the scan mode of that image scan operation is not stored in the memory, correction data corresponding to the scan mode is generated, and is stored in the memory.

Abstract: An image information processing apparatus of this invention receives an information signal, converts the input information signal into digital data, temporarily stores the converted digital data, parallel/serial-converts the temporarily stored digital data, and controls the operation of the parallel/serial processing in accordance with the contents of information indicated by the temporarily stored digital data when the parallel/serial-converted digital data is converted into an analog signal and the analog signal is transmitted onto the transmission path, thereby allowing easy transmission of image information and a control code using a smaller number of transmission path and realizing a cost reduction.
