  • Publication number: 20110249282
    Abstract: An image processing apparatus includes a system control unit, and a display control unit. The system control unit judges whether a setting item that is newly selected on a preview image is mutually exclusive with a setting item that has already been selected on the preview image. The display control unit displays, when the setting items are mutually exclusive with each other, an area corresponding to the setting item newly selected differently from other areas. The display control unit also displays, when the area is selected, why the setting item newly selected cannot be set.

  • Patent number: 7809300
    Abstract: Sample image data are stored beforehand in a storage unit. A first generation unit generates temporary finishing information by making setting processing on the sample image data based on setting information, and a second generation unit generates input screen information including setting processing items to accept various setting inputs to the temporary finishing information. A display unit displays an input screen based on the temporary finishing information and the input screen information, and a setting output unit outputs setting information received via the input screen to the first generation unit. Finally, a copying processing unit executes copying processing with respect to the real image data based on the temporary finishing information.

  • Publication number: 20080278770
    Abstract: Upon receipt of image data of a set of originals in different formats, image analysis information for the image data is generated based on features extracted from the image data. Based on the image analysis information, the formats of the image data is adjusted to a uniform output format. A preview image is created from the image data in the uniform output format. Depending on contents of the preview image, the image data in the uniform output format are output.
