Abstract: An information processing apparatus includes circuitry configured to acquire first form definition information defining a positional relationship between one or more items and a respective value of the one or more items stored in a memory, recognize and extract a specific item set with a specific character string and a specific value of the specific item from data of a form image based on the first form definition information as a recognition result, and display, on a display, the recognition result and an input reception section used for receiving an input of second form definition information.

Abstract: An information processing apparatus includes processing circuitry. The circuitry acquires first ledger sheet definition information and second ledger sheet definition information from a memory. The first ledger sheet definition information defines relative positions of an item and a value of the item in a ledger sheet. The second ledger sheet definition information defines relative positions of an item and a value of the item in a ledger sheet unique to a user. Based on at least one of the first ledger sheet definition information and the second ledger sheet definition information, the circuitry extracts an item and a value of the item from reading result information that associates a character string read from a ledger sheet image with information representing a position of the character string, and the circuitry outputs the extracted item and value of the item as a recognition result.

Abstract: An information processing apparatus includes processing circuitry that acquires an electronic file containing first text data, and determines, based on the acquired electronic file, whether to use the first text data or second text data to perform a process. The second text data is generated through character recognition performed on an image contained in the acquired electronic file.
