  • Patent number: 10097723
    Abstract: The book page turning operation of an automatic page turning apparatus is controlled by a tablet. Every time the automatic page turning apparatus completes a page turning operation, the tablet photographs the page and stores its image. During this processing, the tablet stops the series of page turning operations of the automatic page turning apparatus every time a sequential page-turning count m reaches a preset interruption page count M. Then, the tablet restarts the series of page turning operations in response to a photographing restart instruction from the user. As a result of this configuration, the user is freed from an operation of stopping a page turning operation during image photographing.

  • Publication number: 20170046019
    Abstract: A file management apparatus causes a plurality of book files serving as management targets to be displayed on an editing operation screen in a list form and, each time a file is selected by a user as a processing target, causes a selection order rank set by the user to be individually displayed at a specific position on the editing operation screen corresponding to the file. Then, by combining the plurality of book files selected by the user as processing targets in accordance with the selection order ranks set by the user, the file management apparatus generates a new book file.
