  • Patent number: 11611670
    Abstract: A non-transitory computer-readable medium stores computer-readable instructions configured to, when executed by a processor of an information processing device, cause the information processing device to obtain image data of an image processing screen image regarding an image processing function from the image processing device and control the display to display the image processing screen image, when transmitting an image data request to the image processing device while an image processing input screen is displayed on the display, and obtain image data of a non-image processing screen image regarding a non-image processing function from the image processing device and control the display to display the non-image processing screen image, when transmitting an image data request to the image processing device while a non-image processing input screen is displayed on the display.

  • Patent number: 11483449
    Abstract: A non-transitory computer-readable medium stores computer-readable instructions executable by a processor of an information processing device that includes a user interface and a display. The instructions are configured to, when executed by the processor, cause the information processing device to accept, via the user interface, an operation to specify a rearrangement condition for a plurality of pieces of image data to be obtained, obtain image data of a single sheet, determine an arrangement order for arranging first image data and second image data in accordance with the rearrangement condition specified by the accepted operation, the first image data being image data of one or more sheets obtained earlier than the second image data, the second image data being the image data of the single sheet, and display, on the display, images contained in the first image data and the second image data, to be arranged in the determined arrangement order.

  • Patent number: 4949565
    Abstract: A straightening method particularly for an elongated metal member having a long longitudinally linear length, is carried out by an automatic straightening apparatus by the manner of preliminarily setting a plurality of points at which distortion are to be straightened. When it is required to straighten an amount of distortion to be straightened at a certain point, the amount is adjusted in consideration of the amounts of strains to be straightened at the other points by utilizing the method of least squares so that the elongated metal member has substantially a linearly straight shape. According to this manner, the amounts of the respective points of the long member to be straightened are adjusted. The distortion of the elongated metal member can thus be substantially straightened to a highly improved accuracy.
