Abstract: A schedule coordination system includes a multifunction peripheral and an information processing apparatus. The multifunction peripheral includes a first communication I/F, a storage device in which schedule information indicating a task and a date and time of execution is stored, and a first control device that acts as a task scheduler that decides whether a current date and time has reached a predetermined date and time of startup, on a basis of the schedule information, and performs, upon deciding that the current date and time has reached the date and time of startup, a predetermined process necessary for executing the task indicated by the schedule information, and a controller that executes the task. The information processing apparatus includes a second communication I/F and a second control device that acts as an executor that executes an operation according to a command transmitted from the task scheduler.

Abstract: An information processing apparatus includes an image reading device, and a control device that acts as a text converter, a divider, an extractor, and a text processor. The text converter converts a source image acquired by the image reading device from the source document, into text data. The divider divides the text data converted by the text converter into a plurality of text groups, using a predetermined criterion. The extractor extracts, from the plurality of text groups divided by the divider, a key text group containing a specific word identified by a predetermined rule, among words contained in the text data constituting the plurality of text groups. The text processor creates processed text data by placing the key text group at a head position, and placing remaining text groups other than the key text group in the plurality of text groups, at a position subsequent to the key text group.
