Abstract: A document transmission apparatus reduces troublesome labor of an operator when transmitting document data, inputted from a scanner or the like, by various transmission methods such as electronic mail, facsimile, remote printing and file transfer. An address book containing a receiver and a plurality of transmission methods for transmitting document data to the receiver is generated. Upon transmission instruction, an appropriate transmission method is selected by the receiver, then document data is converted into data of an appropriate data format, and the converted data is transmitted. Further, a notice of transmission indicating that the document data has been transmitted is transmitted to the receiver of the document data by a method different from the transmission method of the document data. Thus, the document data can be reliably delivered to the receiver.

Abstract: A protective film forming method for forming a protective film of resin on a work surface of a wafer.

Abstract: A laser beam processing machine comprising a chuck table for holding a workpiece and a laser beam application means for applying a laser beam to the workpiece held on the chuck table, the laser beam application means comprising a laser beam oscillation means for oscillating a laser beam and a condenser for converging the laser beam oscillated by the laser beam oscillation means, wherein the condenser comprises a first cylindrical lens unit having a first cylindrical lens, a second cylindrical lens unit having a second cylindrical lens which is positioned such that its converging direction becomes perpendicular to the converging direction of the first cylindrical lens, and an interval adjustment mechanism for adjusting the interval between the first cylindrical lens unit and the second cylindrical lens unit.

Abstract: A laser beam processing machine includes a dust discharger which includes a first cover member mounted to the lower end of the condenser and a first opening for letting a laser beam applied from the condenser pass therethrough in the bottom wall, a second cover member which is arranged to surround the first cover member and has a second opening for allowing a laser beam applied from a condenser pass therethrough and sucking in dust in the bottom wall, an air introduction chamber which is formed between the first cover member and the condenser and communicates with the first opening, a dust collection chamber which is formed between the first cover member and the second cover member and communicates with the second opening, a first air supplier for supplying air to the air introduction chamber, and a swirling flow generator for generating a swirling flow in the dust collection chamber.
