Abstract: A file information generation section generates a draw command for causing a computer to carry out a process for switching, in accordance with an instruction from a user, between a first display state in which, in a case where the user specifies a part of an original text, the original text and translation information corresponding to the part of the original text, which part is specified by the user, are displayed; and a second display state in which the original text and the translation information corresponding to the original text are displayed at all times. This allows a browsing user to generate an image file in which a display mode of a translated word can be easily switched.

Abstract: An object area containing a text or a graphic is extracted from a document image containing the text or the graphic. Then, on the basis of the extracted object area and stored size information, a cropping area is determined that surrounds the object area with given margins. Further, setting of margins is received. Then, on the basis of the object area and the received setting of the margins, the cropping area is determined. Then, the cropping area determined on the basis of the object area and the size information or alternatively the cropping area determined on the basis of the object area and the setting of the margins is cropped from the document image.
