  • Patent number: 10701235
    Abstract: An image forming apparatus includes a document reading unit configured to collectively read a plurality of source documents placed on a document table, a reference document image selector that selects, as a reference document image, an individual image representing the source document located closest to a position corresponding to a far left corner of the document table, a first relative position detector that detects a relative position between the reference document image and each of the individual images other than the reference document image, and a first pair identifier that identifies, as an image pair representing front and back faces of the same source document, a pair of individual images, the respective relative positions of which, from the reference document image in one of the both image data and from the reference document image in the other one of the both image data, are closest to each other.

  • Patent number: 10681244
    Abstract: An image forming apparatus includes an image reader unit and a control unit. The image reader unit generates read data. The control unit generates output data of image data cropped from the read data. When cropping a plurality of image data, the control unit sets one side of the read data to a first reference side and sets another side perpendicular to the first reference side to a second reference side, and for each of the plurality of image data, the control unit detects a first distance between the first reference side and the image data in a direction parallel to the second reference side, and a second distance between the second reference side and the image data in a direction parallel to the first reference side, and sets an output order of the plurality of image data based on the first distances and the second distances.

  • Publication number: 20200028986
    Abstract: An image reading device has an image reading portion, a control portion, and an operation portion. The image reading portion reads, by irradiating with light, a predetermined reading region including a region where a document is present. The control portion processes the image data read by the image reading portion. On the operation portion, instructions are input to the control portion. The control portion can operate in a consolidation mode where the read image data is consolidated to generate processed image data when the image reading portion reads image data of a previously set number of to-be-consolidated sheets. In the consolidation mode, when the number of sheets of read image data is smaller than the previously set number of to-be-consolidated sheets, on input of an instruction on the operation portion, the processed image data is generated based on the image data read before the instruction input.
