Abstract

An information processing apparatus includes: an acquisition unit that acquires information from an external apparatus that stores data; and a switching unit that, for each item of the data, switches between a first mode in which the acquisition unit acquires attribute information of the data from the external apparatus, and a second mode in which the acquisition unit acquires, from the external apparatus, information for displaying an image that indicates a feature of the data.

Claims (31)

1. An information processing apparatus comprising:

a processor that is configured to:

acquire information from an external apparatus that stores data; and

for each item of the data, switch between a first mode in which attribute information of the data is acquired from the external apparatus, and a second mode in which, from the external apparatus, information for displaying an image is acquired that indicates a feature of the data,

wherein the information for displaying the image that indicates the feature of the data includes the image data indicating the layout and character information extracted from the image using a character recognition process on the image.

2. The information processing apparatus according to claim 1 ,

wherein the attribute information includes a character string expressing an attribute of the data.

3. The information processing apparatus according to claim 1 ,

wherein the information for displaying the image that indicates the feature of the data is image data that is representative of a data group to which the data belongs.

4. The information processing apparatus according to claim 2 ,

wherein the information for displaying the image that indicates the feature of the data is image data that is representative of a data group to which the data belongs.

5. The information processing apparatus according to claim 1 ,

wherein the processor switches between the first mode and the second mode for each item of the data based on a user instruction.

6. The information processing apparatus according to claim 2 ,

wherein the processor switches between the first mode and the second mode for each item of the data based on a user instruction.

7. The information processing apparatus according to claim 3 ,

wherein the processor switches between the first mode and the second mode for each item of the data based on a user instruction.

8. The information processing apparatus according to claim 4 ,

wherein the processor switches between the first mode and the second mode for each item of the data based on a user instruction.

9. The information processing apparatus according to claim 1 ,

wherein the processor switches between the first mode and the second mode for each item of the data based on a resolution of the data, a volume of the data, or a type of the data.

10. The information processing apparatus according to claim 1 ,

wherein the processor switches between the first mode and the second mode based on a data volume of all data to be acquired.

11. An information processing apparatus comprising:

a display controller that causes a display to display information; and

a processor that, for each item of data, switches between a first mode in which the display controller causes the display to display attribute information of the data, and a second mode in which the display controller causes the display to display an image indicating a feature of the data,

wherein information for displaying the image that indicates the feature of the data includes the image data indicating the layout and character information extracted from the image using a character recognition process on the image.

12. A non-transitory computer readable medium storing a program causing a computer to execute a process for processing information, the process comprising:

acquiring information from an external apparatus that stores data; and

for each item of the data, switching between a first mode in which attribute information of the data is acquired from the external apparatus, and a second mode in which, from the external apparatus, information for displaying an image is acquired that indicates a feature of the data,

wherein the information for displaying the image that indicates the feature of the data includes the image data indicating the layout and character information extracted from the image using a character recognition process on the image.
