Image processing method and image processing computer program
Information indicating an area of an image and information indicating attributes of the image have been stored in an IC chip attached to an original paper. When a copying apparatus performs a character recognition process operation with respect to an image displayed on the original paper, the copying apparatus reads the information related to the area of the image and the information related to the attribute of this area from the IC chip attached to this original paper. Then the copying apparatus separates an area where a character is displayed therefrom. The copying apparatus executes the character recognition process operation with respect to the image of the separated area.
1. A method comprising using a computer to perform the steps of:
reading area data and attribute data from a non-contact memory attached to an original document, the area data indicating an area of an image display member in which at least one sort of image is displayed, and the attribute data indicating attributes of the at least one sort of image;
supplying the area data and the attribute data to an external of the image display member;
reading the displayed image;
separating the at least one sort of image from the read displayed image on the basis of the supplied area data; and
performing an image processing with respect to the separated at least one sort of image in response to the attributes of the at least one sort of image on the basis of the supplied attribute data.
2. A non-transitory computer readable storage medium having stored therein a computer program for causing a computer of an image process apparatus to execute a process, comprising:
reading area data and attribute data from a non-contact memory attached to an original document, the area data indicating an area of an image display member in which at least one sort of image is displayed, and the attribute data indicating attributes of the at least one sort of image;
supplying the area data and the attribute data to an external of the image display member;
reading an image displayed on the image display member;
separating the at least one sort of image from the read displayed image on the basis of the supplied area data; and
performing an image processing with respect to the separated at least one sort of image in response to the attribute of the at least one sort of image on the basis of the supplied attribute data.
