A verification apparatus includes reads an image on a sheet conveyed using a plurality of imaging units configured to respectively perform reading in read regions different from each other in a predetermined direction orthogonal to a conveyance direction of the sheet, the read regions respectively corresponding to adjacent imaging units partially overlapping with each other. The apparatus performs processing of changing a size, in the predetermined direction, of a larger one of a read image obtained by reading the image on the sheet by each of the plurality of imaging units, and a corresponding reference image, in accordance with a size of a smaller one, and performs verification by comparing the read image corresponding to each of the plurality of imaging units with the corresponding reference image, after the processing has been completed.

An image forming system includes an image forming unit, a pressure-bonding processing unit, a display portion, and a control unit capable of controlling the image forming unit by acquiring image data for forming a toner image on a recording medium in an operation in an image forming mode. The control portion controls the display portion to issue a warning in a case that the toner image to be formed on an inner surface of the recording medium to be folded protrudes outside a film region, the film region being a region of the inner surface to which a thermosensitive adhesive film is to be supplied.

An image forming apparatus includes a printer configured to print image data on a printing medium, a storage, and a controller configured to compare reference image data with an image printed on the printing medium, wherein the controller is configured to execute layout processing of the image data on the printing medium based on a size of the printing medium and an image size of the image data, calculate offset information in the layout processing of the image data on the printing medium, and store the image data of which the layout processing is executed and the offset information in the storage.

At least one of the first notification and the second notification is provided via a display device, based on a fact that, by the editing of an object, an object with a transmission property is overlapped on the front surface of an object to be printed by use of a spot color ink, the first notification being provided for warning that the object with the transmission property is in a state of being overlapped on the front surface of the object to be printed by use of the spot color ink, the second notification being provided for asking whether or not a predetermined overlapping state in which the object with the transmission property is overlapped on the front surface of the object to be printed by use of the spot color ink is to be maintained.

Provided are an image enlargement/reduction rate calculation apparatus, an image enlargement/reduction rate calculation method, and an image enlargement/reduction rate calculation program which are capable of outputting an image with a small blurriness degree. A blurriness value is calculated for each image area, and the smallest blurriness value is decided (step S24). Resolution of a printer that prints the image is read (step S25). An enlargement/reduction rate in which the blurriness value is equal to or smaller than a second threshold value is calculated based on the decided blurriness value (step S26).

A server of a printing system includes a print instruction acquisition unit configured to acquire a print instruction indicated by a voice that is a print instruction of a content included in a content group from a voice intermediation device, a selection unit configured to select a content to be printed from the content group according to the print instruction, and a transmitter configured to transmit print data for printing the selected content to the printing device. The selection unit totalizes a printing count of each content included in the content group for a plurality of users, and selects the content to be printed from the content group based on the totalized printing count. The selection unit may select the content to be printed from the content group based on an attribute applicable to a user. The printing device receives the print data and performs printing according to the print data.

According to one embodiment, there is provided an image forming device, the image forming device applying information differently for each copy to a sheet on which an image is to be formed. The image forming device includes a controller and an image forming processor. The controller is configured to acquire image information, the image information including an input image to be formed on a sheet and applying information associated with each copy, in response to the input image being formed. The controller is configured to generate a composite image obtained by applying an applying image based on the applying information for each copy to the input image. The image forming processor is configured to form the composite image generated for each copy on the sheet of each copy.

Described herein is a computer implemented method. The method includes selecting a plurality of elements on a design page and, for each selected element, determining a plurality of edge bleed pairs, each edge bleed pair including a particular edge and a particular bleed of the design page. Each edge bleed pair is processed to determine whether the selected element should be resized, the determination being based on the position of the particular edge relative to the particular bleed. If the determination is that the element should be resized, the method involves resizing the selected element so that the element covers a greater portion of the particular bleed than was originally covered by the element.

A social networking system user may request physical prints of digital photographs stored in connection with the user's user profile on the social networking system. The physical prints are generated by a photograph developer, such as a retail store, and retrieved by the user. The user may request the physical prints from an application executing on a user device that allows the user to identify social context information associated with a digital photograph for inclusion on the physical print. The social networking system may notify users connected to the user and/or to the digital image of the physical print generation.

An image forming apparatus includes a sensor configured to detect an original, a nonvolatile storage that includes a semiconductor area, a setting unit configured to execute a setting for dividing the semiconductor area into a plurality of areas, and a controller configured to execute Trim processing on the divided areas in response to passing of a predetermined time period while the image forming apparatus is in a standby state. The controller is configured to stop the Trim processing based on a detection of the original detected by the sensor while the Trim processing is executed.
