According to one embodiment, an image reading device includes a scanner and a controller. The scanner can read multiple documents placed together on a document platen and generate image data accordingly. The controller generates individual document image data by cropping a region corresponding to each document on the document platen from the generated image data. When a multi-sided scanning mode or option is selected, the controller associates generated document image data for a front surface of each document with generated document image data for a back surface of the same document to establish a document image data pair for each individual document. When a rotation instruction is received for one piece of document image data in a document image pair, the controller rotates both pieces of document image data in the document image pair together. The rotated document image data pair can then be output together.

Disclosed is a novel system and method to enables users to map a user's intent finishing selections for a finishing job to each subsystem, e.g., device, protocol, ADF, and finisher unit, of an imaging device. The presently claimed invention creates distinct perspectives and a way to map between perspectives. The distinct perspectives include intent orientation, a print protocol, ADF, copy/scan/fax platen, device, and finisher unit. Through use of novel transformation for automating image rotations to dramatically reduce errors with understandable and repeatable correct outcomes. The formal algorithmic and mathematical approaches disclosed in the present invention makes it easier to describe subsystems of an imaging device. The software implementation using this novel approach eliminates the need for conditional logic based programming customized for each imaging device and its various subsystems.

An image processing apparatus includes a display device configured to display information, a reading device configured to read a document, and one or more controllers configured to function as a unit configured to input an image read by the reading device to a trained model trained based on an image that does not contain text and orientation information about the image that does not contain text, and a unit configured to display information about the image read by the reading device on the display device based on at least an output result from the trained model.

A control portion performs a predetermined detection process on a first image from a first reading portion and a second image from a second reading portion. When the detection process on the each image is successful, the control portion performs, based on a value of an image processing variable specified from a detection result, predetermined image processing on the each image, When the detection process on the image of one side fails, a value of an image processing variable for the image of one side is specified based on a value of an image processing variable specified from the detection result for the image of the other side for which detection is successful. Based on the specified value of the image processing variable, image processing is performed on the image of one side.

An image processing device comprising a processor configured to: determine presence or absence of a face image for each of a plurality of pieces of image data read from at least one image presenting medium, and decide a relationship for the plurality of pieces of image data, based on a result of the determination. The relationship is a front and back of the image presenting medium or a page order, and the processor is further configured to: decides that image data including a face image is on a front side of the image presenting medium or on a page before image data not including a face image.

An image outputting device includes a scanning module, a storage module, an identification module, a calibration module and a printing module. The scanning module generates an image by scanning an object. The storage module stores the image. The identification module identifies a layout orientation and a text orientation of the image. The calibration module calibrates the layout orientation and the text orientation of the image according to a relation of an identification result of the identification module and a layout orientation of the printing medium. When the printing module prints the calibrated image on a printing surface of the printing medium and outputs the printing medium with the printing surface facing downwardly, the layout orientation of the printed image matches with the layout orientation of the printing medium, and the text orientation of the printed image is opposite to an medium outputting direction or arranged from proximal to distal.

An image scanning device has a platen, an openable cover, a cover sensor, a scanning unit, a condition setting unit enabling a user to set a first condition, and a controller. The controller is configured to detect an opening state of the cover based on a detection signal output by the cover sensor and obtain the image data representing a partial image which is an image of a first end portion of a scannable area of the scanning unit. When the cover is in the closed state, the controller applies an image processing based on the first condition set through the condition setting unit, and when the cover is in the opened state, the controller applies the image processing based on a second condition which is a particular condition set in advance and different from the first condition.

A method of controlling an information processing apparatus includes displaying an edit screen including an obtained image and a print range frame based on obtained print setting information, accepting an edit operation of arrangement of the image in the edit screen, generating image data based on an edited image, and transmitting the generated image data and the print setting information to the image forming apparatus as a print job. Where the image has been edited such that there is a region where the image is not arranged in the print range frame, combining processing in which a predetermined image is added in the region is performed and whereby image data including the image and predetermined image is generated, and where the image has been edited such that there is no region where the image is not arranged in the print range frame, the combining processing is not performed.

An image forming apparatus is configured to arrange a plurality of pages, including a first page and a second page adjacent to the first page, in print data, without providing a margin between adjacent pages in the plurality of pages. The image forming apparatus includes a changer configured to change at least one of a position or an angle of the second page, such that a color of a first edge portion region of the first page and a color of a second edge portion region, adjacent to the first edge portion region, of the second page, satisfy a predetermined condition.

In a case where a setting that is a target of a first control is set in a print setting, the first control is performed, whereas in a case where the setting that is the target of the first control is not set in the print setting, the first control is not performed. The first control is performed to change an orientation of a drawing data such that the drawing data is printed on a sheet in an orientation with a bottom side and a top side of the drawing data respectively corresponding to a downstream side and an upstream side of the sheet in a conveyance direction of conveying the sheet to a printing apparatus that performs print processing to print the drawing data.
