An information processing apparatus includes a setting reception section and a posture acquisition section. The information processing apparatus outputs a scan setting to an image reading apparatus including a main body having a plurality of postures. The main body reads a document according to the scan setting. The setting reception section is configured to display a setting item included in the scan setting on a display portion and receive a change in a setting content shown in the setting item. The posture acquisition section acquires posture information indicating the posture of the main body from the image reading apparatus. The setting reception section switches the setting item displayed on the display portion to the setting content according to the posture when the posture indicated by the posture information is switched.

A conveyance path for a document (D) has a first conveyance path (R1) that turns back midway and a second conveyance path (R2) that extends rectilinearly. When the document (D) is of a particular type, if a setting to use the first conveyance path (R1) has been made, a control section (4) has a warning message (MS1) displayed.

An image reading device includes a reading unit, a background member, and processing circuitry. The reading unit includes alight source to emit light to a passage area through which an object passes and an imaging device to capture reflected light of the light emitted to generate a visible image and an invisible image. The background member is disposed opposite the light source across the passage area. The processing circuitry is configured to: detect a change in an image characteristic due to a change in an optical characteristic of the reading unit, in invisible images obtained by capturing of invisible marks on the background member; determine a correction amount of an image characteristic to be used for correcting an image of the object generated by the imaging device, based on the change in the image characteristic detected; and correct the image characteristic based on the correction amount determined.

A document placement detecting device includes a document table, a plate, a plurality of invisible light sources, an imaging device, and circuitry. The document table transmits light. The plate is openable and closable relative to the document table, and covers the document table in a closed state of the plate. The plurality of invisible light sources irradiate a placement area with invisible light via the document table. The placement area is an area of the document table on which a document is placed. The imaging device receives reflected light from the document, and outputs read data. The circuitry detects the placement of the document with a change in a read value of the read data output from the imaging device based on the irradiation with the invisible light.

An image forming apparatus (100) extracts from first image data (11) second image data (12), which is image data of a document, and accepts operation for selecting either a first preview image (71) corresponding to the first image data (11) or a second preview image (72) corresponding to the second image data (12). The image forming apparatus (100) outputs, when the first preview image (71) is selected, the first image data (11) and, when the second preview image (72) is selected, the second image data (12).

According to an embodiment, an image forming apparatus transmits, where a shake sensor has detected a shake of a predetermined magnitude or more, response request information to a destination indicated by destination information stored in a storage device. The image forming apparatus stores, where a response has been received from the destination, information regarding the received response in the storage device.

An image reading apparatus includes an original illuminator; a reflector for reflecting light reflected by the original; a reading portion for reading the light reflected by the reflector; a holding member holding the reflection member; a first bonding portion connecting the holding member and one end portion of the reflector in a direction along a reflecting surface of the reflection member; and a second bonding portion connecting the holding member and the other end portion of the reflector in the direction along the reflecting surface of the reflection member. The second bonding portion has a hardness less than that of the first bonding portion.

An image processing apparatus includes a selection unit, a determination unit, and a control unit to set candidates to be selected by the selection unit. If determination unit determines that there is not a set of a size and an orientation of a document of which the orientation cannot be correctly determined, the control unit sets, as selection unit selection candidates, candidates of sets of sizes and orientations of a plurality of documents. If the determination unit determines that there is a set of a size and an orientation of a document of which the orientation cannot be correctly determined, the control unit sets, as selection unit selection candidates, candidates obtained by excluding the set of the size and the orientation of the document of which the orientation cannot be correctly determined from the candidates of the sets of the sizes and the orientations of the plurality of documents.

An information processing apparatus includes a processor configured to acquire, from a read image, a predetermined item, and a value corresponding to the item, the read image being obtained by reading a document and being subjected, prior to acquisition of the item and the value, to preprocessing and character recognition. Further, the processor is configured to, in response to not successfully acquiring at least one of the item and the value, change a setting on the preprocessing or a setting on the character recognition in accordance with the acquisition or non-acquisition state of the item and the value, and then perform the preprocessing or the character recognition.

An information processing apparatus is configured to perform information processing on a target. The information processing apparatus includes one or more processors; and one or more memories storing program instructions that cause the one or more processors to perform a plurality of processes, the plurality of processes including a first process of adding information to the target and a second process of obtaining the information; control each of the plurality of processes; and perform a correcting process of concurrently performing corrections with respect to the plurality of processes.
