A control method for an image processing apparatus includes displaying a display area that includes a printable area corresponding to an area to be printed on a recording medium and a non-printable area corresponding to an area not to be printed and in which at least one image that is a printing target is to be arranged, display a setting area, other than the display area, for accepting an operation for automatically changing, within the display area, a position of the at least one image arranged in the display area, and, upon accepting the operation on the setting area, automatically changing a position of a predetermined image arranged in an uppermost portion of the display area and a position of at least part of a crop mark, the part being set above the predetermined image, such that the predetermined image and the part fall within the printable area.

Provided is a printing apparatus including a cassette configured to be capable of managing a stored paper-sheet by using paper-sheet size information and paper-sheet attribute data, in which an adjustment value of a print position is registered to copied paper-sheet attribute data if an event in which the adjustment value is registered to paper-sheet attribute data in which the paper-sheet size information is not set occurs.

An image processing apparatus generates a first image by adjusting luminance so as to preserve a signal value on a high-luminance side among signal values acquired by reading a document by a scanner, and detects a position of a region corresponding to the document in the generated first image. The image processing apparatus further generates a second image by performing adjustment so as to increase luminance of a pixel contained in the first image, and crops a document image from the generated second image based on the detected position of the region corresponding to the document.

Provided is a printing apparatus including a cassette configured to be capable of managing a stored paper-sheet by using paper-sheet size information and paper-sheet attribute data, in which an adjustment value of a print position is registered to copied paper-sheet attribute data if an event in which the adjustment value is registered to paper-sheet attribute data in which the paper-sheet size information is not set occurs.

Methods and systems for creating labels from a template can involve correcting an image of a form captured by an image-capturing device, detecting in the image of the form a group of features including one or more polygons, and one or more writable areas in polygon(s), creating a template of the form based on the group of features detected in the image, and transmitting the template electronically to a requester of the template.

A method and system for creating a printing plate from a vector format image file having image and non-image areas. A boundary in vector coordinates is identified via a user interface that defines each image area corresponding to an image patch. The image file is raster image processed (RIPped) to create RIPped image information associated with the vector coordinates corresponding to the image patches. The RIPped image information and associated vector coordinates are processed to create RIPped image patches, register marks attached to each RIPped image patch, and the RIPped image patches with register marks and corresponding vector coordinates stored in a processing file. The system includes a computer memory, an interface for providing the image file, a user interface, and a computer processor configured to perform the method.

An image reading apparatus includes a document table, a first generating section, a first assigning section, a second generating section, a second assigning section, and a relating section. The first generating section generates a plurality of first image data pieces representing respective first side images of a plurality of documents. The first assigning section assigns first symbols to the respective first image data pieces based on a reference position of the document table. The second generating section generates a plurality of second image data pieces representing respective second side images of the plurality of documents. The second assigning section assigns second symbols to the respective second image data pieces based on the reference position. The relating section relates the first image data pieces to the respective second image data pieces based on the first symbols and the second symbols.

Aspects of the present disclosure provide methods and apparatuses for processing a digital image of a document, for example, to determine whether the document is a long document. An exemplary method generally includes obtaining a plurality of digital images of the document, segmenting at least a first digital image of the plurality of images into pixels associated with a foreground of the first digital image and pixels associated with a background of the first digital image, detecting a plurality of contours in the segmented first digital image, deciding, for each detected contour of the plurality of contours, whether that contour is an open contour or a closed contour, and determining that one or more sides of the document is out of bounds based, at least in part, on the decisions.

Even from a plurality of small documents, their front-side and back-side images to be formed on a recording paper sheet, with alignment and coincidence of the front-side and back-side images of each document between the front and back sides of the recording paper sheet. In an image forming apparatus, an image processing section detects a front-side image of an original document from a scan area read in a first scan by an image reading section, detects a back-side image of the original document from a scan area read in a second scan, and moves or rotates the front-side image and the back-side image of the original document in terms of a whole image of the scan area so that the front-side image and the back-side image of the original document are brought into alignment and coincidence between a front side and a back side of a recording paper sheet.

A device, a process execution system, a process execution method, and a non-transitory recording medium. The device requests an information processing system to perform a second process using result of a first process executed by the device, displays on a display, result of the second process acquired from the information processing system, and receives a request for the device to execute the first process again.
