An information processing apparatus includes a processor configured to: set a rule for specifying a region in which a value of an item of an attribute assigned to a form shown by an image is shown in the image for each item, from a predetermined first rule, a second rule indicating an arrangement of the region for an element included in the form, which is input by a user, and a third rule indicating coordinates of the region in the image, which are input by the user; and extract the value of the item shown in the region specified by using the set rule.

A non-transitory computer-readable medium stores computer-readable control program instructions configured to, when executed, cause an information processing device to obtain an image file, store the image file in association with related information, generate a file path for the image file, the file path including a plurality of virtual directories based on the related information, the plurality of virtual directories belonging to respective different hierarchical layers, and in response to receiving, from browser program instructions stored in the information processing device, a request for one or more virtual directories belonging to a first lower layer that is hierarchically one level lower than a specified virtual directory in a top layer, retrieve and send the one or more virtual directories to the browser program instructions, thereby enabling the browser program instructions to display the retrieved one or more virtual directories belonging to the first lower layer.

An image reading apparatus includes a scanner, a sensor, and a controller. The sensor is configured to detect an original at a predetermined position. The controller is configured to determine whether or not an immediate execution mode in which no user operation is needed to cause the scanner to start scanning is set, and in case the immediate execution mode is determined to be set, determine whether or not a scan start condition is satisfied. The scan start condition includes the sensor detecting the original at the predetermined position. The controller is configured to control the scanner to start scanning, upon a standby time of a predetermined amount being passed since the scan start condition is satisfied.

An image reading apparatus includes a reading controller, a data generating circuit unit, a document holder, an opening/closing sensor which provides an output of a first level when the document holder is open by an angle equal to or more than a predetermined angle, and a storage unit which stores an adjustment value. Where a return is made from a power saving mode to an active mode, when an output level of the opening/closing sensor is the first level, the reading controller makes a setting for an operation of the data generating circuit unit based on the adjustment value stored in the storage unit, and then makes the reading unit perform reading for document size detection.

An information processing apparatus includes a processor configured to, in a case where there are plural patterns of document areas extracted from an input image obtained by imaging documents, execute display control for displaying the plural patterns as options on a screen, receive selection of a correct pattern among the plural patterns according to the display of the screen through the display control, and extract an image of each document area included in the pattern selected by a user from the input image.

An information processing device includes a processor configured to: receive a setting of a scanning definition, the scanning definition being a definition to be used when scanning information in a first document in which information has been written or inputted into predetermined fields; and cause a result obtained by using the scanning definition to scan a document of similar type to the first document, namely a second document in which information has been written or inputted into predetermined fields, to be displayed.

An image processing apparatus according to the present disclosure is an image processing apparatus for automatically transmitting a document file by using a result of a character recognition process on a scan image of a document as a property, and includes: at least one processor that executes the program to perform: extracting a confidence factor indicating a degree of certainty of the result of the character recognition process; in a case where the extracted confidence factor is above a predetermined threshold value, determining that the document file using the result of the character recognition process as the property is allowed to be automatically transmitted; and setting the predetermined threshold value such that an incorrect transmission ratio of document files to be automatically transmitted reaches a target incorrect transmission ratio.

An information processing apparatus includes a processor configured to: acquire, by using setting information for extraction of texts from an image, an extraction result by extracting texts from a target image obtained by reading a document, or an output result to be output to an outside based on the extraction result; display the extraction result or the output result together with a first screen configured to receive an instruction to change the setting information; and in response to reception of the instruction, display a second screen configured to accept a change of the setting information related to the target image.

An image reading apparatus includes an image sensor to read a document, a sensor to detect whether the document is loaded on the image reading apparatus, and a processor to, when the sensor detects the document is loaded on the image reading apparatus, and before a scan instruction is input to the image reading apparatus, control the image sensor to execute a pre-scan job with respect to the loaded document using a default set value.

An image reading apparatus, having a reader device, a user interface, a communication interface, and a controller, is provided. The controller accepts entry of first receiver-identifying information, in response to entry of a first scan command through the user interface, controls the reader device to read an image of an original material, and stores image data for the read image in relation with the first receiver-identifying information in a predetermined memory area. In response to receiving of a second scan command including second receiver-identifying information that corresponds to the first receiver-identifying information by identifying the same receiver from an information processing apparatus by use of a specific protocol, the controller reads out the image data stored in relation with the first receiver-identifying information corresponding to the second receiver-identifying information included in the second scan command from the predetermined memory area, and transmits the image data to the information processing apparatus.
