An image processing apparatus includes a processor, and memory storing computer readable instructions, when executed by the processor, causing the apparatus to function as a storage destination specifying unit configured analyze original image data generated by optically reading a document, the document including a body area having information written therein, and also including a storage destination specifying area representing information for specifying a storage destination to store target image data representing a target including the body area, so as to specify the storage destination to store the target image data, and a target image data providing unit configured to provide the target image data to the specified storage destination.

An image reading apparatus includes a reading unit, an addition unit, and a transfer unit. The reading unit reads image data from a document. The addition unit adds attribute information regarding a preset item to the image data read by the reading unit. The transfer unit transfers to a specified destination the image data to which the attribute information is added by the addition unit.

A document reading device includes a document reading section, a sticky note image detecting section, a first determining section, a detection target image storage section, a consistent image detecting section, a second determining section, and a control section. When the first determining section determines that the position of a sticky note image in a document image of an original document is at a location in the document where a content is described and the second determining section determines that an image consistent with the sticky note image is located at a signature space in a second document image of the original document read by a different reading, the control section permits formation or saving of the second document image acquired by the different reading.

A method including generating first images and/or text on a plurality of items, printing a plurality of unique identifiers, each unique identifier being printed over the images and/or text on a corresponding one of the plurality of items, capturing a plurality of second images, each second image including a corresponding one of the plurality of unique identifiers, and storing the captured plurality of second images in a computer readable memory.
