Methods and systems for improving a photography business are disclosed, comprising, in an embodiment, taking a photograph of a coded component together with a series of photographs for the client. The coded component comprises human-readable information and is provided to the client for access to the photographs. The coded component also comprises machine-readable information, enabling a server to sort the photographs to the corresponding jobs without operator intervention. The coded component can also comprise a fillable option field to identify that the photographs associated with the coded component are to be specially treated according to a desired selection.

Generally, a scanner of the present embodiment, which reads a first surface with a first reading section configured to read the first surface of a sheet and a second surface with a second reading section configured to read the second surface opposite to the first surface of the sheet, executes individual processing on a first reading image of the first surface and a second reading image of the second surface.

An image scanning apparatus is disclosed. The image scanning apparatus comprises: a scanner for generating a scan image by scanning a loaded document; and a controller for in response to sensing the presence of a preset identification mark in the generated scan image, processing, with a first job, the scan image before the document in which an identification mark is present and processing, with a second job, the scan image for the document in which an identification mark is present and the scan image after the document.

An image scanning device includes a detector and a setter. The detector scans an image in units of pages, and detects a code image included in the image in units of pages. When the detector detects the code image on one page and then detects the code image on another page, the setter sets a scanning area on a subsequent page following the other page in accordance with a position of the code image detected on the one page and a position of the code image detected on the other page.

An image reading apparatus includes a front surface reading sensor configured to read a front surface of a document, a rear surface reading sensor configured to read a rear surface of the document, a storage control unit configured to store image data of the front surface of the document read by the front surface reading sensor and image data of the rear surface of the document read by the rear surface reading sensor, and an encoding unit configured to encode image data of the paired front and rear surface images based on the image data of the front surface and the image data of the rear surface.
