A system includes a print unit configured to print an answer sheet including a plurality of free-form answer fields and a plurality of marking fields, the plurality of marking fields being configured to mark answers written in the respective plurality of free-form answer fields, a reading unit configured to read the answer sheet printed by the print unit, a marking unit configured to mark the answers based at least on description of the plurality of marking fields included in the answer sheet read by the reading unit, and an aggregation unit configured to aggregate results of marking made by the marking unit.

An information processing apparatus includes a processor configured to receive designation of a person capable of stamping on plural stamping areas in a document having the plural stamping areas, and present a stamping area that is capable of being stamped by a printer who performs printing to the printer as a different state from states of other stamping areas in a case where the document is printed and a condition is satisfied, in which the printer is a person capable of stamping on at least one of the plural stamping areas and a corresponding stamping area is before a stamping work by another person capable of stamping, and not present the stamping area in a case where the condition is not satisfied.

A copying apparatus capable of calibrating a copy position comprises a scanning module scanning an original to obtain an original image; and a processing module being electrically connected to the scanning module and recognizing whether the original image contains an original mark corresponding to a template mark. If the original image contains the original mark, then the processing module generates print data for being printed out according to the original image and a position parameter of the template mark. A copying method capable of calibrating the copy position is also provided. Thus, the copy position can be calibrated according to the mark of the original to prevent the copy result from having a positional offset. Consequently, no positional offset occurs even if the original is copied multiple times based on the previous generation of original.

An image processing apparatus includes an image reading portion, a position detection portion, and a print processing portion. The image reading portion is configured to read an image of a document. The position detection portion is configured to detect position information of each of check boxes included in a read image by the image reading portion. The print processing portion is configured to be able to print a position specifying image indicating the position information of each of check boxes detected by the position detection portion.

A mobile terminal including a main body; a display unit disposed on one surface of the main body; a 3D camera configured to capture an image of a 3D shape disposed together with reference markers; a controller configured to create scan data, based on distances to the image from the reference markers, and display a scan image of the 3D shape, based on the scan data.

A method for image processing by: obtaining an original image including a bulleted list; determining a list bounding box enclosing the bulleted list; determining line bounding boxes nested within the list bounding box enclosing lines of the bulleted list; identifying bullets based on the line bounding boxes; identifying indentations based on the bullets; and generating a bulleted list object for the bulleted list in the original image based on the indentations.

The disclosure discloses methods and systems for handling content of a document based on one or more identifiers. The method includes receiving the document having content marked using one or more starting identifiers and corresponding one or more ending identifiers, the content marked between each starting identifier and corresponding ending identifier indicates content for one of: extraction, deletion, replacement and sharing, the content in the document is marked using braille symbols. The content is marked using an erasable marking device without affecting the document. A selection of a function to be performed on the marked content is received. The document is scanned to generate a scanned document. The scanned document is analyzed to identify the one or more starting identifiers and the one or more ending identifiers. Based on the selection of the function to be performed on the marked content, perform one of: extraction, deletion, replacement and sharing.

An image scanning device includes a platen, an image scanning unit that scans at a single time documents placed on the platen and generates pieces of image data, and an image data processing unit that performs processing of the pieces of image data. When the image scanning unit generates pieces of first image data by scanning first surfaces of the documents, each of which is placed in one of predetermined areas on the platen, and generates pieces of second image data by scanning surfaces opposite to the first surfaces of the documents, each of which is turned over and placed again in the one of the predetermined areas, the image data processing unit associates one of the pieces of the first image data with a corresponding one of the pieces of the second image data for each of the predetermined areas, as image data of the front and back surfaces.

A sheet medium conveying device conveys a sheet medium in which position detection marks are provided at regular intervals in a medium conveying direction in which the sheet medium is conveyed. The sheet medium conveying device includes a controller that controls conveyance of the sheet medium. The controller selects one of a first standby position and a second standby position located downstream of the first standby position in the medium conveying direction, and conveys the sheet medium to the selected standby position and puts the sheet medium on standby.
