Provided is an image forming system in which an image forming apparatus is connected to a post-processing apparatus having a function of trimming. The image forming system includes: a repeat setting part that determines either: a setting of a scan size of a scan image per one printed reproduction of the scan image, the one printed reproduction being to be laid out by imposition of the scan image; or a setting of the imposition of the scan image according to the scan size of the scan image; a trimming setting part that determines either: a setting of a card size of cards to be obtained by trimming a recording medium; or a setting of a trimming area for the cards; and a coordination part that coordinates the repeat setting part and the trimming setting part.

An image processing apparatus includes a processor configured to: acquire a read image of a document that is read by a document reading apparatus; and control an image output device such that the read image and an additional image are outputted to a medium with a significance portion and the additional image prevented from overlapping, and a length of the medium in a sub scanning direction is increased in a case where the significance portion of the read image and a specified region of the read image to which the additional image is decided to be added overlap.

A nail production system according to an embodiment of the disclosure includes a first correction section and a first conversion section. The first correction section corrects shape data of an existing nail tip or an existing nail sticker on the basis of measurement data of a nail, to thereby generate shape data of an original nail tip or an original nail sticker. The first conversion section converts the shape data of the original nail tip or the original nail sticker that is generated by the first correction section into print data.

Provided are an image forming apparatus for outputting a plurality of images having different sizes according to a method pre-set by a user without interrupting a current printing operation when the plurality of images having different sizes are obtained and a method of operating the image forming apparatus.

A data processing method for repeatedly recording a first basic pattern image and a second basic pattern image on a base material includes the following a) and b). In the a), the first basic pattern image (D1) and the second basic pattern image (D2) are stored. In the b), a pixel value to be recorded is calculated for each recording layout coordinate set indicating a position on the base material. Further, in the b), a pixel value of a first basic pattern coordinate set indicative of a position on the first basic pattern image (D1) and a pixel value of a second basic pattern coordinate set indicative of a position on the second basic pattern image (D2) are each assigned to a corresponding one of the recording layout coordinate sets so as to cause the first basic pattern image (D1) and the second basic pattern image (D2) to be arranged side by side in an X-axis direction and to cause the first basic pattern image (D1) and the second basic pattern image (D2) to be each arranged continuously and repeatedly in a Y-axis direction orthogonal to the X-axis direction.

A print control device includes a controller. The controller edits an image constituted by one or more objects including one or more upper objects, acquires an image area length, an image area width, a lower tape length, and a lower tape width, designates one upper object from among the one or more upper objects, and acquires an object area length, an object area width, and an upper tape width. In a case where a precondition is met for the designated upper object, the controller sets an orientation to a parallel orientation when a first condition or a third condition is met, and sets the orientation to an orthogonal orientation when a second condition or a fourth condition is met. The controller issues an error notification when the precondition is met but all of the first condition, the second condition, the third condition, and the fourth condition are not met.

An information processing apparatus includes a generating unit configured to generate a reference image based on an image of a first object, an image of a second object, and processing information on processes including a process of inserting a second object into the first object. The first object has at least one window portion through which the inserted second object is at least partially visible, a verifying unit configured to verify a captured image with the generated reference image, the captured image being obtained by capturing the first object into which the second object has been inserted, and an outputting unit configured to output a result of the verification.

An image forming apparatus includes: a printer that prints a plurality of images in a state where the plurality of images are divided in a plurality of lanes on a continuous sheet, the plurality of lanes respectively corresponding to the plurality of images; an inspector that reads each of the plurality of images printed on the continuous sheet and conducts an inspection; and a hardware processor that controls the printer to reprint an image that has been detected to be abnormal on the continuous sheet on which the image that has been detected to be abnormal has been printed, in a case where any of the plurality of images has been detected to be abnormal in the inspection conducted by the inspector.

A printing apparatus having a copying function includes a document feeder that feeds a document, an image reading section that scans the document fed from the document feeder and generates image data of the document, a printing section that performs printing on paper in accordance with the image data, and a controller. The controller performs an avoidance process of avoiding performing the printing in which a size of a sheet of the document and a size of the paper do not match against an intention of a user, in a case where a setting is made in which the document, on which single-sided printing is performed, is printed on both sides of the paper to perform double-sided printing, and the document includes sheets having different sizes and includes an odd number of successive sheets with an identical size.
