An example image forming device includes an image input unit to receive a plurality of original documents, and a processor to extract handwriting from the respective original documents to generate a printed layer and a handwritten layer for each of the respective original documents, and to reconfigure the printed layers and a plurality of handwritten layers sharing the printed layers as respective files.

An image forming apparatus includes an image scanning device, a printing device, an output tray, and a controller. The image scanning device scans a document image sheet by sheet from a document including plural sheets. The output tray is as an output destination of both the document outputted from the image scanning device and a print sheet outputted from the printing device. The controller is configured to perform a copy operation and causes the printing device to print an image based on the document image in the copy operation. Further, the printing device includes an outlet of the print sheet; and the image scanning device includes an outlet of the document, the outlet of the document outputting the document such that edges of the document and the print sheet in a width direction of the output tray are arranged at positions different from each other.

An image reading apparatus includes a document reading device, an operation device, and a control device. The document reading device collectively reads a plurality of documents loaded on a document loading surface to generate image data. The control device functions as an individual image cutter, an operation receiver, and a generator. The individual image cutter cuts, from the image data generated by the document reading device, individual images independent for the respective documents. The operation receiver receives, via the operation device, a first instruction indicating a number of documents collected in one image. The generator generates document image data which is corresponding to an image of a size formable on a single recording medium and which has a collection of pieces of individual image data indicating the individual images, in unit of the number indicated by the first instruction.

Examples disclosed herein relate to receiving a document comprising a plurality of document elements, removing a first document element of the plurality of document elements from the document, re-positioning a second document element of the plurality of document elements in the document, and inserting a new document element comprising a link to a source of the document.

An image processing device includes an external memory interface to write image data to an image memory, and an inclination correction circuit. The inclination correction circuit generates coordinate information based on inclination information, detects, from the coordinate information, a minimum sub-scanning coordinate in each of divided areas of the image data, generates first read addresses for reading the divided areas of the image data from the image memory based on the minimum sub-scanning coordinate, reads the divided areas of the image data from the image memory based on the first read addresses, writes the divided areas of the image data to an internal memory, generates second read addresses for reading the divided areas of the image data from the internal memory based on the coordinate information, and reads the divided areas of the image data from the internal memory based on the second read addresses.

A transmitting and receiving system includes a first information processing apparatus and a second information processing apparatus. The first information processing apparatus includes a first cache memory, and the second information processing apparatus includes a second cache memory. The second information processing apparatus is configured to transmit and receive information to and from the first information processing apparatus. When transmission information to be transmitted from the first information processing apparatus to the second information processing apparatus is stored in the first cache memory of the first information processing apparatus, the first information processing apparatus transmits partial information that is included in the stored transmission information to the second information processing apparatus or transmits identification information that identifies the transmission information to the second information processing apparatus.

A printing apparatus in which a controller controls an image forming unit. When a cover sheet is a first type of sheet, a normal image is formed on the cover sheet after forming the image on a body sheet and the cover sheet is conveyed to a saddle finisher without reversing the cover sheet. When the cover sheet has a higher transparency than the first type of sheet and is able to be reversed, a mirror image is formed on the cover sheet after forming the image on the body sheet. When the cover sheet is a third type of sheet having a higher transparency than the first type of sheet and is not able to be reversed by the reversing mechanism, a normal image is formed on the cover sheet after forming the image on the body sheet and the cover sheet on which the normal image has been formed is conveyed to the saddle finisher without reversing the cover sheet.
