IMAGE PROCESSING SYSTEM, IMAGE READER, IMAGE PROCESSOR, AND IMAGE PROCESSING PROGRAM

摘要

PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To improve operability of editing operations and to attain efficient editing work in such a case as post-editing text portions included in an input image.

SOLUTION: The image reader 1 included in an image processing system discriminates text regions in an input image from a background region containing non-text objects, generates outline data by applying an outline conversion to text images contained in the text regions and grouping the text images character by character, and generates an editable data file DF by combining the outline data with the background data. The server computer 3 stores the data file DF and in response to a request from a client computer 4 the server computer 3 transmits the data file DF to the client computer 4. At that time, the server computer 3 reads the data file DF and changes a grouping of outline data included in the data file DF to a specified grouping.
