RIGHTS MANAGEMENT IN A DISTRIBUTED IMAGE CAPTURE SYSTEM

摘要

Approaches are provided for processing scan data based on a scan process definition (SPD) that defines a set of instructions for acquiring image data based on one or more printed documents. An SPD may include extension data that is used to store additional data in association with the scan data. An SPD may include rights management data that is used to provide security to the scan data that is generated based on the SPD. An SPD may be used as a print process definition for dictating how print operations are to be performed. An SPD may be associated with data that identifies one or more scan devices that are prohibited from using the SPD. An SPD may be associated with access delegation data that indicates one or more users who have been delegated access to the SPD.

1. A system comprising:
one or more processors; and one or more storage media storing instructions which, when processed by the one or more processors, cause:
receiving, over a network from a first image capture device, image capture data and particular data that is associated with processing image capture data and that is identified in a capture process definition;validating the capture process definition that was used by the first image capture device to capture the image capture data; andupon successful validation of the capture process definition, processing the image capture data according to the particular data that is associated with processing image capture data.
