INFORMATION PROVIDING DEVICE, INFORMATION PROVIDING METHOD, AND COMPUTER PROGRAM

摘要

To provide a device capable of providing a user with a content of a document in various languages. An information providing device saves a document that is posted in a given posting place and respective electronic files of a translation of the document in one or more other languages, in association with the same identification information, and records the posting place of the document. The information providing device issues a code image including a two-dimensional code created by encoding a two-dimensional code character string for identifying the electronic file associated with the same identification information. The information providing device receives, from a user terminal device that accesses the electronic file by decoding the two-dimensional code from the document on which the code image is printed, character code data indicating the language set in the user terminal device, and transmits the electronic file of the translation translated into the language indicated by the character code data to the user terminal device together with information that indicates the posting place of the document, thereby providing the translation and the information that indicates the posting place of the document.
