An object extraction section of an image output apparatus determines as an extraction region either (a) a quadrangular region enclosed by a quadrangle in which all internal angles are less than 180° and sides are constituted by 4 edge pixel groups each in the form of a line segment, the 4 edge pixel groups being indicated by edge information, or (b) a polygonal region enclosed by a polygon in which all internal angles are less than 180° and sides are constituted by at least one edge pixel group in the form of a line segment, which edge pixel group is indicated by the edge information, and at least one line segment located on an end portion of the captured image, and then (ii) cuts out, as output target image data, image data of the extraction region from the captured image data. This makes it possible to accurately and easily extract, from a captured image, a region including a rectangular image capture object that a user desires.
