<P>PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a document processing service system with a sponsor; and to provide its method and program. <P>SOLUTION: When a document processing service request is submitted from a user, a sponsor associated with the request is retrieved. Next, a condition on the sponsor side such as printing of an advertisement to an output document is presented to the user; and, when the condition is accepted, a selected process is executed along with, for instance, the printing of the advertisement to the output document. Although the sponsor is charged with a processing rate, the user is charged with a remaining amount when the sponsor bears only partial payment. <P>COPYRIGHT: (C)2007,JPO&INPIT |
