PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To correctly read a character, even if the describing position of the character is deviated in optical character reading. SOLUTION: A segmentation control part 14 calculates segmentation start position and the number of segmentation characters for segmenting a character image, comprising its front and rear character positions based on the character start position and the effective number of characters to be read, which is registered in a slip form file 18 and controls a character-segmenting part 13. Then the part 13 segments the character image, having equal to or more than the prescribed effective number of characters, a character-recognizing part 15 recognizes the character and a character code is stored in a buffer memory 16. An output processing part 17 abandons invalid data such as 'null' in the character code stored in the buffer memory 16 and outputs only valid data for the portion of the valid number of characters as output data OUT.
