PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a picture processor that electronic document data comprising picture data of a color graphic whose data size is large can be restored and the restriction of the upper limit size of electronic document data becoming the source of a distributed paper document is largely relieved. SOLUTION: Relating to a picture processor printing and outputting inputted electronic document data, a character data part with less data quantity is printed and outputted by a code pattern as it is and only position data in document data in a picture data part with much data quantity is printed and outputted by the code pattern at the time of printing and outputting electronic document data for restoring original electronic document data from the paper document obtained by printing and outputting electronic document data comprising picture data with much data quantity such as a color graphic. At the time of restoring electronic document data, position data are obtained from the code pattern in the picture data part and a corresponding area on the paper document is road. Thus, picture data deleted at the time of printing are obtained and supplemented. Then, electronic document data are generated. |
