PURPOSE:To constitute the device so that addition, change, etc., are executed to data of a page memory before it is inputted to a host device by an operation from the host device, and even in the case the data is compressed and transmitted to the host device, a memory of a large capacity and a data conversion processing are not required in the host device, and even in the case the data is printed out, a document which looks well is prepared. CONSTITUTION:In accordance with a command from a host device 1, a main processor 2 stores read data from a scanner 5 and character graphic data from a character graphic generating circuit 8 in a page memory 6. Accordingly, first of all, by outputting a scanning instruction from the host device 1, and outputting an overwriting instruction after its scanning processing, a designated character graphic image is generated from the character graphic generating circuit 8, and it is annexed to read data from the scanner 5 in the page memory 6. |
