摘要:
An image processing apparatus processes image data that contains a confidential image portion. The image processing apparatus includes a receiving unit (112) that receives designation of the confidential image portion; a generating unit (113) that generates specification information that specifies the confidential image portion; an adding unit (114) that adds the specification information to the image data thereby generating first processed image data; and an output unit (105) that outputs the first processed image data.

The invention relates to a confidential document that is generated by encoding distribution destination information specifying a destination to which the confidential document will be distributed. The invention includes an image processing system, comprising: document data inputting means (11, 112, 138, 134, 136) for inputting data to be processed into a confidential document; document image generating means (20, 122, 124) for generating a document image from the data to be processed into a confidential document; destination data obtaining means (12, 122, 124) for obtaining distribution destination information specifying a destination to which the confidential document will be distributed; first image generating means (13, 122, 124) for generating a first image encoded with the distribution destination information, wherein the human reader cannot readily determine the distribution destination information from the first image; image combining means (15, 122, 124) for combining the document image and the first image into combined data; and outputting means (22, 114, 139, 134, 136, 142) for outputting the combined data as the confidential document for distribution to the destination specified by the distribution destination information. The invention also relates to an image processing method, comprising: generating (S103) a document image from data to be processed into a confidential document; obtaining (S102) distribution destination information specifying a destination to which the confidential document will be distributed; generating (S104) a first image encoded with the distribution destination information, wherein the human reader cannot readily determine the distribution destination information from the first image; combining (S106) the document image and the first image into combined data; and outputting (S 107) the combined data as the confidential document for distribution to the destination specified by the distribution destination information. Further, the invention resides in a computer program comprising program code means that, when executed on a computer system, instructs the computer system to perform the image processing method, and a recording medium storing the computer program.

An image forming apparatus (10), an image forming system, and a method to control the same, the method including: adjusting a count of a selected type of job of an image forming apparatus (10) based on a count of another type of job, thereby achieving convenient management of the counts of the plurality of types of jobs.
摘要:
An image processing apparatus includes a first pattern detecting mechanism, a memory, and a pattern identity determining mechanism. The first pattern detecting mechanism detects a background dot pattern embedded in a background image included in image data of an original image from the image data. The memory stores an anti-copy background dot pattern. The pattern identity determining mechanism compares the detected background dot pattern with the anti-copy background dot pattern stored in the memory and determines that the detected background dot pattern is identical to the anti-copy background dot pattern stored in the memory.
摘要:
There is provided an environment where a specified image cannot be obtained, by providing the scanner or the input device with a function of judging the specified image. A scan command is given to a scanner (scanner operating command in Fig. 1), then the image corresponding to the image signal obtained from the scanner in response to the command is judged whether it represents a specified image (forgery judging module in Fig. 1), and the result of such judgment is outputted for use in processing the image signal (result of forgery judgment in Fig. 1).
摘要:
Conventionally, it is impossible to securely and efficiently implement the judgment of specific images. In order to solve this task, an image processing apparatus according to the present invention is characterized in including an input unit (in these embodiments, this corresponds to, for example, the interface unit 111 in FIG. 1) for inputting color image data, a judging unit (this corresponds to, for example, the forgery judging unit 113 in FIG. 1) for judging whether the judgment of whether a color image composed of the color image data is a specific image has been already performed, and an image judging unit (this corresponds to, for example, the forgery unit 113 in FIG. 1) for judging whether the color image includes the specific image if the judgment has not been performed yet.
摘要:
To provide an image processing device able to accurately discriminate a specified image in an input image data, the input image is converted to binary based on black and red color extraction blocks (6 -1 and 6 -2 ) in binary processing unit (1). These binary data are consolidated by an OR circuit and stored in storage device (2). Mark location detection unit (3) extracts a square mark from the image data stored in storage device (2). Pattern shape extraction unit (4) extracts another mark which is inside the square mark. Pattern matching unit (5) obtains and outputs the goodness of fit between the extracted marks and previously established marks.
