Abstract: A terminal device performs communication with a MFP (Multifunction Peripheral), and each of cloud servers. Terminal device executes transmitting and receiving process for image data with the MFP and the cloud servers via a cooperation application program. The terminal device switches a working application in the terminal device to another application, during the transmitting and receiving process via the cooperation application program. In this instance, the terminal device suspends the transmitting and receiving process. The terminal device executes transmitting and receiving process via the another application for a part of the image data for which the transmitting and receiving process is not executed.

Abstract: A processor of an MFP generates a first additional image based on an image in a designated region of a document. Furthermore, the processor of the MFP generates a second additional image showing a difference between the document and a document before revision of the document. Then, the processor of the MFP registers the first additional image and the second additional image on a server in association with a marker image showing the revised edition number of the document.

Abstract: An image forming apparatus that assists classification of printed sheets of documents of print jobs includes: a correspondence table showing correspondence between sticky note attributes and keywords; and a hardware processor. The attributes represent appearance features of sticky notes to be attached to edges of the sheets so as to protrude from the edges. The keywords are extracted from the documents and denote topics of the documents. In response to execution request of a new print job, the hardware processor extracts a keyword from a document of the new job, judges whether the extracted keyword partially matches any keyword in the correspondence table, and when judging positively, creates a new sticky note attribute partially having an appearance feature represented by the sticky note attribute corresponding to the partially matching keyword in the correspondence table, and adds the new sticky note attribute to the correspondence table together with the extracted keyword.
