Abstract: Among other things, at a cloud-based service, digital image files are received from which digital images can be displayed on devices. For each of the digital image files, data is embedded in the digital image file on behalf of a party who has rights in the digital image file. The existence of the embedded data is not perceptible in any digital image that is displayed using the digital image file. The embedded data includes information from which the digital image file can be authenticated. At the cloud-based service, a digital image file is received that is to be authenticated. The digital image file is authenticated based on the embedded data.

Abstract: Conventionally, during a copy operation, certain advanced mode settings make the extraction of additional security information impossible. In order to solve this problem, the print control apparatus includes: determining unit for determining an interval between a pattern element and a pattern element adjacent to the pattern element from the received image data; and control unit for performing a control so as to scale the image at a magnification specified by a user and have the scaled image printed by a printing apparatus when the product of the magnification specified by the user and the interval determined by the determining unit falls within a predetermined range, and configured to terminate or interrupt the printing of the image by the printing apparatus when the product of the magnification specified by the user and the interval determined by the determining unit does not fall within the predetermined range.

Abstract: A forensic verification system (900) extracts a print signature via a print signature extractor (910) from a captured image of a printed halftone. The system (900) utilizes a comparator (920) to compare the print signature to a reference signature stored in a registry to determine differences between the print signature and the reference signature. The system (900) utilizes a forensic analyzer (930) to perform a forensic analysis on the signatures based on the comparison to authenticate the printed halftone.

Abstract: The present invention provides specific image adding section for adding the specific image to inputted image data includes a first counter for deciding positions of a main scanning direction and a vertical scanning direction and a second counter for specifying a form of the specific image. The second counter counts up addresses of pixels with a starting point at one corner on a matrix made up of the main scanning direction and vertical scanning direction. If the first counter counts a predetermined count value, the second counter starts. When a maximum value of the count value of the second counter is equal to or less than a count set value, an image is formed on each of the pixels. The pixel on which the image is formed is changed and the form of the specific image is also changed by changing the count set value.
