Abstract: The failure mail identification section and delivery status notification mail identification section identify whether or not the received E-mail data is failure mail and delivery status notification mail, respectively. Based on the identification result, the specific information extraction section extracts information necessary for output from the E-mail data. The format conversion section converts the extracted data to facsimile data. The data edit section edits the converted data. The edited data is transmitted by the facsimile communication unit to the G3 facsimile via PSTN. This allows failure mail and delivery status notification mail to be distinguished from normal E-mail, saving recording paper.

Abstract: A particular image written in a particular paper of a particular paper size is scanned by a scanner to produce image data, a format of the image data is changed to a mail format to change the image data to mail data, the particular paper size is added to the mail data, and the mail data is transmitted from a transmitting side to a receiving side through a LAN by an electronic mail. In the receiving side, the mail data is changed to reproduced image data, and it is judged whether or not the particular paper size of the particular paper is larger than a prescribed paper size treatable on the receiving side. In cases where the particular paper size is larger than the prescribed paper size, the reproduced image data is thinned but to produce adjusted image data, and a downsized image is printed on a prescribed paper of the prescribed paper size according to the adjusted image data. Accordingly, even though an image written in a paper of a paper size not treatable on the receiving side is transmitted from the transmitting side to the receiving side, because the image is downsized, the image can be reproduced on the receiving side.

Abstract: A plurality of documents including at least one symbol is scanned by a scanner section so as to be converted to image data. The symbol is recognized from image data by a symbol recognizing section. Next, a table creating section creates a link table in which the symbol included in one page is made to correspond to the other page having a common shaped symbol. A document creating section creates an HTML document using the link table based on an HTML. When the symbol of one page in the HTML document on a screen is clicked, an access to the other page can be obtained.

Abstract: An electronic-mail receiver, a converter, a controller, a facsimile transmitter, and an output system are integrated in a body of an apparatus. The electronic-mail receiver receives an electronic-mail including image data in an electronic-mail format. The converter converts the image data in an electronic-mail format into image data in facsimile format. The controller determines whether the received electronic-mail is directed to facsimile transmission. The facsimile transmitter negotiates with a facsimile destination, and transmits the converted image data in the facsimile format to the facsimile destination via a telephone network, when the controller determines that the received electronic-mail is directed to facsimile transmission. The printer outputs the image data in the facsimile format when the controller determines that the received electronic-mail address is not directed to facsimile transmission.

Abstract: An electronic mail system connected to a network includes a section for converting an image of a document surface into corresponding document image data, and a section for compressing the document image data into compression-resultant image data. The electronic mail system also includes a section for converting the compression-resultant image data into corresponding image data of a given electronic-mail format, a section for receiving information of an electronic-mail destination address, and a section for transmitting the image data of the electronic-mail format toward the electronic-mail destination address via the network. The electronic mail system may further include a section for receiving image data in an electronic mail, a section for converting the received image data into corresponding received image data of a given facsimile format, a section for expanding the received image data of the facsimile format into expansion-resultant image data, and a section for printing the expansion-resultant image data.
