## Abstract

A data processing apparatus includes a preread data acquisition unit that reads a document with preread setting, and acquires preread data including plural preread page data; and a main processing data generation unit that generates main processing data on the basis of main read setting applied to main processing on the document, the preread setting, and a document property of each page of the document acquired by analyzing the preread data, by using, for a page with corresponding one of the preread page data satisfying the main read setting, the corresponding preread page data, and by using main read page data acquired by reading the document with the main read setting for a page with corresponding one of the preread page data not satisfying the main read setting, among pages included in the document.

## Claims

### Claim 1

A data processing apparatus, comprising:
a preread data acquisition unit that reads a document with preread setting, and acquires preread data including a plurality of preread page data; and
a main processing data generation unit that generates main processing data on the basis of main read setting applied to main processing on the document, the preread setting, and a document property of each page of the document acquired by analyzing the preread data, by using, for a page with corresponding one of the preread page data satisfying the main read setting, the corresponding preread page data, and by using main read page data acquired by reading the document with the main read setting for a page with corresponding one of the preread page data not satisfying the main read setting, among pages included in the document.

### Claim 2 (depends on 1)

The data processing apparatus according to claim 1, further comprising:
a main read data acquisition unit that reads the document and acquires the main read page data at the main processing on the document, among the pages included in the document, the main read data acquisition unit to send without reading processing a page with corresponding one of the preread page data satisfying the main read setting, the main read data acquisition unit to execute the reading processing on a page with corresponding one of the preread page data not satisfying the main read setting and to acquire the main read page data.

### Claim 3 (depends on 1)

The data processing apparatus according to claim 1,
wherein previously determined temporary preread setting includes a setting item having a setting value, the main read setting includes a setting item having a setting value, and the preread setting is determined by selecting one of the setting values with a higher grade than a grade of the other one of the setting values on a setting item basis.

### Claim 4 (depends on 1)

The data processing apparatus according to claim 1, further comprising:
an alert output unit that, when a user selects the main read setting having a content different from a content of the preread setting, outputs an alert by sound to the user.

### Claim 5 (depends on 1)

The data processing apparatus according to claim 1, further comprising:
a character information extraction unit that extracts character information indicative of a content of the document from the preread data; and
a document content notification unit that outputs the character information by sound before the main processing.

### Claim 6

A non-transitory computer readable medium storing a data processing program causing a computer to execute a process for data processing, the process comprising:
reading a document with preread setting, and acquiring preread data including a plurality of preread page data; and
generating main processing data on the basis of main read setting applied to main processing on the document, the preread setting, and a document property of each page of the document acquired by analyzing the preread data, by using, for a page with corresponding one of the preread page data satisfying the main read setting, the corresponding preread page data, and by using main read page data acquired by reading the document with the main read setting for a page with corresponding one of the preread page data not satisfying the main read setting, among pages included in the document.
