The reading unit reads a document. The determining unit specifies, based on a result of reading of the document, a first character string representing a date and a second character string representing a period, and determines an attribute of the document in accordance with the first character string and the second character string. ## Claims ### Claim 1 An information processing apparatus comprising a processor configured to: read a document; and specify, based on a result of reading of the document, a first character string representing a date and a second character string representing a period and determine an attribute of the document in accordance with the first character string and the second character string, wherein the processor specifies a type of the document and specifies a first key and a second key that correspond to the specified type with reference to a memory that stores correspondences between the type and the first key and between the type and the second key, the processor specifies, as the first character string, a character string that includes a numeral and whose positional relationship in the document with the specified first key satisfies a predetermined condition, and the processor specifies, as the second character string, a character string whose positional relationship in the document with the specified second key satisfies a predetermined condition. ### Claim 2 (depends on 1) The information processing apparatus according to claim 1, wherein the processor extracts a predetermined first key from the document and specifies, as the first character string, a character string that includes a numeral and whose positional relationship in the document with the extracted first key satisfies a predetermined condition. ### Claim 3 (depends on 2) The information processing apparatus according to claim 2, wherein the processor extracts a predetermined second key from the document and specifies, as the second character string, a character string whose positional relationship in the document with the extracted second key satisfies a predetermined condition. ### Claim 4 (depends on 3) The information processing apparatus according to claim 3, wherein the processor determines, as the attribute, a date indicating a result obtained by adding the period represented by the second character string to the date represented by the first character string. ### Claim 5 (depends on 4) The information processing apparatus according to claim 4, wherein the processor sets the attribute as a file name of the document or profile information of the document. ### Claim 6 (depends on 3) The information processing apparatus according to claim 3, wherein the processor sets the attribute as a file name of the document or profile information of the document. ### Claim 7 (depends on 2) The information processing apparatus according to claim 2, wherein the processor determines, as the attribute, a date indicating a result obtained by adding the period represented by the second character string to the date represented by the first character string. ### Claim 8 (depends on 7) The information processing apparatus according to claim 7, wherein the processor sets the attribute as a file name of the document or profile information of the document. ### Claim 9 (depends on 2) The information processing apparatus according to claim 2, wherein the processor sets the attribute as a file name of the document or profile information of the document. ### Claim 10 (depends on 1) The information processing apparatus according to claim 1, wherein the processor extracts a predetermined second key from the document and specifies, as the second character string, a character string whose positional relationship in the document with the extracted second key satisfies a predetermined condition. ### Claim 11 (depends on 10) The information processing apparatus according to claim 10, wherein the processor determines, as the attribute, a date indicating a result obtained by adding the period represented by the second character string to the date represented by the first character string. ### Claim 12 (depends on 11) The information processing apparatus according to claim 11, wherein the processor sets the attribute as a file name of the document or profile information of the document. ### Claim 13 (depends on 10) The information processing apparatus according to claim 10, wherein the processor sets the attribute as a file name of the document or profile information of the document. ### Claim 14 (depends on 1) The information processing apparatus according to claim 1, wherein the processor determines, as the attribute, a date indicating a result obtained by adding the period represented by the second character string to the date represented by the first character string. ### Claim 15 (depends on 14) The information processing apparatus according to claim 14, wherein the processor sets the attribute as a file name of the document or profile information of the document. ### Claim 16 (depends on 1) The information processing apparatus according to claim 1, wherein the processor sets the attribute as a file name of the document or profile information of the document. ### Claim 17 (depends on 1) The information processing apparatus according to claim 1, wherein the attribute indicates an expiration date of the document. ### Claim 18 A non-transitory computer readable medium storing a program causing a computer to execute a process, the process comprising: reading a document; specifying, based on a result of the reading the document, a first character string representing a date and a second character string representing a period, and determining an attribute of the document in accordance with the first character string and the second character string; specifying a type of the document and specifies a first key and a second key that correspond to the specified type with reference to a memory that stores correspondences between the type and the first key and between the type and the second key; specifying, as the first character string, a character string that includes a numeral and whose positional relationship in the document with the specified first key satisfies a predetermined condition; and specifying, as the second character string, a character string whose positional relationship in the document with the specified second key satisfies a predetermined condition. ### Claim 19 An information processing apparatus comprising: reading means for reading a document; and determining means for specifying, based on a result of reading of the document, a first character string representing a date and a second character string representing a period and for determining an attribute of the document in accordance with the first character string and the second character string, the determining means specifies a type of the document and specifies a first key and a second key that correspond to the specified type with reference to a memory that stores correspondences between the type and the first key and between the type and the second key, the determining means specifies, as the first character string, a character string that includes a numeral and whose positional relationship in the document with the specified first key satisfies a predetermined condition, and the determining means specifies, as the second character string, a character string whose positional relationship in the document with the specified second key satisfies a predetermined condition.
