Abstract
A see-through image is generated in which a second content image group, which is placed on a second surface as one of respective opposite surfaces, is superposed on a first content image group, which is placed on a first surface as another of the respective opposite surfaces, so as to be visible therethrough. Movement of one of the first content image group and the second content image group is commanded, by designating a position or a mark on the see-through image displayed on a display unit through a user interface.
Claims11
An image editing apparatus for imposing at least one content image on both surfaces of an output medium, comprising:
- a see-through image generator for generating a see-through image in which a second content image group, which is placed on a second surface as one of the both surfaces, is superposed on a first content image group, which is placed on a first surface as another of the both surfaces, so as to be visible therethrough;
- a display unit for displaying the see-through image generated by the see-through image generator;
- an image movement commander for commanding movement of one of the first content image group and the second content image group by designating a position or a mark on the see-through image displayed on the display unit through a user interface;
- a movement distance calculator for calculating a relative movement distance between before and after the movement by which one of the first content image group and the second content image group is moved, in response to a movement command from the image movement commander;
- and
- a position changer for changing a position on the first surface of at least one content image of the first content image group, or a position on the second surface of at least one content image of the second content image group, by the relative movement distance calculated by the movement distance calculator.
An image editing method to be carried out by an image editing apparatus for imposing at least one content image on both surfaces of an output medium, comprising the steps of:
- generating a see-through image in which a second content image group, which is placed on a second surface as one of the both surfaces, is superposed on a first content image group, which is placed on a first surface as another of the both surfaces, so as to be visible therethrough;
- displaying the generated see-through image on a display unit;
- commanding movement of one of the first content image group and the second content image group by designating a position or a mark on the see-through image displayed on the display unit through a user interface;
- calculating a relative movement distance between before and after the movement by which one of the first content image group and the second content image group is moved, in response to a movement command;
- and
- changing a position on the first surface of at least one content image of the first content image group, or a position on the second surface of at least one content image of the second content image group, by the calculated relative movement distance.
A non-transitory storage medium storing therein a program for imposing at least one content image on both surfaces of an output medium, the program enabling a computer to carry out the steps of:
- generating a see-through image in which a second content image group, which is placed on a second surface as one of the both surfaces, is superposed on a first content image group, which is placed on a first surface as another of the both surfaces, so as to be visible therethrough;
- displaying the generated see-through image on a display unit;
- commanding movement of one of the first content image group and the second content image group by designating a position or a mark on the see-through image displayed on the display unit through a user interface;
- calculating a relative movement distance between before and after the movement by which one of the first content image group and the second content image group is moved, in response to a movement command;
- and
- changing a position on the first surface of at least one content image of the first content image group, or a position on the second surface of at least one content image of the second content image group, by the calculated relative movement distance.
