Abstract
An image processing apparatus includes a reading unit, an acquiring unit, a color information extracting unit, a storage unit, an image extracting unit, and an image generating unit. The reading unit reads an image on a sheet. The acquiring unit acquires image data from the image read by the reading unit. The color information extracting unit extracts color information from the image data. The storage unit stores specific color information. The image extracting unit extracts second image data surrounded by a line with the specific color information in first image data that the acquiring unit acquires from an image on a first sheet which is read by the reading unit. The image generating unit generates third image data based on the second image data.
Claims17
An image processing apparatus comprising:
- reader configured to read an image on a sheet;
- a processor configured to acquire image data from the image read by the reader;
- the processor configured to extract color information from the image data;
- a storage memory configured to store specific color information;
- the processor configured to extract second image data surrounded by a line with the specific color information in first image data that the processor acquires from a first image area on a first sheet which is read by the reader, the first image area on the first sheet designated by at least one first marking in a specific color;
- the processor configured to generate third image data based on the second image data, the third image data corresponding to a second image area designated by at least one second marking in the same specific color as the at least one first marking;
- and
- a printer configured to print a second image based on the third image data on a region of a sheet corresponding to the second image area.
An image processing method comprising:
- reading an image on a sheet;
- acquiring first image data from the image read;
- extracting color information from the first image data;
- extracting second image data surrounded by a line with specific color information in the first image data acquired from a first image area on a first sheet which is read, the first image area on the first sheet designated by at least one first marking in a specific color;
- generating third image data based on the second image data, the third image data corresponding to a second image area designated by at least one second marking in the same specific color as the at least one first marking;
- and
- printing a second image based on the third image data on a region of a sheet corresponding to the second image area.
