Image processing apparatus, non-transitory storage medium, and image processing method

A non-transitory computer-readable storage medium storing a program to cause an image processing apparatus to perform a method, the method comprising:

• designating a mode in repeat layout processing;
• detecting a document area by performing image analysis processing on a scanned image, and acquiring an inclination-corrected document image by performing extraction and inclination correction of a document image based on the detected document area;
• determining a position of an initial repeat target area based on the acquired inclination-corrected document image and the designated mode, displaying the inclination-corrected document image and a frame indicating the determined position of the initial repeat target area, and displaying a repeat target area designation screen to change a position of the frame indicating the repeat target area based on an instruction by a user;
• generating an output image after the repeat layout processing by repeatedly laying out, in a designated sheet size, an image of the repeat target area determined based on the frame set on the repeat target area designation screen;
• and
• performing control to perform print processing using the output image after the repeat layout processing.
