Claims24
An image communication apparatus adapted to transmit image information with additional information appended thereto, comprising:
- means for designating a position to which the additional information is to be appended;
- and
- means for transmitting the image information with the additional information appended to a leading portion or a side of the image information in accordance with a designation by said designating means,
- wherein, when an original image of a first standard size having a length is to be transmitted as image information in a format of a second standard size having a width greater than the length of the first standard size, said transmitting means transmits the image information in a rotated orientation as rotated image information, with the additional information being appended to a side of the rotated image information so that a size of the rotated image information with the additional information appended thereto does not exceed the second standard size.
A method of image communication adapted to transmit image information with additional information appended thereto, comprising the steps of:
- designating a position to which the additional information is to be appended;
- and
- transmitting the image information with the additional information appended to a leading portion or side of the image information in accordance with said designation,
- wherein, when an original image of a first standard size having a length is to be transmitted as image information in a format of a second standard size having a width greater than the length of the first standard size, the image information is transmitted in a rotated orientation as rotated image information, with the additional information being appended to a side of the rotated image information so that a size of the rotated image information with the additional information appended thereto does not exceed the second standard size.
An image communication apparatus for transmitting image information with additional information appended thereto, comprising:
- means for designating a position to which the additional information is to be appended;
- means for selecting whether the additional information is to be appended to a leeding portion of the image information or to a side of the image information, in accordance with a designation by said designating means;
- and
- means for transmitting the image information with the additional information appended to the leading portion or the side of the image information in accordance with a selection by said selecting means.
A method of image communication for transmitting image information with additional information appended thereto, comprising the steps of:
- designating a position to which the additional information is to be appended;
- selecting whether the additional information is to be appended to a leading portion of the image information or to a side of the image information in the designating step;
- and
- transmitting the image information with the additional information appended to the leading portion or the side of the image information in accordance with a designation in said designating step.
