Abstract
A method and apparatus for creating a plurality of images by a single scanning, the method comprising steps for detecting edge information of at least one image scanned by a scanning process, calculating position information of each image based on the edge information, and creating independent images corresponding to the position information so that it is possible to conveniently obtain a plurality of independent images from a plurality of originals, without repeating a scanning or using an image processing program to divide a scanned picture into a plurality of independent images.
Claims18
A method of creating a plurality of images by a single scanning, the method comprising:
- detecting edge information using scanned data of at least one image scanned by a scanning process;
- calculating position information of each image based on the edge information;
- and
- creating independent images corresponding to the position information.
An apparatus for creating a plurality of images by a single scanning, the apparatus comprising:
- an edge information detecting unit for detecting edge information using scanned data of at least one image scanned by a scanning process;
- a position information calculating unit for calculating position information of each image based on the edge information;
- and
- an independent image creating unit for creating independent images corresponding to the position information.
A method of creating a plurality of images by a single scanning, the method comprising:
- detecting edge information of at least one image scanned by a scanning process;
- calculating position information of each image based on the edge information;
- and
- creating independent images corresponding to the position information by copying images for specific regions defined by the position information to create independent images and designating file names of the independent images.
An apparatus for creating a plurality of images by a single scanning, the apparatus comprising:
- an edge information detecting unit for detecting edge information of at least one image scanned by a scanning process;
- a position information calculating unit for calculating position information of each image based on the edge information;
- and
- an independent image creating unit for creating independent images corresponding to the position information, wherein the independent image creating unit comprises an image copy unit for copying images for specific regions defined by the position information to create independent images and a file name designating unit for designating file names of the independent images.
