Apparatus and system for image processing based on extracted image portion

An image processing system, comprising:

• an image processing apparatus;
• and
• an image recording apparatus, wherein
• the image processing apparatus comprises:
• image reading means for reading an image of a document that includes an original image portion and an additional image portion overlapping each other;
• image processing means for forming a processing image based on the image read by the image reading means;
• and
• extracting means for extracting the additional image portion from the image read by the image reading means, wherein
• the image processing means forms the processing in accordance with the forming condition based on the additional image portion extracted by the extracting means;
• and
• the processing image formed by the image processing means corresponds to the original image portion obtained by removing the additional image portion extracted by the extracting means from the image of a document read by the image reading means;
• and
• the image recording apparatus comprises:
• adding means for adding an image for the additional image portion onto the sheet.

An image processing, comprising:

• an image reading unit that reads an image of a document that includes an original image portion and an additional image portion overlapping each other;
• and
• an image processing unit that forms a processing image based on the image read by the image reading unit;
• and
• a controller that extracts the additional image portion from the image read by the image reading unit,
• wherein the additional image portion represents a forming condition for forming the processing image by the image processing unit,
• the image processing unit forms the processing in accordance with the forming condition based on the extracted additional image portion, and
• the processing image formed by the image processing unit corresponds to the original image portion obtained by removing the extracted additional image portion from the image of a document read by the image reading unit.
