Abstract

See full text

Provided is an image reading system capable of improving the image quality of a document in which text and images are mixed in the same page. A camera captures a document in page units to obtain captured image data. A document reading unit is an image scanner having a higher resolution than the camera. An area classifying unit classifies the captured image data captured by the camera into areas for each content. An area selecting unit selects, for each classified area, whether to output captured image data based on the area classification and the state of the captured image data. An image processing unit processes the captured image data or the scanned image data for each area, and outputs or deletes the data as area data. The document output unit collects the processed area data, reconstructs the data into document data, and outputs the document data.
