Abstract: An image reading device includes a reading member and a skew detector. The reading member reads an image of a passing document at a read position preset in a document transport path. The skew detector detects a skew of the document by selecting one of a first skew detection mode and a second skew detection mode based on information that specifies a method for detecting the skew of the document. The first skew detection mode is a mode in which the skew of the document relative to a transport direction is detected based on an image of a leading-edge section, in the transport direction, read by the reading member. The second skew detection mode is a mode in which the skew of the document relative to the transport direction is detected based on an entire image read by the reading member.

Abstract: A scanning apparatus for scanning an object includes a casing, a scanning module, at least one sensor, and a control unit. The control unit is electrically connected to the scanning module and the sensor for receiving a detecting signal generated by the sensor so as to actuate the scanning module to scan, and the scanning module then generates a first image of a first scanned page and a second image of a second scanned page. The control unit further includes a recognition unit for recognizing whether the first image along with the second image are continuous. As the recognition unit recognizes the first image and the second image to be discontinuous, the control unit generates an insertion image between the first image and the second image.

Abstract: A user interface is presented to a remote user via a network, such as through a computer. A preview command is received from the user. A scanning process (e.g., scanning multiple photographs simultaneously) is initiated at a scanner coupled with the user's computer, in response to receiving the preview command. The act of initiating is performed from a location remote from the user. A single scanned image is obtained through the scanner. A plurality of crop selections are received from the user, all of which are made within the single scanned image. Several regions within multiple scanned photographs may be selected for cropping. A plurality of image files are created based on the crop selections. The plurality of image files may be created in response to the user clicking just once on a button presented by the user interface.

Abstract: This invention provides an image forming apparatus capable of reliably printing security information even when image data of an original document that is obtained by a reading unit contains security information and an area where the security information is not contained is set as a print area, and a control method thereof. To accomplish this, when image data of an original document contains security information, the image forming apparatus extracts image the security information from data, and sets a print target area from an area indicated by the image data of the original document. When an area corresponding to, from which the security information is extracted, is not contained in the set print target area, the image forming apparatus executes printing using the extracted image data corresponding to the security information, and the image data corresponding to the print target area.

Abstract: A backlit scanner uses an exposure control device to adjust the amount of backlight that reaches the vicinity of the transmissive medium being scanned by the scanner. In this way, the amount of backlight can be controlled on a scan-by-scan basis, depending upon exactly how much backlight will lead to optimal image quality. In some preferred embodiments the backlit scanner is designed to scan x-ray images and/or other transmissive-medium medical images.
