BOOK DATA GENERATOR AND BOOK DATA GENERATING METHOD

摘要

PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a book data generator that generates book data with a page sequence given by each page from a recording medium where images of pages are printed with page sequence information and to provide a book data generating method. SOLUTION: An input scanner 1 reads recording sheets RM on which page images are printed with page sequence information. Read data RD(n) obtained through read processing of the images are processed by a book data generating section 23 on the basis of print pattern information set by an arranged print pattern setting section 22. The book data generating section 23 comprises a page division section 23a that divides page data PD corresponding to respective page images and of a page sequence provision section 23b that gives a page sequence to the divided page data PD. Thus, the book data generating section 23 outputs book data BD where the page sequence is given to each page.
