ABSTRACT:
A document includes a region with a high character recognition ratio, and that with not so high a character recognition ratio. Hence, even when identical types of information are provided because they have the same attribute, it is hard to say that satisfactory information provision can be made. Also, different kinds of information are required depending on output methods. To solve these problems, output information to be output for each region is determined based on information of an output destination of a document image and attributes of respective regions in the document image, and pieces of output information to be output are combined to be output to the output destination. The output information to be output for each region may be determined based on the information of the output destination of the document image, the attributes of the respective regions in the document image, and user's authority information.
