ABSTRACT:
The present invention provides an image processing apparatus, an image processing method and a recording medium for positioning a facial region at a predetermined position in a trimming region at a predetermined size ratio. A position of a top-of-head portion of a person in an image is detected. A vertical direction position of a chin of the person is estimated. A vertical direction position and a size of the trimming region is designated such that a vertical direction size ratio of an overhead region/the facial region/an under-jaw region is a predetermined ratio determined for each type of ID photo. A horizontal direction position and the size of the trimming region are designated such that the aspect ratio of the trimming region coincides an aspect ratio corresponding to the type of identification. The designated trimming region is overlayed on the image and displayed.
