ABSTRACT:
A server is connected to an Ethernet port via a network and is further connected to a copier via video interface ports. The server is capable of subjecting image data read in by the copier or obtained from the network to processing for character recognition, coding and translation by a character recognition circuit, image coding/decoding circuit and translating circuit. Furthermore, image data is capable of being generated by a page-description-language interpreter based upon data, which is in the format of page description language, received from the network. Conversely, a character in the image data is capable of being recognized, coded and converted into page description language so that the amount of data sent to the network can be reduced.
