ABSTRACT:
One unit of image/text information (a card) is formed from image information, which is for displaying respective ones of N--number of images, and text information, and a large number of cards are stored in a memory device to construct a data base. When search conditions such as a desired keyword or numerical range have been entered, at least one card which satisfies the search conditions is searched and retrieved from the data base by referring to the text information of each card. First images from each of the cards retrieved are reduced in size and then combined, the reduced and combined images obtained are displayed on a display device, and a desired item of image/text information is selected from the reduced and combined images.
