ABSTRACT:
A facsimile machine contains a first memory for temporarily storing image data supplied from a reception unit; a second memory for temporarily storing record data produced by a decoding unit; and a memory unoccupied area amount detection unit for detecting at least one of the amount of unoccupied memory area in the first memory and the amount of unoccupied memory area in the second memory. The machine also has a compulsory reducing unit, which converts the record data representative of an image of each of at least one page of document into reduced record data representative of an image reduced from the image of the corresponding page at a predetermined reduction rate, when at least one of the first memory unoccupied area amount and the second memory unoccupied area amount detected by the memory unoccupied area amount detection unit is equal to or less than corresponding one of first and second predetermined threshold values.
