ABSTRACT:
A translated document image production device has an extraction section, a translation section and a region backfill section. The extraction section extracts a group of pixels to be processed, the group of pixels having pixels for constituting a character or a character string. The translation section translates the character or character string. The region backfill section backfills the extracted group of pixels to maintain the background of the translated character or character string and that writes the translated character and character string.
