In this case, if the table reference pointer is less than the number of image text record information counted in S22 in S36, 1 is added to the table reference pointer and the process returns to S26. That is, if the table reference pointer and the number of pieces of image text record information counted in S22 match, the addition process is not performed because it indicates the last page of the image information text.

On the other hand, in S35, if the instruction from the operator is not the next page icon 313 instruction, S37.
Proceed to step 3 and the instruction from the operator is the classification name registration icon 31.
4 is instructed, and if so, a classification name registration process is performed in S38, and after the registration process is completed, the process returns to S27 to redisplay the classification name in the classification display area. On the other hand, if the instruction from the operator is not the classification name registration icon 314 instruction in S37, the process proceeds to S39, and the instruction from the operator is the end icon 3 of the document organization submenu.
40 is determined, and if so, S40
, The management file 1 that has been changed in the processing so far
07 and the classification name file 108 are updated via the management data recording / reproducing unit 109, and the classification change processing ends. or,
The highlighted display part of "classification change" shown in the upper right part of FIG. 5 is erased.

On the other hand, if the instruction from the operator is not the end icon 340 of the document organization submenu in S39, the process returns to S29 and waits again for the operator's instruction. In the above description, in the present embodiment, the classification processing is performed after the image text information is once stored in the recording medium 3.
The same effect can be obtained by performing the classification process when recording the image text information on the recording medium 3. Further, the input instructing means is not limited to the keyboard or the mouse of this embodiment, but may be any pen input device, digitizer or the like capable of inputting.

As described above, in the present embodiment, when the image text information accumulated on the recording medium or the temporary storage memory is classified, the image text information and the classification information for classification are displayed simultaneously. The operator can sort and organize the image text information while fully grasping the contents of the image text information, and detailed classification can be performed.
