And the display part 130 displays the file transmission screen produced | generated by the process of step S21 (step S22).

  FIG. 8 is a diagram showing an example of the file transmission screen D4 displayed on the display unit 130. As shown in FIG. The file transmission screen D4 is an e-mail transmission screen, and includes a TO destination input field d13 for receiving an instruction for inputting a TO destination, a CC destination input field d14 for receiving an input instruction for a CC destination, and an input instruction for a BCC destination. A BCC destination input field d15 for receiving a subject, a subject input field d16 for receiving a subject input instruction, a file name input field d17 for receiving a file name of image data as an attached file, and an input instruction for a mail text A mail text input field d18 is provided.

  In the TO destination input field d13, CC destination input field d14, subject name input field d16, and file name input field d17, each text detected by the marker detection unit 105 by the process of step S12 is input in advance. Thus, even if the user does not input the image data transmission destination or file name using the operation unit 150 or the like, the image data transmission destination or file name can be designated by marking with the marker pen.

  Returning to FIG. 3, when the operation reception unit 103 receives a transmission instruction (YES in step S <b> 23), the marker processing unit 106 sets the transmission setting of the data stored in the storage unit 160 to “a page where a marker is detected”. It is determined whether the setting is “transmission excluding” or “setting for transmitting all pages” (step S24).

  FIG. 9 is a diagram illustrating an example of a setting screen displayed on the display unit 130. The operation accepting unit 103 stores the transmission setting according to the selection of the button d20 or d21 provided on the setting screen D5 in the storage unit 160.

  When the transmission setting of the data stored in the storage unit 160 is “setting to transmit except the page in which the marker is detected” (YES in step S24), the marker processing unit 106 is acquired by the image reading unit 110. Of the image data, e-mail data is generated with the image data of the page where the marker is not detected by the marker detection unit 105 as an attached file (step S25). In the example illustrated in FIG. 4, the marker processing unit 106 generates e-mail data using image data from the second page to the sixth page excluding the image data of the first page as an attached file.

  On the other hand, when the transmission setting of the data stored in the storage unit 160 is “setting to transmit all pages” (NO in step S24), all pages of the image data acquired by the image reading unit 110 are regarded as attachment files. The generated e-mail data is generated (step S26).

  When a document marked by the user is used only for specifying a transmission destination and a file name, it is not necessary to transmit image data indicating the document. In this regard, according to the image reading apparatus according to the embodiment of the present invention, it is possible to exclude image data indicating a document used only for designating a transmission destination and a file name from data to be transmitted.

  After the processing of step S25 or S26, the marker processing unit 106 causes the communication unit 170 to send an e-mail (step S27).

  As described above, according to the image reading apparatus according to the embodiment of the present invention, the marker detection unit 105 includes the fifth marker portion marked with the predetermined fifth color on the document and the predetermined first. While detecting the 1st marker location marked by 1 color, the text shown by the said 5th marker location and the 1st marker location is extracted. The marker processing unit 106 transmits image data using the text indicated at the fifth marker location as the file name of the image data and using the text indicated at the first marker location as the transmission destination for transmitting the image data. I do.

  Accordingly, it is possible to transmit image data by designating the image data transmission destination and file name by marking with a marker without inputting the image data transmission destination and file name.

  In addition, the marker processing unit 106 performs processing of transmitting image data as an attached file of an e-mail with the text indicated at the first marker location as the TO destination.

  Thus, when the image data obtained by reading the document is transmitted by e-mail, the user can omit an operation of selecting a file to be attached to the e-mail.

  In addition, the marker processing unit 106 uses the text shown in the second marker portion marked with the predetermined second color as the CC destination of the e-mail and uses the text marked with the predetermined third color. Processing for transmitting image data is performed using the text indicated by the three marker locations as the BCC destination of the e-mail.

  Thereby, it is possible to specify destination attributes such as a TO destination, a CC destination, and a BCC destination by changing the color to be marked by the user.

  In addition, the marker processing unit 106 performs a process of transmitting image data using the text shown in the fourth marker portion marked with a predetermined fourth color as the subject of the e-mail.

  Accordingly, it is possible to transmit the image data by designating the subject of the email by marking with the marker without inputting the subject of the email.

  The present invention is not limited to the configuration of the above embodiment, and various modifications can be made.

<Modification 1>
In the above embodiment, the case where the means for transmitting the image data acquired by reading the document is an e-mail has been described. However, the present invention is not necessarily limited to this case. Image data acquired by reading a document may be transmitted to a storage destination in the storage unit 160.

  In this case, the marker processing unit 106 determines whether the text extracted by the marker detection unit 105 is an e-mail destination or an area name (directory name) in the storage unit 160. Specifically, the marker processing unit 106 analyzes the text indicated by the marker portion marked with the color (red, blue, or green) associated with the mail destination. If the text indicates a character that is considered to be included in an e-mail destination such as an at sign (@), the marker processing unit 106 uses the text extracted by the marker detection unit 105 as the e-mail destination. Judge that there is. On the other hand, when a character considered to be included in a directory name such as a slash mark (/) is indicated in the text, the marker processing unit 106 determines that the text extracted by the marker detection unit 105 is a directory name. .

  When the text extracted by the marker detection unit 105 is an e-mail destination, the marker processing unit 106 performs a process of transmitting an e-mail with the text as an e-mail destination as a process of transmitting image data. .

  On the other hand, when the text extracted by the marker detection unit 105 is a directory name, the marker processing unit 106 performs a process of storing the image data in the area of the directory name as a process of transmitting the image data.

  As described above, according to the image reading apparatus according to the first modification, it is possible to execute the process of storing the image data obtained by the reading in a desired area in the storage unit 160 without inputting the directory name. Become.

<Modification 2>
When the marker detection unit 105 detects a plurality of marker portions, the marker processing unit 106 transmits the image data using a text obtained by combining the texts indicated by the plurality of marker portions as a file name or a subject name of the image data. Processing may be performed.

  For example, in the example illustrated in FIG. 4, when two locations “Monday meeting” and “3 people attend” are marked in yellow, the marker processing unit 106 determines that “Monday meeting” and “ The process of transmitting the image data is performed using “3 people attending” as the subject of the image data, which combines “3 attendees”.

  As described above, according to the image reading apparatus according to the second modification, it is possible to specify a file name and a subject name of image data using a plurality of texts shown at distant positions in a document.

<Modification 3>
In the image reading apparatus according to the third modification, the marker detection unit 105 may further determine whether a page number is indicated on each page of the image data when the marker is detected. For example, in the example shown in FIG. 10, page numbers 1 to 6 are shown at the bottom of each page of the image data a11 to a16.

  When the marker detection unit 105 determines that the page number is indicated, the marker processing unit 106 acquires the image acquired by the image reading unit 110 regardless of the transmission setting of the data stored in the storage unit 160. Generate email data with all data pages as attachments.

  When a continuous page number is assigned to a document, it is unlikely that even a marked document is used only for designating a transmission destination or a file name. According to the image reading apparatus according to the modified example 3, in such a case, in addition to the image data of the unmarked document, the image data of the marked document can be the transmission target.

<Modification 4>
In the image reading apparatus according to the modified example 4, the marker processing unit 106 performs a process of removing the image indicated by the marker portion on the image data of the document from which the marker is detected, thereby obtaining the marker-removed image data. Generate. Specifically, the marker processing unit 106 removes the image indicated at the marker location by superimposing the background image on the image indicated at the marker location. The marker processing unit 106 sets the marker-removed image data as a transmission target in addition to the image data of the unmarked document.

  Even in a marked document, useful information is included in a portion other than the marker portion, and it may be better to set it as a transmission target. According to the image reading apparatus according to the modification example 4, it is possible to set only a portion other than the marker portion as the transmission target in the image data of the document in which the marker is detected.

<Modification 5>
In the above-described embodiment, which marker location (for example, the first marker location or the second marker location) is indicated by the marker detection unit 105 in a different mode in the image data based on the color of the marker. However, the present invention is not necessarily limited to this case. The marker detection unit 105 determines which marker location is the marker location indicated in the image data based on at least one element of the marker color, the marker line type, and the marker thickness. Also good.

  In this case, the storage unit 160 stores the corresponding marker line type (for example, solid line or dotted line) and the marker for each of the e-mail TO destination, CC destination, BCC destination, subject, and image data file name. A table showing the thickness is stored in advance. The marker detection unit 105 performs the above determination process with reference to the table stored in the storage unit 160.

<Modification 6>
In the above embodiment, the case has been described in which the marker processing unit 106 performs processing by extracting text indicating the TO destination, CC destination, BCC destination, subject, and image data file name from the marker location. The invention is not necessarily limited to this case.

  The marker processing unit 106 extracts the text shown in the sixth marker location shown in a different manner from the first marker location to the fifth marker location as the body of the email, and uses the extracted text as the email It is also possible to perform processing for transmitting image data using as the body text.

<Modification 7>
The marker processing unit 106 may transmit the processed image data after performing some processing instead of transmitting the image data acquired by the image reading unit 110 as it is.

  For example, the marker processing unit 106 performs processing for removing the marking indicated by the marker portion detected by the marker detection unit 105 from the image data acquired by the image reading unit 110, and transmits the image data after the removal. Also good.

  In addition, the marker processing unit 106, for the image data acquired by the image reading unit 110, the text indicated at the first marker location is the file name of the image data, and the text indicated at the second marker location is the image. Data (for example, document data or PDF (Portable Document Format) data) to which information indicating a transmission destination of data is added may be generated, and the generated data may be transmitted.
