Abstract

An electronic filing system includes a front page generating part for generating an image of a front page with respect to a designated station, an input part for inputting attribute data of each of data blocks in the image of the front page, so that the attribute data is stored in an image storage part, a character data storage part for storing a set of character strings with respect to each of external stations, and a control part for fetching a set of character strings with respect to the designated station from the character data storage part when an image is transmitted to a designated station, for generating output image data from each of the fetched character strings on the basis of the attribute data, and for generating an output image of the front page by allocating the output image data to the data blocks, so that the output image of the front page is transmitted to the designated station as a first page of the image of the document being transmitted.
