Abstract

After image data received from a facsimile on the transmission side through a public telephone circuit was stored into a disk, the image data is read out from the disk, index information is added to the image data, and the resultant data is preserved into an image file apparatus through an external interface, thereby enabling the image data received by a facsimile apparatus to be searched in the image file apparatus.
