Abstract

An image processing system includes an information processing apparatus and an image forming apparatus that are connected via a network. The information processing apparatus receives inputs designating scan setting and a layout method, and transmits the scan setting and the layout method to the image forming apparatus. The image forming apparatus reads an original document according to the scan setting, outputs image data, extracts a content from the image data according to the layout method, and transmits the content to the information processing apparatus. The information processing apparatus determines, according to the layout method, a layout of the content on a page, arranges the content on the page according to the layout, and generates the drawing data. The image forming apparatus forms an image on a sheet of paper corresponding to the page according to drawing data.
