Abstract

When an original is scanned by a scanning apparatus and the corresponding one or more page images are generated and temporarily stored in a storage unit of the scanning apparatus, these page images are sent to a display device for preview. As a new replacement sheet is detected by the scanning apparatus when one of the page images is currently previewed on the screen of the display device, the page image stored in the storage unit and currently previewed on the screen is replaced by a new page image of the replacement sheet. Finally, all the page images temporarily stored in the storage unit are outputted as an output file.
