Image processing apparatus

Abstract

An image read by an image reader is rendered into binary data and then is stored in a document reading memory. In accordance with the color information provided to the document by a color marker which is stored in the document reading memory, a document image subjected to image processing is displayed on a color LCD. The user can check the color LCD before printing by a printer, such that photocopying by mistake and the like can be prevented.

What is claimed is:  
     
         1 . An image processing apparatus, comprising: 
 storing means for storing the correlation between a plurality of colors of markers for providing a mark on a document and content of editing processes set for the colors of the markers respectively; and    a printer for printing out a list of correlation between the plurality of colors of the markers and content of editing processes set for the colors of the markers respectively stored by said storing means.    
     
     
         2 . The image processing apparatus according to  claim 1 , further including a display for displaying a list of correlation between the plurality of colors of the markers and content of editing processes set for the colors of the markers respectively stored by said storing means.  
     
     
         3 . The image processing apparatus according to  claim 1 , further including changing means for changing the correlation between the plurality of colors of the markers and content of editing processes set for the colors of the markers respectively.  
     
     
         4 . An image processing apparatus, comprising: 
 storing means for storing a changed correlation between a plurality of colors of markers for providing a mark on a document and content of editing processes set for the colors of the markers respectively; and    a printer for printing out a list of the changed correlation between the plurality of colors of the markers and content of editing processes set for the colors of the markers respectively stored by said storing means.    
     
     
         5 . The image processing apparatus of  claim 4 , further comprising: 
 means for changing a correlation between at least one of a plurality of colors of markers for providing a mark on a document and content of editing processes set for the colors of the markers respectively, to produce the changed correlation.    
     
     
         6 . An image processing method, comprising the steps of: 
 changing a correlation between at least one of a plurality of colors of markers for providing a mark on a document and content of editing processes set for the colors of the markers respectively, to produce a changed correlation;    storing the changed correlation; and    printing out a list of the changed correlation between the plurality of colors of the markers and content of editing processes set for the colors of the markers respectively stored by said storing step.    
     
     
         7 . An image processing apparatus, comprising: 
 storing means for storing the correlation between a plurality of colors of markers for providing a mark on a document and content of editing processes set for the colors of the markers respectively; and    an output unit for outputting a list of correlation between the plurality of colors of the markers and content of editing processes set for the colors of the markers respectively stored by said storing means.    
     
     
         8 . The image processing apparatus according to  claim 7 , wherein said output unit includes a display for displaying a list of correlation between the plurality of colors of the markers and content of editing processes set for the colors of the markers respectively stored by said storing means.  
     
     
         9 . The image processing apparatus according to  claim 7 , further including changing means for changing the correlation between the plurality of colors of the markers and content of editing processes set for the colors of the markers respectively.
