An image forming apparatus include a processor configured to: obtain a type of use, a tendency of use, or a use condition of the image forming apparatus by a user; and transmit a log regarding use of the image forming apparatus by the user with the obtained type of use, the obtained tendency of use, or the obtained use condition being distinguishable.

Image forming apparatus, non-transitory computer readable medium, and image forming method

An information processing apparatus includes an extractor, a creator, and a sender. The extractor compares items of capability information concerning plural devices and extracts a capability which is not sufficiently provided in a first device but is provided in a second device. The plural devices include the first and second devices. The creator creates a menu to be used in the first device. The first device is able to display the capability extracted by the extractor by using an icon in a mode different from an icon representing another capability and to display device information which indicates that the capability is available in the second device. The sender sends the menu to the first device.

Information processing apparatus and non-transitory computer readable medium

An information processing system includes a processor configured to analyze an obtained document, the processor being configured to: obtain plural documents where information to be shared by plural participants is recorded; calculate a degree of similarity in details in units of blocks between different documents, the blocks being blocks of sentences included in the documents; determine an execution order of executing work of sharing details of each of the blocks on the basis of the degree of similarity; and allocate work time for performing the work of sharing details of each of the blocks on the basis of a number of characters in each of the blocks.

Information processing system

An information processing apparatus includes a first-information acquiring section, a transmitting section, a second-information acquiring section, and a storage. The first-information acquiring section acquires first image information which is read by a reading apparatus. In response to the first image information which is acquired by the first-information acquiring section and which indicates that the reading apparatus is permitted to perform a reading operation, the transmitting section transmits instruction information to the reading apparatus. The instruction information indicates that the reading apparatus be permitted to perform the reading operation. The second-information acquiring section acquires second image information which is read by the reading apparatus in accordance with the instruction information. The storage stores the second image information in association with the first image information.

Information processing apparatus, image reading system, and computer-readable medium

A document recognizing system in which a document-forming work station coupled with a scanner, a file station for storing image data, and a recognition work station for recognizing a document image are interconnected through a network. In the document recognizing system, the character image data entered from the scanner is transferred to the file station through the document-forming work station, and the recognition result of the character image data by the recognition work station is also transferred to the file station and stored therein, allowing the operator to read out a necessary recognition result at the time of forming a desired document in the document-forming work station.
