Provided an image editing apparatus, image editing method, and a non-transitory computer readable recording medium that can faithfully visualize a degree of a position deviation amount of each page area generated at the time of a post-processing. An image editing apparatus, image editing method, and a non-transitory computer readable recording medium estimates a two-dimensional position deviation amount for each page area which is generated at the time of post-processing with respect to the printed matter based on the post-processing information relating to post-processing included in imposition data. Then, a preview image data indicating the virtual product is created by mapping a page image indicating the page area on the printed matter shifted as much as the deviation amount onto the page area on the virtual product.

Image editing apparatus, image editing method, and non transitory computer readable recording medium for previewing image data

There are provided an imposition apparatus, an imposition method, and a non-transitory computer readable recording medium capable of setting a page box very easily. An instruction to change the relative position (or the relative size) of a frame image with respect to a page image in a preview image and an instruction to stop the change are given. The preview image is updated so that the frame image is in contact with a determined reference position (reference frame or reference line) by performing an additional change when a stop instruction is received.

Page description language data are imposed according to entered imposition information. The imposed page description language data are converted into raster-format data by an RIP process. Page data depending on a plurality of page areas are clipped from the raster-format data. The clipped page data are mapped onto respective model areas corresponding to the page areas on a determined three-dimensional shape model thereby to generate three-dimensional preview data of a print. A three-dimensional preview image of the print is displayed based on the three-dimensional preview data.

A card issuing system that performs personal authentication efficiently and with high accuracy. The card issuing system includes: a personal card reading unit operable to read a face image and personal information from a personal card; an image capturing unit operable to take a face image of a user; a similarity computing unit operable to compute a degree of similarity between the face image read by the personal card reading unit and the face image taken by the image capturing unit; and a display unit operable to display the face image read by the personal card reading unit, the face image taken by the image capturing unit, and the degree of similarity computed by the similarity computing unit side-by-side.

A photo card can be generated easily. An eye position detection unit detects positions of eye centers in a face image, and a normalization unit obtains a normalized face image by normalizing the distance between the positions of eye centers. A cutting unit cuts a card face image by setting a trimming frame having a predetermined standard size in the normalized face image, with reference to the distance between the positions of the eye centers in the normalized face image. A data generation unit generates card data from the card face image and personal information of a user, and a card printer generates the photo card by printing the card data on a blank card.

Apparatus, method and program for generating photo card data

Disclosed herein is an image managing systems for cellular phone users, wherein user registration and management is simplified. When a request for access is received from a cellular phone at a first storage means, the first storage means decodes the phone number of the accessing cellular phone, and a memory portion saves uploaded image data, to which a unique image ID has been assigned by an image ID issuing portion, in a memory area that has been assigned to the phone number. An editing portion of a service implementing portion sends data indicating the storage location (a URL address) and the image ID of an image data specified by the user to be stored permanently to a second storage means. The second storage means downloads, based on the URL address and image ID, and manages the target image data from the first storage means.

Image data management server, image printing server and image service system

Disclosed herein is an image service system that is capable of dividing the service into an images managing service and a printing service while maintaining the convenience to the user. When a printing processing portion of a first managing server or a second managing server receives a print command from a user's mobile phone, the URL indicating the storage location of the image data as well as the printing conditions are sent to a printing server, the printing server and the user are connected, and the printing related processes are performed by the printing server. The printing server prompts the user to enter the printing conditions, ands sends over a network the printing conditions and the image data downloaded from the location indicated by the received URL to a printing apparatus, which prints out the image(s).

When a print order is placed regarding image data, the deadline of printing processing can be estimated accurately. A user reserves the deadline and places the print order from an order reception server, while using a user terminal. A controller sends to a digital mini-laboratory the image data and order information that were sent from the user terminal so as to complete the printing processing at the reserved time. The digital mini-laboratory carries out the printing processing on the image data, and prints are generated.
