A method for reproducing images comprises the steps of: obtaining 1to Nscan images in order, where N is a positive integer greater than 2; processing the 1to Nscan images into 1to Ndocument images and obtaining sizes of the 1to Ndocument images; and performing an ordered document typesetting according to an ordered accumulated size of the 1to Ndocument images to generate image data corresponding to one or multiple output pages. An image-processing apparatus is also provided. Thus, it is possible to prevent the waste of printing a small-size document image on a large-size sheet, and the user can obtain the order of documents according to the order of the output pages. So, an instinctive and environment protective copying technical solution can be provided, and an output result can be further adjusted.

Method for reproducing images and image-processing apparatus using the method

A scan copying apparatus having a frame-cropping function includes a user interface, a zone-creating unit, an optical scanning module and a processor. In a frame-cropping copy mode, a user inputs, through the user interface, a set of geometric parameters corresponding to a selected scan area of an original. The zone-creating unit, electrically connected to the user interface, receives the set of geometric parameters and creates a cropping frame corresponding to the set of geometric parameters. The optical scanning module scans the selected scan area of the original, according to the cropping frame, to generate a cropping scan signal. The processor, electrically connected to the user interface, the zone-creating unit and the optical scanning module, controls operations of the user interface, the zone-creating unit and the optical scanning module, and processes the cropping scan signal into a cropping print signal.
