There is disclosed an information processing apparatus which can minimize the probability of a partner being incapable of referring to data at a link destination when a structured document is transmitted to another apparatus or application or the risk of transmission of data unnecessary for the partner, suppress any wasteful data transmission, and properly cope with the intention of the manager of the apparatus or the creator of the structured document about the data transmission. In this information processing apparatus, data at a link destination is embedded in document data, and the document data is transmitted to another apparatus. In transmitting the document data, it is determined whether to transmit the document data after the data at the link destination is embedded in it.

A plural-communication-line-containing apparatus capable of containing plural communication lines comprises: a communication-line-type discriminator for discriminating a type of communication line; a communication-line-number counter for counting the number of communication lines for each type of communication line; a communication-line-name determiner for determining a communication line name on the basis of the discriminated type of communication line and the counted number of communication lines; and a communication-line-name display for displaying the determined communication line name. Thus, in the plural-communication-line-containing apparatus capable of being connected with the plural communication lines, the names of the communication lines can be appropriately displayed and an operator can easily discriminate the communication lines.

An image forming apparatus processes data described in a predetermined descriptive language. A module interprets a storage location of image data of an image described according to the predetermined descriptive language and a module obtains the image data based on the interpreted storage location. A reading module reads and obtains image forming information that includes image trimming information. Another module interprets the image forming information obtained by the reading module, including interpreting the image trimming information. A processing module renders an image forming processing, including a trimming processing, on the image data based on the interpreted image forming information, and the trimming processing is executed prior to execution of any of a flipping processing, a rotation processing, and an image aspect ratio maintaining processing.

After a display on a display unit is changed to a copy stand by screen, until an operation regarding a copy function is performed by use of an operation unit, the apparatus status regarding a facsimile function and the apparatus status regarding the copy function are displayed on the copy stand by screen to be displayed on the display unit. After the operation regarding the copy function is performed by use of the operation unit, only the apparatus status regarding the copy function is displayed on the copy standby screen.

There is described a facsimile device which includes a first transmitting device that transmits previously stored communication information of a receiving device to the receiving device; and, in response to such transmission, the receiving device compares that communication information with its own communication information. When the comparison shows a difference, a second transmitting device, which is associated with the receiving device, transmits new communication information back to the first transmitting device; and, in response to this, the first transmitting device updates the stored communication information.

In a data communication apparatus, when performing a calling operation, an image transmission speed is assigned using a CCITT nonstandard reception command NSS after transmitting a dial signal, and the NSS is repeatedly transmitted at a predetermined time interval. Upon reception of a reception-preparation-confirming signal transmitted from an apparatus of a communication partner, a command, an identification signal and image data are transmitted at the image transmission speed based on information relating to the communication partner's apparatus which has been stored, so that the time required for communication procedures is shortened.

Data communication apparatus

A communication device includes a storage medium for storing a program and information used to detect any error in the program, to prevent the communication device from further abnormal operation when an error occurs in the stored program. The occurrence of an error in the program is detected by performing a calculation based on the stored program, and comparing the result of the calculation with the above-described information stored in the storage medium. A predetermined operation is further performed depending on the result of the comparison.
