Abstract

A sample image and a folder name of a selected saving destination folder are obtained, and character recognition processing is performed on the sample image to obtain character strings. When it is determined that the same character string as the folder name of the saving destination folder exists among the obtained character strings, an area where the same character string is detected as an enlargement area, and the identified enlargement area, the sample image, and the folder name are registered while being associated with one another. When a target image on which distribution processing is performed is obtained, a sample image similar to the obtained target image is identified, and an enlargement area registered while being associated with the identified sample image is identified. An area of the target image corresponding to the enlargement area identified by the identification unit is enlarged and displayed on a folder specification screen.
