Abstract

An image processing apparatus and corresponding methods which include a means for determining whether image information of documents read by an image reader can be entirely stored in a storage device prior to performing image processing. The apparatus comprises, in part, an arithmetic operation component which calculates the number of sheets of the documents, (the image information of which are supplied through an image input device such as a scanner so as to be stored in a compressed state) corresponding to the residual storage capacity of a storage device. The apparatus also includes a display device for displaying the number calculated by the arithmetic operation component.
