Abstract
A plurality of image regions in the image of the original document are determined on the basis of the image data of the original document.

With use of the display, the user specifies at least one point in the image of the original document in order to specify one region. On the basis of the coordinates of the position specified by the user and the relative positions of the image regions, the image region corresponding to the specified position is determined as the specified region. The image in the specified region is then subjected to the image process desired by the user.
