Abstract
An image reading system includes an information processing apparatus and a scanner connected to the information processing apparatus via a network. Upon receiving input of information that specifies the number of pages to be included in a file through an input unit and a web browser, the information processing apparatus transmits the information through a first communication unit to the scanner. The scanner reads image data through a reading unit, and divides the image data into files based on the information through a data management unit. The scanner transmits the files to the information processing apparatus through a second communication unit. The information processing apparatus displays images of the files on a monitor.
