Then, it is determined whether each of a plurality of obtained document images is similar to a reference image. When a document image is determined as being similar to a reference image, an image identifier that identifies the reference image is selected from among a plurality of image identifiers. Then, a type identifier is identified that contains the selected image identifier. Then, document images each similar to a reference image are classified for each identified type identifier.
