Abstract
In an information processing apparatus, object data based on a part of, e.g., a scan image is extracted and the extracted object data is stored in relation to attribute information of the relevant object data. The object data correlated to the attribute information, which matches with a search condition input by a user, is searched for, and the object data found through the search is merged to another object data depending on a characteristic of the user. The merged object data are displayed as a search result. In such a control process, different search results are displayed when users having different user characteristics input the same search condition.
