Abstract
According to an embodiment of this invention, in a system including an image reading apparatus and a server, the image reading apparatus and the server can efficiently cooperatively perform image processing with a simple arrangement. More specifically, the image reading apparatus reads an image of an original, upon receiving an image reading instruction from a user terminal via the server, according to the instruction. The apparatus analyzes whether image processing included in the instruction is executable. If executable image processing exists, the apparatus executes the image processing for image data obtained by reading the image of the original. The image data of the original or image data that has undergone the image processing is transmitted to a transmission destination together with information representing whether the image processing included in the instruction has been executed.
