Abstract
An image processing apparatus includes a platen, a fixed-document detection unit, a determination unit, and a processing-target selection unit. The determination unit determines whether the document on the platen is a left document or not when the document on the document tray and the document on the platen are detected, upon acceptance of the document-reading-starting instruction by the instruction accepting unit. The processing-target selection unit sets image data obtained by a conveyed-document reading unit as a processing target when the determination unit determines that the document on the platen is the left document, and inquires which image data obtained by the conveyed-document reading unit and a fixed-document reading unit, to be set as the processing target of the user when the determination unit determines that the document on the platen is not the left document.
