Abstract
Abstract A document processing system includes an input section (1), a memory section (2, 3), a text analyzing section (4, 5, 6), an image identifying section (8, 5, 6), an image size identifying section (9), a layout processing section (10, 11), and an output section (12). Document data is constituted by text data and image data. The text data includes key information corresponding to the image data, and the image data is laid out in the document data. The text data and image data input through the input section (1) are stored in the memory section (2) The text analyzing section (4, 5, 6) identifies a position in the document data at which the image data is to be laid out, based on a position of key information in the text data. The image identifying section (8, 5, 6) identifies image data corresponding to the key information. The image size identifying section (9) identifies an image size of the image data identified by the image identifying section (8, 5, 6). The layout processing section (10, 11) lays out the identified image data at the identified image layout position in accordance with a predetermined layout rule.
