Abstract:
1. An information processing device comprising: a communication unit which communicates with, via a network, a first document scanning device having a first type of scanning and a second document scanning device having a second type of scanning, image data generated by the first and the second document scanning devices having different recognizable directions corresponding to the first and the second type of scanning; an image data receiving unit which receives, via the communication unit, image data of each page of a double-sided document generated by one of the first document scanning device and the second document scanning device; a document binding information input unit which receives document binding information input by a user as information for specifying whether the double-sided document is a long edge document or a short edge document; a recognizable direction adjustment information generating unit which generates recognizable direction adjustment information, based on both of (A) whether the received image data is generated by the first document scanning device having the first type of scanning or the second document scanning device having the second type of scanning, and (B) whether the inputted document binding information specifies the long edge document or the short edge document; and a vertical inversion unit which vertically inverts the image data corresponding to a back page based on the recognizable direction adjustment information generated by the recognizable direction adjustment information generating unit.
