Patent ID: 8120807

Claim:
An information processing apparatus comprising: a to-be-transmitted image memory portion that stores therein a plurality of to-be-transmitted image data and image-data-related information including a transmission order of each of the image data; a to-be-transmitted image display portion that displays a list of the stored to-be-transmitted image data according to the transmission order stored in the to-be-transmitted image memory portion; an image editing portion that edits the transmission order stored in the to-be-transmitted image memory portion to provide and store an edited transmission order in place of any previously stored transmission order; and an image converting portion that combines the to-be-transmitted image data into a single image data when receiving an instruction to transmit image data; wherein when receiving an instruction to edit the transmission order of the displayed list of individual image data, the image editing portion edits the transmission order stored in the to-be-transmitted image memory portion according to the received instruction to provide and store the edited transmission order in place of any previously stored transmission order, wherein the to-be-transmitted image display portion displays a list of the to-be-transmitted image data according to the edited transmission order, and wherein when receiving the instruction to transmit image data, the image converting portion combines the to-be-transmitted image data based on the transmission order currently stored in the to-be-transmitted image memory portion to generate the single image data which is transmitted to an image transmitting apparatus.
