Abstract

An information processing apparatus includes a transmission unit that performs facsimile transmission to a destination and a changing unit that changes, in accordance with a language registered in the information processing apparatus, size of a certain area, in which characters including source characters for identifying a facsimile source are to be formed, of a sheet output at the destination as a result of the facsimile transmission in a height direction of the characters.

First claim

What is claimed is:

1. An information processing apparatus comprising:
a transmission unit that performs facsimile transmission to a destination; and
a changing unit that changes, in accordance with a language registered in the information processing apparatus, size of a certain area, in which characters including source characters for identifying a facsimile source are to be formed, of a sheet output at the destination as a result of the facsimile transmission in a height direction of the characters.

2. The information processing apparatus according to claim 1 ,
wherein the changing unit changes the size of the certain area in the height direction of the characters in accordance with a display language set for the information processing apparatus.

3. The information processing apparatus according to claim 1 ,
wherein the changing unit changes the size of the certain area in the height direction of the characters in accordance with a language of one of the characters.

4. The information processing apparatus according to claim 2 ,
wherein the changing unit changes the size of the certain area in the height direction of the characters in accordance with a language of one of the characters.

5. The information processing apparatus according to claim 3 ,
wherein the changing unit changes the size of the certain area in the height direction of the characters in accordance with a language of a character that requires a greatest height among languages of the characters.

6. The information processing apparatus according to claim 4 ,
wherein the changing unit changes the size of the certain area in the height direction of the characters in accordance with a language of a character that requires a greatest height among languages of the characters.

7. The information processing apparatus according to claim 3 , further comprising:
a removal unit that removes, from each of the characters, a part irrelevant to identification of a meaning of the character,
wherein the changing unit changes the size of the certain area in the height direction of the characters in accordance with the size of each of the characters from which the part has been removed.

8. The information processing apparatus according to claim 4 , further comprising:
a removal unit that removes, from each of the characters, a part irrelevant to identification of a meaning of the character,
wherein the changing unit changes the size of the certain area in the height direction of the characters in accordance with the size of each of the characters from which the part has been removed.

9. The information processing apparatus according to claim 5 , further comprising:
a removal unit that removes, from each of the characters, a part irrelevant to identification of a meaning of the character,
wherein the changing unit changes the size of the certain area in the height direction of the characters in accordance with the size of each of the characters from which the part has been removed.

10. The information processing apparatus according to claim 6 , further comprising:
a removal unit that removes, from each of the characters, a part irrelevant to identification of a meaning of the character,
wherein the changing unit changes the size of the certain area in the height direction of the characters in accordance with the size of each of the characters from which the part has been removed.

11. The information processing apparatus according to claim 1 , further comprising:
a display control unit that displays, on a display unit, a recommended value of the size of the certain area in the height direction of the characters in accordance with a language of the characters registered by the user.

12. The information processing apparatus according to claim 2 , further comprising:
a display control unit that displays, on a display unit, a recommended value of the size of the certain area in the height direction of the characters in accordance with a language of the characters registered by the user.

13. The information processing apparatus according to claim 3 , further comprising:
a display control unit that displays, on a display unit, a recommended value of the size of the certain area in the height direction of the characters in accordance with a language of the characters registered by the user.

14. The information processing apparatus according to claim 4 , further comprising:
a display control unit that displays, on a display unit, a recommended value of the size of the certain area in the height direction of the characters in accordance with a language of the characters registered by the user.

15. The information processing apparatus according to claim 5 , further comprising:
a display control unit that displays, on a display unit, a recommended value of the size of the certain area in the height direction of the characters in accordance with a language of the characters registered by the user.

16. The information processing apparatus according to claim 6 , further comprising:
a display control unit that displays, on a display unit, a recommended value of the size of the certain area in the height direction of the characters in accordance with a language of the characters registered by the user.

17. The information processing apparatus according to claim 1 , further comprising:
a position changing unit that changes, in the height direction of the characters in accordance with the size of the certain area, a position on the sheet at which an image transmitted to the destination as a result of the facsimile transmission is to be formed and at which an image other than the characters is to be formed.

18. The information processing apparatus according to claim 2 ,
wherein the changing unit sets a reference height as the size of the certain area in accordance with the display language set for the information processing apparatus and changes, if the characters include a character in a language that requires a height greater than the reference height, the size of the certain area in the height direction of the characters in accordance with the language that requires the height greater than the reference height.

19. A non-transitory computer readable medium storing a program causing a computer provided for an apparatus that performs facsimile transmission to execute a process, the process comprising:
performing the facsimile transmission to a destination; and
changing, in accordance with a language registered in the apparatus, size of a certain area, in which characters including source characters for identifying a facsimile source are to be formed, of a sheet output at the destination as a result of the facsimile transmission in a height direction of the characters.
