Abstract

Official abstract text for this publication.

An image processing device includes an image reading part for reading an image of a document and generating image data, a preview image creation part for creating preview image from the image data generated by the image reading part, a display part capable of displaying at least one part of the preview image, an operation input part for receiving input in response to operation made by a user, a display area determination part for determining a part specified in response to operation made through the operation input part as a displaying area of the preview image, and a display control part for extracting an image responsive to the displaying area from the preview image and for displaying the extracted image on the display part. So, a load for user's operation for preview of an image read from a document may be reduced, and page update and others may be executed efficiently by reducing time to preview display.
