An image processing system make it possible to easily for electronizing
paper documents can read a large quantity of manuscripts with image
processing apparatuses to generate images. The system has multi function
peripherals (MFP). One of the MFPs (combination destination) can send a
management table for managing image data to another MFP (transmission
source), which designates an image data combination position, generates a
management table for managing the image data of the transmission source
MFP, generates a management table, in which the management table of the
transmission source is added to the management table of the combination
destination, and transfers the image data of the transmission source MFP
and the management tables to the combination destination MEP, which
combines the image data of the transmission source MFP and the image data
of the combination destination MFP based on the management tables and the
combination position.
