[0074] Fig. 2 is a flowchart illustrating the SCAN TO PCC procedure. The SCAN TO PCC program is a program for scanning an original image to generate image data in a predetermined format, and storing the image data (scanned data) in the external memory 137 .
[0075] At S1, the SCAN TO PCC program is started.
[0076] In S2, it is judged whether external memory 137 is connected to MFP 100 or not. If the external memory 137 is connected (S2: YES), the control system goes to S3. If the external memory 137 is not connected to the MFP 100 (S2: NO), the control system goes to S4.
[0077] At S3, it is judged whether or not the remaining capacity of the external memory 137 (ie, capacity for re-storing data) is larger than a predetermined capacity Ca. If the remaining capacity is equal to or greater than the predetermined capacity Ca (S3: YES), the control system goes to S5. If the remaining capacity is smaller than the predetermined capacity Ca (S3: NO), the control system goes t...

[0173] FIG. 12A is a block diagram schematically showing the arrangement of an MFP 200 according to the second embodiment, and FIG. 12B schematically shows the structure of the keyboard 209 of the MFP 200 shown in FIG. 12A. The MFP 200 has an image reading function (scanning function), and can scan an image through the original reading unit 206 according to an instruction input by the user via the keyboard 209 and then store image data representing the scanned image into an external memory (218, 219 or 220 )Inside. In this case, new image data may be added at the end of the file having a predetermined document type format. It should be noted that the document-like format refers to a format having multiple pages in a single file, and data can be added in the same file as a new page in the document-like format.
[0174] Similar to the first embodiment, image data may include, for example, JPEG, GIF, TIFF, PNG (Portable Network Graphics), BMP data. As an example of, but not lim...

[0219] A third embodiment is described with reference to FIGS. 22 to 26 .
[0220] FIG. 22 is a flowchart illustrating the SCAN TO PCC program (ie, the main program) of the MFP 200 according to the third embodiment. FIG. 23 is a flowchart illustrating a PDF specifying procedure and FIG. 24 shows a display screen for specifying a PDF file. FIG. 25 is a flowchart illustrating an image data restorage procedure and FIG. 26 is a flowchart illustrating a second name input procedure.
[0221] Step S2113 is similar to S203 in FIG. 13 , and its description is omitted. At S2114, a subroutine of the PDF specifying program is called. In this PDF specifying program, if there are a plurality of PDF files in the external memory 218 or the internal memory 204a, the user will specify a PDF file, and new image data will be added to the file.
[0222] In S2131 of FIG. 23 , a plurality of PDF files stored in the external storage 218 or the internal storage 204 a are listed on the LCD 208 , as ...
