CONSTITUTION:When the character code string, which is the confirmed result of the whole character field, at a confirmed result storing and sending means 7, a data check means 8 executes a prescribed data check and confirms the justice of the character code string. When it is not justice, a field image segmenting means 9 segments field picture data 91 to correspond to the character field from a picture data storing means 4 based on a field position parameter stored to a document format defining information storing means 2 in advance and stores the data to the segmented and confirmed result storing and sending means 7. Next, an operation display means 10 successively reads binary picture data 51 and the field picture data 91, which are stored to a read result storing means 11, and urges an operator to execute a confirmation and a correction by displaying the data.
