DOCUMENT MANAGEMENT SYSTEM, DOCUMENT MANAGEMENT SERVER, AND DOCUMENT MANAGEMENT METHOD FOR AUTOMATICALLY PRESENTING MODIFIED PART OF RELATED DOCUMENT DATA
Provided is a document management system that automatically presents a modified part of related document data. The modified document acquiring unit acquires modified document data that has been modified. The related document acquiring unit selects and acquires related document data for the modified document data acquired by the modified document acquiring unit from a plurality of document data. The question generating unit generates a question sentence from a sentence of the modified part of the modified document data acquired by the modified document acquiring unit. The modification deciding unit generates answers to the question sentence generated by the question generating unit for the modified document data and the related document data, respectively, and, when the similarity between the answers is lower than a specific threshold, determines that the related document data needs to be modified and presents the determination to the user.
The image forming apparatus includes an image carrier, a charging unit, an exposure unit, a developing unit, a transfer unit, a cleaning blade, and a controller. The controller detects printing-coverage rates on a basis of plural areas divided in the longitudinal direction of the image carrier. At a specified timing, the controller executes aging process in which the image carrier in a charged state is driven into rotation under light irradiation by the exposure unit. For the aging process, the controller sets a condition that a light quantity of the exposure unit for an area of larger coverage rate is larger than a light quantity of the exposure unit for an area of smaller coverage rate.
