Zusammenfassung:PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide an apparatus capable of precisely determining the orientation of a document even if environmental conditions vary.SOLUTION: An orientation determination apparatus (700) comprises: an adding unit (714) which respectively calculates the added value of absolute values of horizontal differences between adjacent pixels and the added value of absolute values of vertical differences between adjacent pixels, with respect to the aggregate image of a text generated from a text mask of a document image; and an orientation determination unit (718) which compares the horizontally added value and the vertically added value and determines the orientation of text lines.
