Abstract: Provided are an image forming apparatus capable of setting a printing size of a margin by using a preview displayed in an enlarged manner, and a non-transitory computer-readable storage medium. When a pinch-in operation performed with respect to a particular region at a left end in a whole page preview displayed on a display section has been accepted, an MFP displays a left end preview in an enlarged manner to be larger in size than the particular region at the left end in the whole page preview. When a left-to-right swipe operation performed with respect to the displayed left end preview has been accepted, the MFP sets a size specified by the swipe operation as a printing size of a margin of a page as a target of the preview, and displays a whole page preview and a left end preview, both reflecting a margin having the set size.

Abstract: To provide an approval system associated with an approval workflow that identifies a signature document. A document management server for managing document data is connected with a client terminal (CLT) via an in-house LAN. Also, a seal to be affixed to a paper containing document specification information establishes a communication to the CLT. The seal reads the document specification information and user's fingerprint information and transmits the resulting pieces of information and impression information to the CLT. The document management server receives the document specification information, the fingerprint information and the impression information to confirm a coincidence between the received fingerprint and matching fingerprint and to confirm a coincidence between a set of the received document specification information and the received impression information and a set of matching document specification information and matching impression information, and to notify an approval situation to the CLT.
