Abstract: An image forming apparatus includes a display having a function of editing input image data and a function of displaying page images immediately after reading in order. When a first type of instruction to change shape of an image formed on a recording medium is given, the edition is not reflected on a document display mode screen image, and when a second type of instruction to edit page by page the recording medium having images formed thereon is given, the edition is reflected on the document display mode screen image. By switching between a finish preview screen image and the document display mode screen image, the image after edition and the image immediately after reading can be compared easily.

Abstract: An image forming apparatus includes: a document reading unit 110 allowing input of image data generated from a read document, a paper feed unit 140 containing recording paper, an image forming unit 120 forming an image on the recording paper based on the image data, and a touch-panel display 132 displaying a preview image representing a state of image formation. The touch-panel display displays a preview image in a designated orientation for a document of a prescribed size, and displays a preview image in accordance with size and orientation of recording paper fed from the paper feed unit, for a document not of the prescribed size. Thus, for documents of a prescribed size, preview images in a prescribed orientation can be displayed regardless of the direction of arrangement of the recording paper, and easier confirmation of expected finish of the formed image becomes possible.

Abstract: In order to provide a technique allowing easy confirmation of image contents even if the number of images increases, a display console includes a display device having an image displaying function and a display control unit controlling the display by dividing a display screen of the display device into an image preview area and another area. The display control unit switches, in accordance with a user instruction, between a fit-to-screen screen image in which area ratio between the preview area and another area has a first value, and a finish preview screen image, an image edition mode screen image, or a document display mode screen image, in which the size of another area is made smaller and the size of preview area is made larger than in the fit-to-screen screen image.

Abstract: An image forming apparatus includes a document reader, a storage for storing image data and a control unit. The control unit includes a display image generator, a display panel and a control unit-side controller for giving display guidance on the input status of image data from the document reader, on the display panel. The control unit-side controller has the function that, when image data is input from the document reader, displays display images generated by the display image generator, sequentially in the order of input and displaying the latest display image preferentially in the preview region during input of image data.
