摘要

An electronic filing apparatus includes a reading unit which reads an image of a document, a storage unit which stores the read image, a display unit which displays the stored image, and a printing unit which prints the displayed image on a recording sheet. The apparatus further includes a line setting unit which sets a partition line within the displayed image in accordance with input data when the displayed image is greater in size than the recording sheet, a generating unit which generates split images by splitting the displayed image in accordance with the partition line to make each of the split images smaller in size than the recording sheet, and a print control unit which controls the printing unit to print each of the generated split images on the recording sheet.
