Image forming apparatus, image editing method and non-transitory computer-readable recording medium for forming an image on a recording medium based on an image displayed on a display section
When a position detecting section detects two points of contact with a display screen of a display section, a medium deciding section decides a recording medium based on a change in distance between the two points. And an image displayed on the display section is formed on the recording medium decided on by the medium deciding section.
1. An image forming apparatus that comprises a display section, and a position detecting section detecting a position of contact with a display screen of the display section, and that forms an image on a sheet-like recording medium based on a display image displayed on the display section, wherein
there are provided a plurality of types of recording media having different sizes, and the image forming apparatus comprises a medium deciding section deciding the recording medium concerning the image formation based on a change in distance between the two points detected by the position detecting section.
2. The image forming apparatus according to claim 1 , further comprising
a display control section displaying, on the display section, information concerning the recording medium decided by the medium deciding section.
3. A medium deciding method for deciding a recording medium by using an image forming apparatus that comprises a display section, a position detecting section detecting a position of contact with a display screen of the display section, and a plurality of types of recording media having different sizes and forms an image based on the display image displayed on the display section,
wherein the medium deciding method comprises a step of deciding the recording medium concerning the image formation based on a change in distance between the two points detected by the position detecting section.
4. A non-transitory computer-readable recording medium storing a computer program for a computer constituting an image forming apparatus that comprises a display section, a position detecting section detecting a position of contact with a display screen of the display section, and a plurality of types of recording media having different sizes and forms an image based on the display image displayed on the display section, said computer program comprising:
a step causing the computer to make the position detecting section to detect the position of contact; and
a step causing the computer to decide the recording medium concerning the image formation based on a change in distance between the two points detected by the position detecting section.
