Abstract
An image forming apparatus that outputs images based on a job, when at least one particular page of the job stored in a storage unit is selected as a deletion target, deletes PDL data corresponding to that page, and when PDL data corresponding to a page included in the job is determined to be valid across another page, causes a resource control command of the PDL data corresponding to the selected page targeted for deletion to be included in PDL data of a subsequent page not selected as a deletion target.
