Abstract
An image forming system includes a concealment word registration unit, an ID information acquisition unit, a concealment word managing unit, and an image forming unit. The concealment word registration unit registers a concealment word associating with a user. The ID information acquisition unit obtains creator ID information and execution person ID information from a print job, the creator ID information identifies a user as a creator of a document file, the execution person ID information identifies a user as an execution person of the image formation process. The concealment word managing unit uses the concealment words to determine a concealment region. The concealment words include the concealment word associated with the user identified by the creator ID information and the concealment word associated with the user identified by the execution person ID information. The image forming unit executes a masking process that makes the concealment region illegible.
