The first generation unit generates reduced original image data for forming a reduced image of an original image to be formed on the basis of print data. The second generation unit generates background-emphasized reduced image data for forming a reduced image in which a reduced background region is emphasized in the reduced image, and the reduced background region corresponds to a background region of an object included in the original image.
