Abstract
An image forming system includes an image forming apparatus, a varnish applying apparatus, and a controller. A toner image formed on a recording material by the image forming apparatus on the basis of inputted first image data is a first toner image, and an image formed on the recording material by the varnish applying apparatus on the basis of inputted second image data is a varnish image. In a case that the varnish image is to be formed in a non-image region where the first toner image is not formed, before the varnish image is formed, a second toner image is formed with monochromatic toner by the image forming apparatus on a portion of the non-image region where the varnish image is to be formed.
