Abstract
A numeral setting apparatus for setting numerals such as copy magnification, copy density, or the like includes an operating member such as up/down keys or a volume lever and a setting device to set numerals corresponding to a magnitude of force which is applied to the operating member. When a larger force is applied to the operating member, the setting device changes the numerals in larger increments than those in the case where a smaller force is applied.
