Abstract
In a digital image forming apparatus, desired ones of different data stored in a hard disk are selected and given serial numbers in the order of selection. The data selected are linked and then output in any desired order without regard to the order in which they were written to the hard disk. The linked data are dealt with as a single job and printed on papers, OHP (Over Head Projector) films or similar recording media at a time. Further, the recording media may be stapled, punched or otherwise finished.
