Abstract
A document display method includes a determination step of determining, in a case that a display magnification of document data to be displayed is reduced, whether or not the display magnification of the document data is equal to or greater than a predetermined display magnification, and an applying step of applying smoothing processing to image data of the document data if it is determined that the display magnification of the document data is equal to or greater than the predetermined display magnification, and not applying the smoothing processing to the image data of the document data if it is determined that the display magnification of the document data is less than the predetermined display magnification. In addition, a display step displays the image data to which the smoothing processing has been applied in the applying step or the image data to which the smoothing processing has not been applied.
