Abstract
When an N-upped paper document was viewed by previewing, visibility thereof was poor because contents corresponding to N pages are displayed collectively. Expansion thereof for improving the visibility makes the operability poor. An image processing device of the present invention includes: a determining unit for determining whether or not image data corresponding to an inputted document is image data of an N-up document in which contents corresponding to N pages (N≧2) are arranged in one page; a first thumbnail generating unit for generating a first thumbnail of 1-up that is a thumbnail of any of the N pages when the image data corresponding to the inputted document is determined to be the image data of the N-up document by the determining unit; and a display unit for preview-displaying the first thumbnail.
