Abstract
When an image file is loaded into an electronic album, an electronic album editing apparatus displays images on a page by arranging a layout and performs editing of the images such as cropping and magnification and reduction. The electronic album editing apparatus displays the edited images on the page and determines whether the images that are already edited and displayed, overlap with each other for use in the album. When it is determined that the images overlap with each other, the electronic album editing apparatus issues a warning to that effect to the user.
