There is provided an image forming apparatus that eliminates the need for separately preparing an encrypted file for each user. To achieve this, the image forming apparatus performs control of browsing of a browsing file that is browsed at a terminal. The document acquisition portion of the image forming apparatus acquires document data. The document encryption portion encrypts the document data with a public key as the browsing file. The position information setting portion sets position information to permit browsing of the browsing file encrypted by the document encryption portion in a viewer for causing the browsing file to be browsed at the terminal. In the case where it has been determined that the position information coincides with a current position, a browsing execution portion at the terminal uses a secret key to decrypt the browsing file for causing it to be browsed. |
