1. An information processing apparatus comprising:
a first analysis unit configured to detect reference instruction of reusable data by analyzing a print job generated based on a plurality of records, wherein the reusable data is commonly used for the plurality of records; a first determination unit configured to provisionally determine breakpoints of the records based on repetition cycles of the reference instruction of the reusable data detected by the first analysis unit; a second analysis unit configured to detect type and drawing position of variable data; a second determination unit configured to determine boundaries of the records based on the breakpoints provisionally determined by the first determination unit and the type and drawing position of the variable data detected by the second analysis unit; a storing unit configured to store the boundaries of the records determined by the second determination unit; a transmission unit configured to transmit the print job to an image forming apparatus that performs print processing based on the print job; a status acquisition unit configured to acquire a state of the print job from the image forming apparatus; and a display control unit configured to cause a display device to display a progress status of the print job on a record-by-record basis based on the boundaries of the records stored by the storing unit and the state of the print job acquired by the status acquisition unit.
