An information processing apparatus includes a detector, and first to fourth generation units. The detector detects an instruction to magnify a portion of a reduced image obtained by reducing an original image, using the first generation unit. Upon detection of the instruction, the second generation unit generates a first magnified image by magnifying the reduced-image portion such that the degree of the magnification becomes smaller from the center of the magnification toward a surrounding area. The third generation unit specifies a portion of the original image corresponding to a first magnified image region having a perimeter from which a distance to the center of the magnification is predetermined, and generates a second magnified image by magnifying the specified original image portion. The fourth generation unit composes and then outputs an image by superimposing the second magnified image on the first magnified image at the center of the magnification. |
