To provide an information processing device capable of facilitating input by a user of a symbol, such as, e.g., a character, a mark (a symbol in a narrow sense), a pictogram (a pictorial symbol), and so forth. An area setting unit (72) sets a plurality of areas corresponding to symbols or symbol groups in a screen image. A determination unit (76) determines whether or not a position pointed out by a user in the screen image is included in any of the plurality of areas. A symbol string obtaining unit (78) obtains a symbol string input by a user, based on the result of the determination by the determination unit (76). A process executing unit (80) carries out a process, based on the result of comparison between a reference symbol string and the symbol string input by a user. An area setting unit (72) sets the size of an area corresponding to a symbol included in the reference symbol string, or an area corresponding to a symbol group to which the symbol included in the reference symbol string belongs, larger than the size of an area corresponding to a symbol not included in the reference symbol string or an area corresponding to a symbol group to which the symbol included in the reference symbol string does not belong.
