An image forming apparatus for visually impaired people and an image forming method of the apparatus are provided to convert sound switched information contained in the document into sound data and to output the sound data for allowing the people to check the contents of the document and to shorten the time for searching the image data. A fax transmission process of an image forming apparatus comprises the steps of; receiving a fax number(S110), scanning documents and generating image data(S111), judging whether a sound attached signal for visually impaired people is inputted(S112), converting sound switched information contained in the document into sound data and outputting the sound data(S113), inputting whether the image data is transferred(S116), transferring the image data to a fax receiving device(S117), and displaying a transferred result of the image data(S118).
