Abstract:
1. An electronic device, comprising: an imaging device configured to scan a paper sheet, wherein the paper sheet comprises a first side and a second side, wherein scanning the paper sheet produces an image; a display device; a printing image acquisition unit configured to acquire a printing image to be printed on an image forming apparatus; a display control unit configured to control the display device to display, if the produced image includes an image of a paper sheet, a composite image in which the acquired printing image and the image of the paper sheet included in the produced image are combined; a rotational direction detection unit configured to detect, if the paper sheet is turned over from the first side to the second side, a rotational direction in which the paper sheet is turned over with respect to the paper sheet; and a binding orientation setting unit configured to set a binding orientation for double-sided printing performed on the image forming apparatus, wherein: the rotational direction detection unit is configured to detect, if the produced image includes the image of the paper sheet, the rotational direction with respect to the paper sheet; and the binding orientation setting unit is configured to set the binding orientation corresponding to the detected rotational direction.
