Abstract
Each adhesive toner image is formed so that at least one of the adhesive toner image bonding a front cover and a middle page together and the adhesive toner image bonding a back cover and a middle page together becomes greater in area than the adhesive toner image bonding the middle pages together when viewed from a direction perpendicular to a surface of a recording material, and a booklet is generated so that the adhesive toner image bonding the front cover and the middle page together, the adhesive toner image bonding the back cover and the middle page together, and the adhesive toner image bonding the middle pages together overlap when viewed from the direction perpendicular to the surface of the recording material.
Claims13
An image forming system comprising:
- an image forming apparatus configured to form an adhesive toner image on a recording material;
- and
- a booklet generation apparatus configured to generate a booklet including a recording material to be a front cover, a recording material to be a back cover, and two or more recording materials to be middle pages between the front cover and the back cover, the booklet generation apparatus including a thermal compression bonding unit configured to heat and press an adhesive toner image portion in a state where a plurality of recording materials each with the adhesive toner image formed thereon is stacked in order to bond the plurality of recording materials together,
- wherein each adhesive toner image is formed so that at least one of a first area of the adhesive toner image bonding the front cover and the middle page together and a second area of the adhesive toner image bonding the back cover and the middle page together is greater than a third area of the adhesive toner image bonding the middle pages together when viewed in a direction in which the thermal compression bonding unit is configured to press the adhesive toner image, and
- wherein the booklet is generated so that at least one of a first area of the adhesive toner image bonding the front cover and the middle page together and a second area of the adhesive toner image bonding the back cover and the middle page together entirely includes a third area of the adhesive toner image bonding the middle pages together when viewed in the direction in which the thermal compression bonding unit is configured to press the adhesive toner image.
