Original Abstract Submitted

an information processing apparatus incudes at least one memory and at least one processor configured to cause a display device to display an image indicated by image data; accept a change in an original size of the image displayed on the display device; in a case where a change from a first original size to a second original size that is different from the first original size in an aspect ratio has been accepted as the change, change a layout of an object included in the image data based on the second original size; and cause the display device to display the image in the second original size based on the object whose layout has been changed.
