An object of the invention is to freely construct a file processing environment in which when a file is thumbnail displayed, print attributes held in the relevant file can be easily and visually discriminated from the displayed thumbnail. In an information processing apparatus by which a file which holds predetermined attributes can be stored, a CPU obtains image attributes and print attributes from attributes of the file stored in an external storing apparatus, forms a reduction image to which the print attributes are reflected as an image on the basis of the obtained image attributes and print attributes, and displays the formed reduction image to a display apparatus.
