An image forming system includes an image forming apparatus, a pressure-bonding processing apparatus, an inputting portion, and a display portion. The displaying portion displays a pressure-bonding printed matter prepared by changing directions of a front surface and a back surface of the recording material in a case that the directions of the front surface and the back surface of the recording material inputted by the inputting portion are different from directions of the front surface and the back surface of the recording material when the pressure-bonding printed matter is capable of being properly prepared.
