Content data of a display target is acquired in accordance with a user's operations and is used to determine a configuration of a display image. Of the regions to be rendered using fonts in the display image, the region in which a character is to be displaced by a very small amount is determined. The characters targeted for displacement are rendered while being displaced over time in accordance with predetermined displacement rules. The characters not targeted for displacement are rendered in a reference position. With all characters rendered, the display image is completed and output. The processes of S12 to S24 are repeated until display is terminated.
