An image combining apparatus includes a control section which acquires first position information identifying a figure on a first medium from an electronic pen by using the first medium where a pattern for the electronic pen to detect an electronic pen tip position is combined with a background of a image list, identifies an image from the position information by referring to information associating each image with a position on the first medium, further acquires second position information identifying a figure on a second medium from the electronic pen by using the second medium on which the pattern is formed, and identifies an image combining area from the first and second position information, and then associates the image combining area with the image; and an image processing section creating a combined image by combining the image combining area with the image associated with the image combining area.
