A display control apparatus includes: a display control unit that displays a first page to which an object is affixed at a designated position and a second page as arranged side by side on a display; a detecting unit that detects overlap between the object and the second page when the first page and the second page are arranged side by side; and a processing unit that performs a process for preventing a reduction in visual recognizability of the second page displayed on the display due to the overlap in the case where the overlap is detected by the detecting unit.
