6. The non-transitory computer-readable medium to claim 1, the method further comprising:

controlling, when the term indicated by the term information stored in the storage unit is expired, a providing request unit to make the providing source provide the webpage data, which is an acquiring source of the specific image data, corresponding to the term information; and

controlling, when the webpage data, which is provided from the providing source by the providing request unit, the second acquiring control unit to acquire the term from the webpage data, by using the term acquiring information stored in the storage unit.

7. The non-transitory computer-readable medium according to claim 1, the method further comprising:

controlling the first acquiring unit to acquire the term based on a character image, which is included in the specific image received by using the operation unit, or a character data, which is included in the specific image data corresponding to the specific image.

8. The non-transitory computer-readable medium according to claim 7, the method further comprising:

controlling, when the operation unit receives the operation designating a term area representing the term in the specific image, the first acquiring unit to acquire the term based on the character image, which is included in the term area of the specific image received by using the operation unit, or the character data, which is included in the specific image data corresponding to the term area.

9. The non-transitory computer-readable medium according to claim 1, the method further comprising:

controlling, when the operation unit receives the operation designating the term, the first acquiring unit to acquire the term designated by operation received by the operation unit.

10. A method of image forming control comprising:

displaying an image represented by webpage data, which is provided from a providing source of the webpage data, on a display unit;

controlling, when an operation unit receives a operation designating a specific image associated with term that is a partial image being at least a part of the webpage image, a first acquiring unit to acquire the term associated with the specific image received by the operation unit;

controlling a storage unit to store;

term information indicating the term acquired by the first acquiring unit;

term acquiring information to acquire the term from the webpage data by the same process as the first acquiring unit;

specific image data acquiring information to acquire specific image data corresponding to the specific image from the webpage data; and

webpage data specifying information to specify either webpage data;

controlling, when the webpage data specified by the webpage data specifying information is provided by the providing source, a second acquiring unit to acquire the term from said webpage data, by using the term acquiring information stored in the storage unit; and

controlling, when the term acquired by the second acquiring unit is updated from the term indicated by the term information, a specific image data acquiring unit to acquire the specific image data from the webpage data, by using the specific image data acquiring information stored in the storage unit.

11. The method according to claim 10,
