In an embodiment of the present disclosure, an image processing apparatus for generating dot data, which defines whether or not a dot is arranged in each pixel, includes: a dot number derivation unit configured to derive a number of dots to be arranged in a predetermined region of image data; a determination unit configured to determine an arrangement priority of a pixel in which a dot is arranged, based on the pixel value of each pixel included in the predetermined region and a threshold value group in a threshold value matrix; a correction unit configured to correct the derived number of dots, in a case where the derived number of dots is smaller than a criterial number of dots; and a generation unit configured to generate the dot data, based on the corrected number of dots and the arrangement priority.
An image processing apparatus for generating dot data to be used for forming an image on a printing medium, the dot data defining whether or not a dot is arranged in each pixel, the image processing apparatus comprising:
An image processing method for generating dot data to be used for forming an image on a printing medium, the dot data defining whether or not a dot is arranged in each pixel, the method comprising the steps of:
A non-transitory computer readable storage medium storing a program for causing a computer to perform an image processing method for generating dot data to be used for forming an image on a printing medium, the dot data defining whether or not a dot is arranged in each pixel, the method comprising the steps of:
