Abstract
An image forming system an image forming apparatus, a varnish applying apparatus, an input unit, a first image processing unit, and a second image processing unit. The image forming apparatus forms a toner image on a recording material on the basis of image data obtained by subjecting first image data to data change processing. The varnish applying apparatus forms a varnish image on the recording material on the basis of image data obtained by subjecting second image data to the data change processing.
Claims6
A varnish applying apparatus comprising:
- an input unit configured to receive data change processing information including at least one of reduction, magnification, and arrangement of first image data from an image forming apparatus;
- a varnish applying unit configured to form a varnish image on a recording material on the basis of second image data;
- and
- an image processing unit configured to execute data change processing in which the second image data is changed on the basis of the data change processing information for the first image data,
- wherein the varnish applying unit forms the varnish image on the recording material on the basis of image data obtained by subjecting the second image data to the data change processing.
A varnish applying apparatus comprising:
- an input unit configured to receive data change processing information including at least one of reduction, magnification, and arrangement of first image data from an image forming apparatus;
- a varnish applying unit configured to form a varnish image on a recording material on the basis of second image data;
- an image processing unit configured to execute data change processing in which the second image data is changed on the basis of the data change processing information for the first image data;
- and
- a selecting unit provided in the image processing unit and configured to select whether or not the second image data is to be subjected to the data change processing,
- wherein in a case that selection that the second image data is to be subjected to the data change processing is made, the varnish applying unit forms the varnish image on the recording material on the basis of image data obtained by subjecting the second image data to the data change processing by the image processing unit, and
- wherein in a case that the selection that the second image data is to be subjected to the data change processing is not made, the varnish applying unit forms the varnish image on the recording material on the basis of the second image data which is not subjected to the data change processing.
