Abstract
An image processing apparatus includes a character identifying unit configured to identify character data of black from color image data; a character data generating unit configured to add character data of a color other than black to the character data of black as additional character data to generate combined character data; and a character data correcting unit configured to perform thinning process of making a line of a character of the additional character data thinner than a line of the character data of black.
Claims11
An image processing apparatus comprising:
- a character identifying unit configured to identify character data of black from color image data;
- a character data generating unit configured to add character data of a color other than black to the character data of black as additional character data to generate combined character data;
- and
- a character data correcting unit configured to perform thinning process of making a line of a character of the additional character data thinner than a line of the character data of black.
An image processing method comprising:
- identifying character data of black from color image data;
- generating combined character data by adding character data of a color other than black to the character data of black as additional character data;
- and
- performing thinning process of making a line of a character of the additional character data thinner than a line of the character data of black.
A non-transitory computer-readable storage medium with an executable program stored thereon, wherein the program instructs a computer to perform:
- identifying character data of black from color image data;
- generating combined character data by adding character data of a color other than black to the character data of black as additional character data;
- and
- performing thinning process of making a line of a character of the additional character data thinner than a line of the character data of black.
