Liquid droplet discharging control device, liquid droplet discharging control method, and liquid droplet discharging apparatus

A liquid droplet discharging control method which causes a liquid droplet discharging apparatus including a head, in which a plurality of nozzles are arranged in a predetermined direction, to perform printing and which is capable of executing a nearby compensation process in which, on the basis of a dot position on which a predetermined nozzle for black ink forms a dot, a nearby nozzle that forms a dot in the vicinity of the dot forms a dot and executing a composite compensation process in which dots of a plurality of different colors are overlap-printed on a predetermined dot position, the method comprising:

• acquiring parameters corresponding to the degree of liquid spreading toward a periphery after adhesion of a liquid droplet to a medium;
• and
• switching between execution of the nearby compensation process and execution of the composite compensation process on the basis of the parameters.
