IMAGE PROCESSING APPARATUS, IMAGE PROCESSING METHOD, AND RECORDING MEDIUM - A simplified explanation of the abstract
This abstract first appeared for US patent application 18309019 titled 'IMAGE PROCESSING APPARATUS, IMAGE PROCESSING METHOD, AND RECORDING MEDIUM
Simplified Explanation
The present disclosure describes a technique for efficiently processing and preventing improper drawing when printing a monochrome representation of color data.
- The technique focuses on discriminability reproducing color conversion processing.
- A PDL analysis unit determines if there is any specified processing that changes the original color in the operator information of the target object.
- If processing like ROP or α-blending is specified, the discriminability reproducing color conversion processing is canceled.
- Instead, all-color uniform color conversion processing is switched to.
- This approach allows for efficient discriminability reproducing color conversion and prevents improper drawing.
Original Abstract Submitted
The technique of the present disclosure can achieve processing efficiency and prevention of improper drawing in printing a monochrome representation of color data. In performing discriminability reproducing color conversion processing, a PDL analysis unit determines whether processing involving color change that changes the original color is specified in operator information on a target object for the discriminability reproducing color conversion processing. In a case where processing that changes the original color, such as ROP or α-blending, is specified for the target object, the discriminability reproducing color conversion processing for the page is canceled and switched to all-color uniform color conversion processing. This enables both of efficient discriminability reproducing color conversion and prevention of improper drawing.
