20080320406 | IMAGE DISPLAYING APPARATUS, IMAGE DISPLAYING METHOD, PROGRAM FOR EXECUTING IMAGE DISPLAYING METHOD, AND STORAGE MEDIUM STORING PROGRAM - It is controlled to determine priority for each of plural display objects, wherein the priority having plural levels, and to change displays of the plural display objects in the determined priority, in accordance with a display form of an image different from the plural display objects. To achieve this, the present invention provides an image displaying method of displaying the plural display objects on a display unit, the method comprising: determining the priority for each of the plural display objects, and changing the displays of the plural display objects in the determined priority, in accordance with a display form of the image different from the plural display objects. | 12-25-2008 |
20090208228 | IMAGE FORMING APPARATUS AND IMAGE FORMING METHOD - An image forming apparatus and an image forming method are provided, which can reduce time and effort needed by consistency examination between a printed code data and a paper fingerprint data. In the present invention, paper fingerprint information before starting of the printing of the paper for output on which the document to be guaranteed in the originality authenticity is to be printed is acquired. When printing the document to be guaranteed in the originality authenticity, a code image data generated based on the paper fingerprint data of the paper for output on which the document is to be printed and the document mentioned above, are printed on the paper for output. Subsequently, the paper fingerprint data before starting of the printing and the paper fingerprint data after finishing of the printing are collated, then, it is judged whether the paper for output mentioned above is a paper-fingerprint deformation paper. | 08-20-2009 |
20090257099 | IMAGE PROCESSING APPARATUS AND IMAGE PROCESSING METHOD - An image processing apparatus includes a region detection unit configured to detect from an image a region which is sandwiched between a pair of opposite lines and in which image formation is performed at a density lower than a predetermined density, a rendering unit configured to render a border of an inner portion inside the region sandwiched between the pair of opposite lines with a line having a density higher than the predetermined density, and an outputting unit configured to output an image in which the inner portion inside the region sandwiched between the pair of opposite lines is bordered by the border rendered by the rendering unit. | 10-15-2009 |
20090297025 | IMAGE PROCESSING DEVICE, IMAGE PROCESSING METHOD, AND STORAGE MEDIUM - An image processing device corrects brightness/hue in appearance of an object of interest while suppressing an effect of an optical illusion even if the object of interest is overlapped with a background part of any color. The image processing device includes an evaluation device that evaluates a record value of the object of interest and the background part thereof, a device that corrects the record value of the object of interest in order to correct the optical illusion of a human being according to a result of evaluation by the evaluation device, and a device that performs record with the record value after the correction. | 12-03-2009 |
20100002272 | IMAGE PROCESSING DEVICE AND IMAGE PROCESSING METHOD - An object of the present invention is to improve an image quality of a regeneration image of the identified ink jet document. The present invention includes a paper fiber detecting unit configured to detect a paper fiber for each pixel by an image signal obtained by reading a document, a print pixel identifying unit configured to identify whether or not pixels are print pixels for each pixel by the image signal, a document pixel identifying unit configured to identify whether or not the pixel is a pixel requiring a correction based upon the detection result by the paper fiber detecting unit and the identification result by the print pixel identifying unit, and an image correcting unit configured to correct the image signal in a case where it is determined that the pixel is the document pixel requiring the correction by the document pixel identifying unit. | 01-07-2010 |
20100157350 | IMAGE PROCESSING APPARATUS AND IMAGE PROCESSING METHOD - To detect with high accuracy a particular pattern hardly disturbing eyesight by identifying a pixel where paper fiber cannot be identified, as a particular pattern pixel on the basis of an result of an of paper fiber from a particular color pixels. An image processing apparatus according to an embodiment of the present invention includes a paper fiber identification unit configured to identify paper fiber from an original read signal, a particular color pixel identification unit configured to identify a particular color pixel from the original read signal, a particular pattern detection unit configured to identify a pixel where paper fiber cannot be identified, as a particular pattern pixel on the basis of an identification result of the paper fiber identification unit from the particular color pixel, and a control unit configured to control the image processing apparatus in accordance with a result of the particular pattern detection unit. | 06-24-2010 |
20110149318 | APPARATUS, METHOD AND PROGRAM FOR PROCESSING AN IMAGE - An image processing apparatus includes a comparison unit, a change unit, and a printing unit to perform variable printing in a form of a composite of a master page and a variable page. The comparison unit compares a color of the master page and a color of the variable page near a boundary line between the master page and the boundary page. In a case where the master page and the variable page are similar in color near the boundary line, the change unit changes the master page to another master page with a color that is not similar to the color of the variable page. The printing unit prints the another master page and the variable page in a composite form. | 06-23-2011 |
20120250048 | IMAGE PROCESSING APPARATUS AND IMAGE PROCESSING METHOD - An image processing apparatus includes a receiving unit configured to externally receive print data including information on an attribute of an image to print, a rasterizing unit configured to generate raster image data based on the print data received by the receiving unit, an attribute data generating unit configured to generate attribute data representing an attribute of an image included in the raster image data generated by the rasterizing unit based on the information on an attribute of an image to print included in the print data, and a vectorizing unit configured to vectorize at least a part of the raster image data. The vectorizing unit identifies the attribute of the image included in the raster image data based on the attribute data generated by the attribute data generating unit, and performs vectorization based on the identified attribute of the image. | 10-04-2012 |
