ABSTRACT:
An image processing apparatus having the function of painting out the enclosed area in the outline of an image such as a character or a figure. This apparatus includes a first memory for storing outline information indicative of the outline of the image; an editing unit to perform conversion such as enlargement, reduction, or rotation for the outline information stored in the first memory; a convertor to convert the outline information stored in the first memory to dot information; a separate memory to store the dot information; a recognition circuit to recognize singular dot information among the converted dot information in the separate memory; a painting-out circuit to paint out a closed area of the dot information except the singular dot information; and a display to display, as an image, the dot information whose closed area has been painted out by painting-out circuit. With this apparatus, the inside of the outline can be accurately painted out.
