ABSTRACT:
An image processing apparatus for correcting shape errors when a graphic image to which contour line data was given is painted and developed comprises: an input device to input contour line data of image information; a circuit to make a contour line pattern of the image information on the basis of the contour line data; a circuit to make a painted pattern in which the inside of the contour line pattern was painted; a circuit to narrow the painted pattern; and a contour line correcting circuit to obtain the exclusive-OR of the narrowed painted pattern and the contour line pattern. The contour line pattern is eliminated from the painted pattern by the narowing circuit. The contour line correcting circuit has a converter to convert the contour line pattern in correspondence to the drawing direction of the contour line pattern and obtains the exclusive-OR of the converted contour line pattern and the painted pattern. This apparatus can prevent that the small blank region in an image, is painted and can effect a feature of a contour line.
