ABSTRACT:
This invention has as its object to prevent image quality deterioration of vector and raster image parts by allowing adjustment of the toner amount for respective objects when single image data includes both vector and raster image parts. To accomplish this, image data is separated into vector and raster image parts, a vector or raster image attribute is assigned to each pixel, and the toner amount is adjusted for each pixel of each object.
