ABSTRACT:
In order to estimate a character size of a subject copy in a facsimile system, the number of white runs is detected with respect to each of run length detected. Subsequently, an average white run length is determined. Thereafter, the character size is estimated by referring to data indicating a relationship between an average white run length and a character size.
