ABSTRACT:
A process is provided for avoiding a gap between adjacent uniform color objects in an image. First, it is first determined whether the image data contains two adjacent uniform color objects, each uniform color composed of two or fewer characteristic color components, and whether a gap would be evident between the uniform color objects. If the image data does not contain two adjacent uniform color objects with two or fewer characteristic color components or if a gap would not be evident, the image data is processed and output without adjusting the image. If, alternatively, it is determined that the image data contains two adjacent uniform color objects with two or fewer characteristic color components and a gap would be evident, at least one of the objects is examined to determine the saturation of each characteristic color component. Once the saturation of each color component is determined, small percentages of the total saturation of each characteristic color component are added together to form a light gray component of the same color as the examined color object. Next, the light gray component is added as a border around the edges of the adjacent color objects. Then, the image data is processed and output.
