ABSTRACT:
A line image generating apparatus includes a first register for storing information on a pattern of a segment, a second register for holding first data which is expressed by a fixed decimal point and determined by the ratio between a moving amount on a first axis and a moving amount on a second axis which intersects the first axis, the ratio being variable in each step, a third register for holding second data expressed by a fixed decimal point in a current step, an adder for adding the first and second data and for supplying an output as a result of the addition to the third register, and a selector for selecting an output from the first register as a function of the content of the third register replaced by the output from the adder.
