Converting system for picture element number

Abstract

Abstract PURPOSE:To current picture element numbers by which an image of high quality which scarcely causes collapse and omission, by providing a processor for converting the number of picture elements by using dot data of one raster position of an image as one unit, and an image developing processor, etc. CONSTITUTION:When image data which has been encoded as an original image is inputted to an image developing processor 10, the processor 10 converts it to dot data, and accumulates it in a temporary storage device 12. Linear density information functioning as control information, and the number of vertical and horizontal dots, etc. are put to the hed of this encoded data, and given from the processor 10 to a picture element number converting processor 13. Dot data (dot data arranged in one horizontal line of an image) of one raster portion of an image are read out as one unit to the processor 13 from the device 12, and the picture element number conversion is executed. In this case, the processor 13 executes the picture element number conversion, based on the linear density information of the original image which has been given from the processor 10. In this way, the picture element number conversion of high quality, which scarcely causes collapse and omission can be executed.
