Image processing device
View Patent ↗An image processing device is structured such that an appropriate judgement of an image, at which blurring or disappearance or the like will occur, is possible. When pixels, which form a line image at which there is the possibility that blurring or disappearance will occur at the time of printing by using a printing plate, are extracted, a line image warning function gives notice by displaying a warning message on a monitor of a client terminal. Thereafter, image converting and print setting are carried out such that an extracted line image is clarified. In this way, when a proof is prepared, an image, at which there is the possibility that blurring or disappearance will occur on a printed matter obtained by using a printing plate, is clarified, and appropriate proofing is possible.
1. An image processing device which carries out image processing on the basis of at least one of a drawing command and image data generated at an image processing terminal, the image processing device comprising:
an extracting section for extracting a predetermined line image from the at least one of the image data and the drawing command, the predetermined line image being extracted based on a clarification that the predetermined line image will at least one of blur or disappear when the predetermined line image is printed; and
a processing section for processing a predetermined process such that the line image extracted by the extracting section can be recognized as the predetermined line image.
2. An image processing device according to claim 1 , wherein the processing section converts the line image extracted by the extracting section into a line image having a predetermined thickness or more.
3. An image processing device according to claim 1 , wherein the processing section converts a color of the line image extracted by the extracting section into a predetermined color.
4. An image processing device according to claim 1 , wherein the processing section erases the line image extracted by the extracting section.
5. An image processing device according to claim 1 , wherein the processing section generates image data of only the line image extracted by the extracting section.
6. An image processing device according to claim 1 , wherein the extracting section extracts the line image from raster data generated on the basis of the image data.
7. An image processing device according to claim 6 , wherein the extracting section extracts the line image by comparing pixels in a predetermined region and patterns set in advance.
