The inventive image processing apparatus takes steps of 1) dividing an image to be processed into numerals of blocks; 2) determining whether a block is a color block or not; 3) determining whether the image is a color image or not based on the rate of color blocks to the entire blocks. Thereby, valid color pixel rate can be obtained at blocks belonging to a color region even though an image is almost monochrome but partially colored. Accordingly, the inventive image processing apparatus can appropriately determine whether the image is a color image or not.

A job execution system comprises a job execution apparatus, a mode storage portion which stores mode control information that indicates the relationship between a user and a job execution mode of a group to which the user belongs, and a mode identification portion which identifies the job execution mode of the group to which the user belongs in accordance with the user information entered by the user and the mode control information. Furthermore, the job execution apparatus is equipped with a job execution portion which executes the job and a controller which allows the job execution portion to execute the job directed by the user for execution in a job execution mode identified by the mode identification portion.

In an image coding apparatus for encoding and decoding multi-level image data with block truncation coding, multi-level image data is divided into second blocks (e.g., 6*6 pixels) which is larger in size than a first block (e.g., 4*4 pixels) to be coded. Average value and gradation level amplitude are calculated on a second block, and encoding and decoding are performed on a first block by using the average value and gradation level amplitude. When a pixel not adjacent to the first block is included in an end of the image or the like in a second block, data of the actual pixels are used for the pixels having no data. Thus, deterioration of the image quality can be reduced.

An image editing apparatus includes an image display apparatus for displaying a read image. An area of an image region displayed in the image display apparatus is determined by the size of the read image. For an image editing process, a frame which indicates an image editing region is displayed within the image region. A cursor is used to move the frame, where the cursor has a display shape which changes in accordance with a position of the frame.

A method and device for processing image data for a document includes the steps of reading RGB image data for the document; dividing the document image data into a plurality of blocks including a prescribed pixel matrix; calculating an average value information and a gradation range index for each of the blocks; converting the data for each pixel of each of the blocks into coded image data based on the average value information and the gradation range index so that the coded image data defines each pixel with fewer gradation levels than the original image data; storing in a memory unit the gradation range index and coded data, which were obtained for each block through the converting step; forming letter distribution histograms for a primary scanning direction and a secondary scanning direction for each block determined to belong to a letter image; identifying a direction in which letters of the document are aligned based on a number of change points in the histogram for the primary scanning direction and a number of change points in the histogram for the secondary scanning direction; decoding the coded data for each of the blocks based on the respective average value information and gradation range index in the memory unit for the block; and forming an image on copy paper based on the decoded data.

An image forming apparatus includes an encode process unit for: (a) allocating image data of an original document into blocks containing a predetermined pixel matrix, and (b) determining from the image data in each block a mean value information and a gradient range exponent for each block; a series copy data generating unit for generating reduction image data for a plurality of reduction images by using the mean value information for each of the blocks as image data for the reduction images so that each pixel of the reduction images corresponds to a respective one of the plurality of blocks of the original document image data; and an image forming unit for forming images based on the reduction image data generated by the series copy data generating unit.

A method of image processing includes the steps of allocating image data of a document into a plurality of blocks of a predetermined pixel matrix; determining a gradient range exponent and a mean value information for each of the blocks based on the image data contained in each of the blocks; encoding the image data of each pixel of each of the blocks into code data based on the mean value information and gradient range exponent for the respective block so that the code data defines each pixel with fewer gradation levels than the image data; determining whether or not a mutually adjoining block is related to a solid image of a same density relative to a block subject to the encoding process; and executing a run length encoding process for a batch of mean value information, gradient range exponent, and code data based on a run length of adjoining blocks discriminated as related to a solid image of the same density.
