IMAGE FORMING APPARATUS, PRINTING CONTROL TERMINAL APPARATUS AND IMAGE FORMING METHOD THERE OF

摘要

PURPOSE: An image forming apparatus, a printing control terminal device, and an image forming method thereof are provided to reduce the image degradation of printing data including a transparency pattern. CONSTITUTION: A transparent level pattern matching unit(121-1) compares predetermined transparent level pattern information with a pixel unit of a pattern shape of the converted pixel data. A transparent level pattern determining unit(122-2) determines the inclusion of the transparent pattern of the pixel area based on a comparing result. A smoothing processing unit(123-1) processes smoothing of the pixel area.
