The present invention includes first setting means for setting, for an original image, a first image region including a reference point and a second image region other than the first image region; reducing means for reducing the original image; second setting means for setting, for a reduced image obtained, a reference point of the reduced image corresponding to the reference point of the original image, a first reduced image region corresponding to the first image region, and a second reduced image region corresponding to the second image region; modifying means for modifying, within the reduced image, an image in the second reduced image region so that the degree of modification increases with increasing distance from the reference point of the reduced image; expanding means for expanding image data of the modified second reduced image region into the second image region; and combining means for combining the image data expanded into the second image region with image data of the original image constituting the first image region, and outputting image data of an image that is modified so that the degree of modification increases with increasing distance from the reference point of the original image.
