IMAGE PROCESSING APPARATUS, METHOD, AND SYSTEM

摘要

When a plurality of color conversion results of an image are to be thumbnail-output, all areas of the image are reduced, and the conversion results may be hard to recognize or the printing throughput may become low. In this invention, only part of image data to be thumbnail-output is temporarily held in a spool file. A plurality of types of image processing are performed for the held first image data to generate a plurality of second image data. The plurality of second image data are laid out on one page and output to a printer. With this arrangement, information sufficient to recognize the color conversion results in the image can be thumbnail-output in a short time.
