IMAGE PROCESSING METHOD, IMAGE PROCESSOR, IMAGE OUTPUT METHOD AND IMAGE OUTPUT DEVICE

摘要

PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To record an image to which image processing is previously performed to have good image quality, especially gradation.

SOLUTION: This image processor processes an image signal for an image output device for outputting an image by gradation-converting an image signal with designated γ-LUT. The processor is provided with a gradation converting means for converting the substantially gradation characteristic about an image outputted by the image output device by performing signal converting processing to the image signal. The gradation converting means converts the gradation characteristic according to the designated transmission density - reflection density characteristic.
