In case of subjecting input graduation image data of 8 bits per pixel to multilevel dither processing, to convert them into image data having gradients of 3 bits per pixel on the basis of dither threshold planes, in a combination of threshold arrays extending over the plural dither threshold planes, dither thresholds for raising spatial frequency, as shown in FIG. 8A, are arranged in low density areas of the input graduation image data, and dither thresholds for making spatial frequency lower than that in the low density areas, as shown in FIG. 8C, are arranged in half tone areas and high density areas of the input graduation image data. <IMAGE> <IMAGE> |
