An image processing device for extracting connected components of image data includes a first image memory for storing image data that contains connected components (e.g., object image data). A processor searches the image data stored in the first image memory to detect a part of the object image data and determines a watching area of the image data in the main rasterizing scan direction on the basis of the detected part of the object image data. The processor then searches the image data to detect a line segment of continuous pixels that is coupled to and includes the watching area. Once, the line segment is detected, the processor cancels the detected line segment from the image data stored in the first image memory and outputs data corresponding to the cancelled line segment. The device also includes a second image memory for storing the detected and cancelled line segment outputted by the processor as a connected component of the image data.
