The method of obtaining a reproduced printed picture such as a separated color film, without the necessity for modifications typically associated with a retouching work for such prints. In accordance with the invention, data signals representing quantity and area of retouching work are determined with the aid of a monitored picture which is obtained on a CRT screen through similar treatment as is done in a color scanner. The data signals are stored in a memory device, and are read out and added to recording signals of a color scanner to provide a composite recording signal which includes the desired retouching. Where the monitored picture represents a plurality of picture elements corresponding to data points stored in the memory device, data retrieved from the memory device is interpolated for presentation as the monitored picture. Interpolation may be linear, and is provided in two dimensions in order to provide a smoothed monitored image. |
