Abstract
The image processing apparatus in the present invention is an image processing apparatus that supplies roughness shape data to an image forming apparatus that forms a roughness shape based on a roughness shape of an object to be reproduced. The image processing apparatus includes: an input reception unit configured to receive an input of information representing the roughness shape of the object to be reproduced; an acquisition unit configured to acquire output characteristics relating to a roughness shape that the image forming apparatus can output; and a generation unit configured to generate roughness shape data that is supplied to the image forming apparatus based on the information representing the roughness shape of the object to be reproduced and the output characteristics.
