Abstract
An apparatus for generating data includes one or more processors and one or more memories, the one or more memories including one or more programs. The one or more programs cause the one or more processors (a) to generate edge data for specifying an area that corresponds to an edge of a convex portion, based on data for specifying a position of the convex portion in unevenness, (b) to determine whether a height of the edge that the edge data represents is equal to or greater than a first threshold, and (c) to reduce a recording amount of a recording material for forming, on the recording medium, an area that corresponds to the edge the height of which is less than the first threshold.
