Abstract
An image processing apparatus obtains first information indicating a local displacement between a first document image and a first read image obtained by reading a print product based on the first document image, generates a reference image obtained by adding the local displacement in accordance with the first information to a second document image and compares a second read image with the reference image to inspect a print product based on the second document image, the second read image obtained by reading the print product based on the second document image. The reference image includes a document region obtained by adding local deformation in accordance with the first information to the second document image, and a blank region surrounding the document region. An image inside the document region is obtained by adding the local deformation regarding the first information to the second document image and deforming the addition result.
