Abstract
A copier capable of selectively changing an original color on a document to a target color on a copy, includes a digitizer for designating a spacial coordinate at which appears the original color to be changed to a target color. In a single scan, a scanner generates a series of electrical signals characteristic of the image content of the document, including the image content at the designated spacial coordinate. The generated signals are stored in a full page memory. As the stored signals are read from memory and supplied to a writer, color substitution is effected to the stored signals generated from portions of the document having a color substantially the same as that at the designated coordinate.
