Abstract
With an image processing system, to-be-processed image data is run length coded. The pattern type of 1.times.M pixels of each row of the to-be-processed image data and a repetition count of the 1.times.M pixel pattern in the row direction are obtained. The run-length coded to-be-processed image data is logically filtered in accordance with the pattern type of the 1.times.M pixel pattern and its repetition count, thereby obtaining run-length coded processed image data.
