The original size is stored together with the image data in an image data inputting stage. An image output magnification is calculated so as to output an image in a size equal to the size of the original based on the resolution of the image output device and the resolution of the image input device in an image data outputting stage, and enlarged or reduced image data is outputted at the calculated magnification.
