Abstract
The present invention presents an image processing apparatus that performs rotation, enlargement, reduction, clipping or overlapping processing of images at high speed using low capacity memories instead of page memories and without the need to read image data in repetition. A first band data storing element receives input image data line by line and stores it as local data. The local data stored in the first band data storing element is transformed by local data transforming element and then stored in a transformed data storing element. The local data is then read in the order it is to be output and stored in a second band data storing element. An image output element then outputs the local data as an output image.
