Abstract
The image processing apparatus transforms orthogonal transform coefficients into a predetermined number of bits for each spatial frequency, rearranges quantized data for each spatial frequency to an arrangement with spatial frequency band portions, thereby generates bit serial data that the quantized data of the same spatial frequency band exists successively over adjacent blocks, and compresses the bit serial data.
