Abstract
An image processing device extracts resolution data from an input image data, and executes resolution converting processing on the input image data to provide longitudinal and lateral resolutions equal to each other when the longitudinal and lateral resolutions are different from each other. An inclination of the image having the longitudinal and lateral resolutions equal to each other is detected, and the image data having the longitudinal and lateral resolutions equal to each other is rotated in accordance with the inclination. Resolution converting processing is executed again on the rotated image data to restore the longitudinal and lateral resolutions to the original resolutions, respectively.
