There is described a compound apparatus, having a plurality of outputting functions including at least a copy function. The compound apparatus includes: an image-reading device to read an original image residing on a document so as to convert the original image into image data; a binary-coded image data generating section to generate binary-coded image data by applying a binary-coding processing to the image data; an image-data storing section to store the image data or the binary-coded image data; a designating section to designate an outputting function among the plurality of outputting functions; a resolution setting section to set an output-image resolution, based on an output resolution of the outputting function; and a resolution converting section to convert a resolution of either the image data or the binary-coded image data, stored in the image-data storing section, to the output-image resolution set by the resolution setting section.
