Abstract
Image-processing device for ROP is disclosed. Upon receiving a ROP command, the image-processing device determines whether the size of the brush data is required to be modified through a size modifying operation, based on the printing resolution of the printing device. If the size modifying operation is necessary, the image-processing device performs a process to enlarge or reduce the brush data, depending on the printing resolution. The image-processing device converts the ROP code associated with the operational expression using brush data to a combination of ROP codes associated with operational expressions using the source bitmap, but not brush data. The image-processing device controls a ROP processor to perform the ROP processes corresponding to these ROP codes using the enlarged or reduced brush data as the source bitmap in order to implement a ROP process equivalent to the ROP code inputted with the ROP command.
