Abstract
An image information acquisition unit obtains first print image information that is binarized with the use of a first threshold matrix. A threshold matrix information acquisition unit obtains information representing the first threshold matrix. A determining unit divides the first print image information obtained by the image information acquisition unit into a plurality of portions, and determines whether each of the divided portions includes contour information, based on the first threshold matrix obtained by the threshold matrix information acquisition unit. A generating unit generates second print image information by performing a re-binarizing operation for each of the divided portions of the first print image information with the use of a second threshold matrix that is different from the first threshold matrix, based on the determination result of the determining unit.
