Abstract
There exists a problem that, for registration correction, carrying out less-than-one-pixel-basis correction and one-pixel-basis correction for an image after half toning using screen processing causes unevenness in density when it is hard for linearity of image density against a PWM to come out. Processing of interpolation is carried out so that the way how a halfdot is formed may always becomes the same after the interpolation processing. By applying a matrix in consideration of a dot direction which may be broken by the interpolation processing at the time of the screen processing, conversion in which a way of locating the half dot maintains relation of vertical inversion in a subscanning direction is carried out, and less-than-one-pixel-basis correction is carried out.
