Image processing device implements image processing method to perform thinning and smoothing process on image data converted from first resolution to second resolution

摘要

An image processing device includes: a first matching circuit to determine whether an image matrix of image data of a first resolution matches a first pattern, and output a first determination resu a first converting circuit to, if the image matrix matches the first pattern, replace a target pixel of the image matrix with a first pixel pattern of a second resolution, and output first image data of the second resolution; a second converting circuit to convert the image data of the first resolution into image data of the second resolution, and output second image data of the second resolution; a detecting circuit to detect whether the target pixel is included in a fine line structure, and output a detection resu and a selecting circuit to output one of the first image data and the second image data based on the first determination result and the detection result.
