Claim 17:
18. A recording apparatus that forms an image on a three-dimensional object, the apparatus comprising:
a head unit ejecting a liquid; and
a controller controlling an ejection of a liquid from the head unit
so that the image is formed on the object by a plurality of dots formed by the liquid ejected from the head unit, wherein
the controller controls an ejection of a liquid from the head unit so that
when the object has a first face,
a distribution of a plurality of dots in the first face has a frequency characteristic in which an amount of high frequency components in a range of spatial frequencies higher than a predetermined frequency is larger than an amount of low frequency components in a range of spatial frequencies lower than the predetermined frequency in a spatial frequency domain, and
when the object has a second face extending in a direction different from a direction of the first face,
a distribution of a plurality of dots in the second face has a frequency characteristic in which an amount of high frequency components in a range of spatial frequencies higher than a predetermined frequency is larger than an amount of low frequency components in a range of spatial frequencies lower than the predetermined frequency in a spatial frequency domain.
