Abstract:
1. An image processing device comprising: a rewriting unit that extracts attribute information of each image object from first page description language data and adds a special color space designating command including at least one color name parameter that represents the attribute information of each of the extracted image objects to rewrite the first page description language data into second page description language data; an RIP unit that interprets the second page description language data rewritten by the rewriting unit to obtain each pixel value of printing image data for a printing device; and a color converting unit that performs a color conversion process during the processing of the RIP unit, wherein the rewriting unit and the color converting unit share information on the correspondence between a color space and a combination of color name parameters for expressing the color space, and the rewriting unit adds a command which includes color name parameters by the same number as the number of colors in a color space of the image object designated in the first page description language data and which represents the attribute information of the image object by a combination of at least one of the color name parameters as the special color space designating command added for each image object, and the rewriting unit adds the command by extracting a description from a command description for designating color space attribute information of the image object.
