Abstract:
An image processing apparatus comprising:input means for inputting a color image formed from a plurality of color components; setting means for an operator to regulate a color change of the input color image by selectively setting density adjustment values for the plurality of color components of the input color image; forming means for forming density data indicative of the set density adjustment values of the plurality of color components of the input color image; density conversion means for converting density levels of the plurality of color components of the input color image in accordance with the density adjustment values selectively set by said setting means; color-process means for color-processing the input color image on the basis of the converted density levels of the plurality of color components to form a test color image; and a printer for printing the test color image and the density data on a recording medium, wherein the operator evaluates a color change to the input color image by viewing the printed test color image and density data to determine if further color change is needed by changing the set density adjustment values indicated by the printed density data.
