Patent ID: 7965889

Claim:
An image processing apparatus comprising: an image display unit configured to display an image; a color conversion unit configured to perform color conversion of color information in the image displayed on the image display unit, wherein the color conversion converts color information of a conversion source color existing in the image displayed on the image display unit into color information of a conversion destination color; an acquisition unit configured to acquire color information from a predetermined area in the image displayed on the image display unit in a color conversion mode in which the color conversion unit operates; a determination unit configured to determine the conversion source color and the conversion destination color, at least one of the conversion source color and the conversion destination color being determined based on the color information acquired by the acquisition unit; an enlargement unit configured to enlarge the image to be displayed on the image display unit using a pixel interpolation processing; an instruction unit configured to instruct an enlargement magnification to the enlargement unit; and a control unit configured to limit the enlargement magnification instructed by the instruction unit to a value equal to or less than a predetermined value in the color conversion mode so that the predetermined number of pixels which are not interpolation-processed and used for the color conversion by the color conversion unit in the predetermined area of the enlarged image by pixel interpolation can be assured, wherein in the color conversion mode, the enlargement unit enlarges the image at the enlargement magnification limited by the control unit, and wherein the color conversion unit, the acquisition unit, the determination unit, the enlargement unit, the instruction unit and the control unit are implemented by one or more processors.
