Abstract:
An image processing apparatus extracts, from color image data, an object having a first density and an object having a second density being higher than the first density, and determines whether or not sizes of the objects each having the first density and the second density are greater than a predetermined size. When converting the color image data into monochromatic image data, an object having the first density and a size less than or equal to the predetermined size is converted to have a higher density than an object having the first density and a size greater than the predetermined size, and an object having the second density and a size less than or equal to the predetermined size is converted to have the same density as an object having the second density and a size greater than the predetermined size.

Claim (Index 13):
A non-transitory computer-readable storage medium storing a program for causing a processor to execute a method for controlling an image processing apparatus, the method comprising:\n extracting, from color image data, an object having a first density and an object having a second density that is higher than the first density; determining whether or not a size of the object having the first density and a size of the object having the second density, extracted in the step of extracting, are greater than a predetermined size; and converting the color image data into monochromatic image data, wherein the converting carries out conversion so that an object having the first density and a size less than or equal to the predetermined size has a higher density than an object having the first density and a size greater than the predetermined size, and carries out conversion so that an object having the second density and a size less than or equal to the predetermined size has the same density as an object having the second density and a size greater than the predetermined size.
