Abstract:
An image forming apparatus that is capable of improving a specified-color removal process. An obtaining unit obtains color image data. A color specification unit specifies removal color. A specified-color removal unit removes color that is determined to be removed according to determination based on a brightness threshold and a first saturation threshold about the removal color from the color image data obtained.

Claim (Index 8):
A control method for an image forming apparatus obtaining color image data, the control method comprising:\n a color specification step of specifying removal color; and a specified-color removal step of removing color that is determined to be removed according to determination based on a brightness threshold and a first saturation threshold about the removal color from the color image data obtained.
