Abstract:
An apparatus which forms an electrostatic latent image by exposing a charged photosensitive member with light. The apparatus identifies a pixel which has density value less than a threshold value and is sandwiched in a predetermined direction between two pixels having density values greater than or equal to the threshold value in image data, generates screen image data by screen processing on the image data, and outputs, for each of one pixel of the two pixels sandwiching the identified pixel and a pixel adjacent to the one pixel in the predetermined direction, an adjusted density value the screen image data.

Claim (Index 6):
The apparatus according to  claim 2 , wherein the adjustment unit adjusts the density value of each of the one pixel and the adjacent pixel, so that a peak of a potential formed on the photosensitive member by the exposure of the one pixel and the adjacent pixel by the image forming unit comes to a position between the one pixel and the adjacent pixel and a magnitude of the potential becomes greater than a predetermined potential.
