1. An image processing method which generates color image data for previewing an image to be formed by a color image forming apparatus, the method comprising the steps of:
- discriminating an object type of data for the image from among an image object, a text object, and a graphics object;
selecting a color conversion process for converting the data based on the discriminated object type, a different color conversion process being selected for each object type; and
generating color image data for previewing the image by performing the selected color conversion process on the data for the image.

Abstract
An image processing method generates color image data for previewing an object image to be formed by a color image forming apparatus. The method discriminates a type of the object image based on color image data for the object image, and generates color image data for previewing the object image by performing a color conversion process on the color image data for the object image. The color conversion process is performed in accordance with the type of the object image.

8. An image processing method comprising the steps of:
-
setting either a normal display mode or a preview display mode; wherein, in a case that the preview display mode is set in said setting step, the method comprises; discriminating an object type of data for the image from among an image object, a text object, and a graphics object; selecting a color conversion process for converting the data based on the discriminated object type, a different color conversion process being selected for each object type; and generating color image data for previewing the image by performing the selected color conversion process on the data for the image, the color image data generated in the generating step representing a preview image corresponding to a color image to be formed by a color image forming apparatus. - View Dependent Claims (12)
