1. A method of processing an image by way of gradation conversion, comprising the steps of:
- specifying plural attentional portions on a displayed image;
generating a first gradation corrective function with respect to density values of the plural specified attentional portions;
correcting a preset gradation conversion characteristic with the first gradation corrective function; and
converting the gradation of said image according to the corrected gradation conversion characteristic,wherein the first gradation corrective function which corrects a predetermined area of the preset gradation conversion characteristic is generated based the displayed image,wherein the attentional portions are specified by setting a designation mark on the displayed image, and a second gradation corrective function which corrects the gradation conversion characteristic with respect to gradations of the attentional portions is generated, and the gradation conversion characteristic is corrected based on the first and second gradation corrective functions.

Abstract
An attentional portion to be corrected in gradation of an image is specified, and a gradation corrective function with respect to a density of the specified attentional portion is generated. Preset gradation conversion characteristics are corrected with the gradation corrective function, and the gradation of the image is converted according to the corrected gradation conversion characteristics. The gradation conversion characteristics can be corrected in the vicinity of a desired density.

8. A method of processing an image by way of gradation conversion, comprising the steps of:
-
specifying an attentional portion of an image, said attentional portion including a combination of plural color signals; generating a first gradation corrective function with respect to density values of the plural color signals of the specified attentional portion; correcting a preset gradation conversion characteristic with said first gradation corrective function; and converting the gradation of said image according to the corrected gradation conversion characteristic, wherein the first gradation corrective function which corrects a predetermined area of the preset gradation conversion characteristic is generated based the displayed image, wherein the attentional portion is specified by setting a designation mark on the displayed image, and a second gradation corrective function which corrects the gradation conversion characteristic with respect to gradation of the attentional portion is generated, and the gradation conversion characteristic is corrected based on the first and second gradation corrective functions.

9. A method of processing a color image by way of color correction, comprising the steps of:
-
specifying plural attentional portions of the color image; generating a first color corrective function with respect to density values of color signals of the plural specified attentional portions; and correcting said color with said first color corrective function, wherein the first color corrective function which corrects color of a predetermined area is generated based the displayed image, wherein the attentional portions are specified by setting a designation mark on the displayed image, and a second color corrective function which corrects the color of the attentional portions is generated, and the color is corrected based on the first and second color corrective functions.
