Abstract: On receiving FAX image data, an image forming apparatus determines whether or not a security code is superimposed on the image data. If superimposed, the image forming apparatus stored the content of the security code and erases the superimposed security code from the image. Thereafter, the image forming apparatus creates a higher-resolution security code including the same information as that of the stored security code. The FAX image is converted into a higher-resolution image. The higher-resolution security code is superimposed on the FAX image with a higher resolution resulted from the conversion, and the resultant FAX image is printed.

Abstract: An isolated point detection portion detects an isolated point in image data input from an image data adjustment portion. An isolated point removal portion makes a replacement of image data at a point of an isolated point detected by the isolated point detection portion. An edge identification portion performs edge identification for identifying a character region for the image data from which the isolated point has been removed by the isolated point removal portion. In this technique, edge identification is performed after the isolated point is erased by performing isolated point identification as a preliminary step of edge identification, so that isolated point noise can be removed with high accuracy.
