Abstract

An image processing device includes a pattern type determination unit in which a predetermined pattern is determined corresponding to color information of an image; a region setting unit in which a predetermined region in the image is set; an image data generation unit in which image data including the image and the pattern are included; and a size correction unit in which a size of the pattern is changed corresponding to a size of the region, or a position correction unit in which a positional relationship between a characteristic portion from which a type of the pattern included in the pattern which is determined in the pattern type determination unit can be discriminated and the region which is set in the region setting unit is corrected.

First claim

What is claimed is:

1. An image processing device comprising:
a pattern type determination unit which correlates color information of an image with a predetermined pattern;
a region setting unit which sets a predetermined region of the image as an area for applying the predetermined pattern;
an image data generation unit which creates image data which includes the image and the predetermined pattern; and
a correction unit which corrects a position of a characteristic portion…
