Abstract

An image information processing system includes an image data input portion, an image data-base portion, a high-speed image data-base portion, a buffer memory, and an image data output portion. The image data-base portion stores highly compressed data; the high-speed image data-base portion stores high-speed compressable data; and the buffer memory stores data for a current output. The image data-base portion, the high-speed image data-base portion and the buffer memory are given a hierarchical structure. The image information processing system includes any combination of data for area blocking, a unit for stacking, a unit for adding sound information, and a unit for linking data.
