Abstract
A magnetic toner for developing an electrostatic image has magnetic toner particles containing at least a binder resin and magnetic iron oxide particles. The magnetic iron oxide particles have been surface-treated with an aliphatic alcohol having carbon atoms of from 12 to 300 on the average. The magnetic toner has a weight average particle diameter of 13.5 .mu.m or smaller, and contains magnetic toner particles with particle diameters of 3.17 .mu.m or smaller in an amount not less than 1% by number as number-based percentage determined from number distribution.
