Abstract

An input processor performs an input processing of image data. A memory unit has a work area for combining the image data. A writing unit sequentially writes the image data on which the input processing is performed in the work area of the memory unit. A determining unit determines, when the image data are combined, whether image data to be arranged in a direction orthogonal to an image output direction are written in the work area. An output processor performs, when it is determined that the image data are written in the work area, an output processing of the image data to be arranged in the direction orthogonal to the image output direction.
