Image processing according to image output mode

Abstract

Picture quality adjustment processing is executed using picture quality adjustment parameter value sets corresponding to a plurality of output modes. First and second image processing modules can execute the same picture quality adjustment, and they can utilize picture quality adjustment parameters in common. If picture quality adjustment is executed by the first image processing module, picture quality adjustment by the second image processing module is prohibited.

1 . A method of processing image data comprising:
 determining, according to whether picture quality of image data has been adjusted or not, whether or not to execute picture quality adjustment; and   executing picture quality adjustment of the image data in case it is determined to execute the picture quality adjustment.   
   
   
       2 . A method according to  claim 1 , further comprising:
 providing a plurality of parameter value sets in association with a plurality of models of output units, respectively, each parameter value set including a picture quality adjustment parameter value; and   outputting the quality-adjusted image data to an output unit, wherein   in the executing of the picture quality adjustment, a parameter value set is used, the parameter value set being associated with a model of the output unit used in the outputting of the quality-adjusted image data.   
   
   
       3 . An image processing device comprising:
 a determination module that determines, according to whether picture quality of image data has been adjusted or not, whether or not to execute picture quality adjustment; and   a picture quality adjusting module that executes the picture quality adjustment of the image data in a case it is determined to execute the picture quality adjustment.   
   
   
       4 . A computer program product comprising:
 a computer readable medium; and   a computer program stored on the computer readable medium, the computer program including:   a first computer program for causing a computer to determine, according to whether picture quality of image data has been adjusted or not, whether or not to execute picture quality adjustment; and   a second computer program for causing the computer to execute the picture quality adjustment of the image data in case it is determined to execute the picture quality adjustment.
