A graphic image that has pixels arranged in rows and columns is scaled by processing a succession of segments. Each segment comprises contiguous pixels. The row and column dimensions of each segment do not correspond to an intended degree of scaling in both dimensions. The processing of each segment produces an intermediate pixel. The intermediate pixels form a stream. The intermediate stream of pixels is processed to form a final two-dimensional scaled image.
