DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION

[0001]

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 1. Field of the Invention The present invention relates to a method of processing a non-starting character in a ruled line frame for performing a prohibition process on a non-starting character.

[0002]

2. Description of the Related Art Normally, when creating a document such as Japanese, ".", ",", ")" Etc. are prohibited from appearing at the beginning of a line.

In the conventional non-start-of-line processing, when a non-start-of-line character appears at the beginning of a sentence, a "hanging process" is added to the right end of the preceding line.
I'm trying to do. However, in the ruled line frame, it is not possible to fold the characters inside the ruled line frame and perform the “hanging process”. For example, as shown in FIG. 10, the character string is arranged in the ruled line without performing the prohibition process. I was trying to display it.

[0004]

As described above, when a document is input into the ruled line frame for display and printing, the "hanging process" cannot be performed at the position of the ruled line, and the prohibition process is performed as it is. Since it was displayed and printed without a problem, there was a problem that the text in the ruled line frame was difficult to see.

In order to solve this problem, the present invention combines the non-starting-line character with the ruled line at the end of the preceding line when the non-starting-line character is located at the beginning of the line in the character string input in the ruled line frame. The purpose is to replace the pattern with a pattern or to add a control code and replace it with a pattern with the ruled line at the end of the previous line at the time of output to enable prohibition processing within the ruled line frame. .

[0006]

Means for solving the problem will be described with reference to FIG. In FIG. 1, when the character entered in the ruled-line frame is a character that is not a head-of-line character and is located at the beginning of the line, the prohibited-line-in-line detection unit 2 in the ruled line frame and the ruled line at the end of the previous line are detected. Replace the ruled line with the character code of the pattern that combines and, and replace the ruled line at the end of the previous line with the kinsoku processing control code, the relevant line beginning kinsoku character code and ruled line code, and the kinsoku character is the kinsoku processing control code and the subject line beginning. It is also used as a character string replaced with a prohibited character code.

The character generators 5 and 8 are for pre-storing patterns in which prohibited characters at the beginning of a line and ruled lines are combined.

[0008]

According to the present invention, as shown in FIG. 1, when the ruled-line-in-line-break-prohibition detecting unit 2 detects that a character entered in the ruled line frame is a start-of-line prohibition character and is located at the start of the line, the line-start The prohibited characters and the ruled line at the end of the previous line are replaced with the character code of the pattern, and the combined pattern is taken out from the character generators 5 and 8 at the time of output and output (display, print, etc.).

Further, when the ruled-line-inhibiting-in-line-detection section 2 detects that the character entered in the ruled line frame is a line-inhibiting character and is located at the beginning of the line, the rule-in-process control of the ruled line at the end of the preceding line is performed. Replace with the code, the non-starting character code and the ruled line code, and when the prohibition processing control code appears at the time of output, the pattern of the non-starting character code and the ruled line code are combined, and the pattern after the combination is output. ing.

Further, when the ruled-line-in-line-break detection unit 2 detects that the character entered in the ruled line frame is a line-inhibited character and is located at the beginning of a line, the line-inhibited character is treated as a line-inhibited processing control code and the corresponding line-inhibited character. A character string that replaces the beginning-of-line prohibition character code is created, and when the prohibition-processing control code appears during output processing from the beginning, the pattern of the beginning-of-line prohibition character code and the pattern of the ruled line code at the end of the line are combined. The pattern after this composition is output to the position of the ruled line at the end of the line.

Therefore, when the non-starting-line character among the characters entered in the ruled-line frame is located at the beginning of the line, the ruled line is replaced by the character code of the pattern in which the non-starting-line character is combined with the ruled line at the end of the preceding line. The kinsoku processing control code and non-starting character code are added to the ruled line, or the non-starting character is replaced by the kinsoku processing control code and the non-starting character code, and the non-starting character is combined with the ruled line at the end of the previous line at the time of output. By outputting the pattern, it becomes possible to perform the line-break prohibition processing of the character string input in the ruled line frame.

DESCRIPTION OF THE PREFERRED EMBODIMENTS Next, the configuration and operation of an embodiment of the present invention will be described in detail with reference to FIGS.

FIG. 1 shows a block diagram of an embodiment of the present invention.
In FIG. 1, the keyboard 1 is for inputting characters and the like, and here is for inputting characters within the frame of ruled lines.

When the character entered in the ruled line frame is a character which is prohibited at the beginning of a line and is located at the beginning of a line, the ruled-line-in-the-line-in-rule detection unit 2 detects the prohibited character at the beginning of a line and the ruled line at the end of the preceding line. For example, the ruled line is replaced with the character code of the pattern in which the.

The document data 3 is document data composed of a character string input in a ruled frame. With respect to the document data 3, the display control unit 4 refers to the display character generator 5 to display the characters in the ruled line frame on the display 6 after the constraint processing. Here, when the document data 3 is sequentially read and the character code that combines the non-starting character and the ruled line together, which is replaced by the ruled line in the ruled-line frame, the character generator 5 for display uses the character code. The combined character pattern (dot pattern or vector font) is taken out, and the result of the inline prohibition process in the ruled line frame is displayed based on this character pattern.
It is displayed above (for example, refer to the example in which “.” In FIG. 9 is displayed at the end of the line).

Character generator for display 5
Is a character pattern (dot pattern or vector font) previously stored in association with a character code. Here, in addition to the character pattern of the normal character code, a character pattern in which the prohibited characters at the beginning and ruled lines are combined is also stored in advance.

The display 6 displays characters and the like, and in this case, displays a character string within the frame of the ruled line after the beginning-of-line prohibition process. The printer control unit 7 refers to the printer character generator 8 for the document data 3, and the printer 9 prohibits the characters within the frame of the ruled line and prints it on paper. Here, the document data 3 is sequentially read, and the rule-in-the-line-in-line prohibition detection unit 2
When a character code that combines a ruled line with a non-breaking character that has been replaced with a ruled line by is extracted a character pattern (dot pattern or vector font) that is combined by the character code from the printer character generator 8 and this character pattern Based on the above, the result of performing the inline-prohibition process in the ruled line frame is printed on the paper by the printer 9 (for example, refer to the example in which “.” In FIG. 9 is printed at the end of the line).

The character generator 8 for printer is
A character pattern (dot pattern or vector font) is stored in advance in association with a character code. Here, in addition to the character pattern of the normal character code,
Further, a character pattern in which the non-starting character and the ruled line are combined is also stored in advance.

The printer 9 prints on a sheet of paper, and here, prints a character string in the frame of a ruled line by performing a line head prohibition process. FIG. 2 shows an example of a prohibition processing pattern of the present invention. This is a character pattern (dot pattern or vector font) stored in advance in the display character generator 5 and the printer character generator 8 in FIG. 1 in association with the character code.
For example, the upper left character pattern is "."
And a vertical ruled line “|” are combined, and a unique character code is assigned. Similarly, as shown in the figure, a character pattern in which a ruled line and a non-starting character are combined is stored in the display character generator 5 or the printer character generator 8 in association with a unique character code.

Next, the operation of the configuration of FIG. 1 will be described in detail according to the order shown in the flowchart of FIG. In FIG. 3, S1 receives a character from the keyboard and analyzes it. This is because the operator receives the character (character code) from the keyboard 1 by inputting a character string in the frame of the ruled line, and the inline-breaking rule detection unit 2 in the ruled-line frame determines whether it is a line-inhibited character. Analyze whether it is the beginning of a line.

In S2, it is determined whether the character is a non-starting character. In this case, the ruled-line-in-line-break detection unit 2 in S1 determines whether the character entered in the ruled line frame is a prohibited-line-start character. Y
In the case of ES, it is further determined in S3 whether it is the beginning of the line, and YE
If S, the process proceeds to S4, and if NO, the process proceeds to S5. On the other hand, in the case of NO, the character is not a non-prohibited character, and thus the process proceeds to S5.

In S4, it is determined by YES in S2 and YES in S3 that the character entered in the frame of the ruled line is a non-start-of-line character and is located at the beginning of the line. The character code of the vertical ruled line at the right end of the line is replaced with the character code of the pattern in which the vertical ruled line and the prohibited character are combined. As a result, for example, as shown in FIG. 9, the character code of the vertical ruled line “|” is replaced with the character code of the pattern in which the vertical ruled line “|” of FIG.

S5 is determined to be a non-prohibited character by NO in S2, or YES in S2 and NO in S3, but it is determined that the character is not a non-prohibited character but is not located at the beginning of the line.
The character code of the input character is stored in the document data 3.

As described above, regarding the character code of the character input from the keyboard 1 in the frame of the ruled line, the ruled line is a character that is a non-starting character and a pattern in which the pattern of the non-starting character and the vertical ruled line are combined at the beginning of the line. The codes are replaced and stored in the document data 3, while the character codes of other characters are stored in the document data 3 as they are.

Next, in S6, the display control unit 4
Character codes are sequentially taken out from the document data 3, a character generator (for display) 5 is referenced to form a character pattern, and the character pattern is displayed on the display 6. At this time, S
If the character code that combined the prohibited-start-line character and the ruled line pattern is replaced in step 4, the pattern obtained by combining the prohibited-start-line character and the ruled line corresponding to this character code is taken out and displayed on the display 6. On the other hand, in the case of the normal character code and ruled line code, the normal character pattern is taken out and displayed on the display 6 as it is.

As described above, based on the document data 3, it is possible to display the result of the line-breaking process in which the line-breaking character and the ruled line are combined, as shown in FIG.

Similarly, in step S7, the printer control unit 7 sequentially extracts character codes from the document data 3, refers to the character generator (for printer) 8 to form a character pattern, and causes the printer 9 to print on a sheet. At this time, S
If the character code that combined the prohibited-start-of-line character and the ruled line pattern is replaced in 4, the pattern after combining the prohibited-start-of-line character and the ruled line corresponding to this character code is taken out and printed on paper. On the other hand, in the case of the normal character code and ruled line code, the normal character pattern is taken out as it is and printed on the paper.

As described above, based on the document data 3, it is possible to print the result of line-inhibition processing within the frame of the ruled line as shown in FIG. 9 in which the line-inhibited character and the ruled line are combined.

Next, the configuration and operation of another embodiment of the present invention will be described in detail with reference to FIGS. FIG. 4 shows a block diagram of another embodiment of the present invention.

In FIG. 4, the keyboard 11 is for inputting characters and the like, and here is for inputting characters within the frame of ruled lines. Ruled-line-in-the-line prohibited section detection unit 12
Detects that the character entered in the ruled line frame is a non-starting line character and is located at the beginning of the line, the character code of this non-starting line character is set to the prohibition processing control code, non-starting line character code, and ruled line code. It is replaced with the three codes of.

The document data 13 is document data composed of a character string or the like input in a ruled line frame. The display control unit 14 sequentially reads and analyzes a character code from the document data 13, and when the character code is a character code, inputs the character code to the display character generator 15 to synthesize a character pattern (dot pattern, font pattern). It is stored (developed) in the VRAM 18 via.
On the other hand, in the case of the prohibition processing control code, the following character code is input to the display character generator 15 and the read character pattern is used as the prohibition character pattern temporary storage unit 1.
6, the temporary storage instruction signal is sent, the next character code is input to the display character generator 15, the read character pattern is input to the synthesizing unit 17, and the synthesizing instruction signal is sent to output the synthesizing unit. It is made to be combined with 17.

Character generator 1 for display
5 is for inputting a character code and outputting a character pattern. The prohibited character pattern temporary storage unit 16 temporarily stores the character pattern read from the display character generator 15 in response to a temporary storage instruction signal from the display control unit 14.

The synthesizing unit 17 synthesizes the character pattern read from the prohibited character pattern temporary storage unit 16 and the character pattern read from the display character generator 15. For example, the pattern "." Of the prohibited character at the beginning of the line and the pattern "|" of the ruled line are combined to generate the pattern of FIG.

The VRAM 18 is a video RAM,
The pattern after being synthesized by the synthesizing unit 17 is developed and output as a serial video signal to the display 19 to display characters and the like.

The display 19 is for displaying characters and the like, and for example, as shown in FIG. 9, displays the pattern after the prohibition processing within the frame of the ruled line. next,
The operation of the configuration of FIG. 4 will be described in detail according to the order shown in the flowchart of FIG.

In FIG. 5, in step S11, characters are received from the keyboard and analyzed. This is because the operator receives a character (character code) from the keyboard 11 by inputting a character in the ruled line frame, and the ruled-line-inhibiting rule detection unit 12 receives the character Analyzes whether it is the beginning of.

In S12, it is determined whether the character is a non-starting character. In S11, the ruled-line-in-the-line-prohibition detecting section 12 determines whether the character string input in the ruled line frame is the in-line-prohibited character. In the case of YES, it is further determined in S13 whether it is the head of the line, the process proceeds to S14 if YES, or S15 if NO.
Proceed to. On the other hand, in the case of NO, since the character is not a non-starting character, the process proceeds to S15.

S14 is YES in S12 and YE in S13.
Since it is determined by S that the character entered in the frame of the ruled line is a prohibited character at the beginning of the line and is located at the beginning of the line, the character code of the vertical ruled line at the right end of the previous line in the document data is prohibited. Replace with process control code, non-starting character code, vertical ruled line code. As a result, the vertical ruled code → prohibited processing control code + prohibited line beginning character code + vertical ruled line code are replaced and stored in the document data 13.

In S15, the character code of the character input to the document data 3 is determined by NO in S12 because it is not a non-prohibited character, or by YES in S12 and NO in S13, it is a non-prohibited character but not located at the beginning of the line. To store.

As described above, regarding the character codes of the characters input from the keyboard 11 into the frame of the ruled line, the prohibited character at the beginning of the line and the prohibited prohibited character at the beginning of the line are converted into the prohibited process control code, the prohibited character code, and the vertical ruled line code. It is replaced and stored in the document data 13, and when the character code of the other character is stored, it is stored in the document data 13 as it is.

Next, in S16, the display control unit 14
, Sequentially retrieves the character code from the document data 13, and stores the character pattern retrieved from the character generator (for display) 15 for the next prohibited character code in the prohibited character pattern temporary storage unit 16 when it is the prohibited character control code. Further, for the next vertical ruled line code, the character pattern extracted from the character generator (for display) 15 is input to the synthesizing unit 17, and the character pattern read from the prohibited character pattern temporary storage unit 16 is input to the synthesizing unit 17. The pattern after being synthesized is stored (developed) in the VRAM 18. And VRA
The video signal read from M18 is input to the display 19 to display the result of prohibition processing within the frame of the ruled line.

Based on the above, based on the document data 13,
It is possible to display the result of the process of prohibiting the beginning of a line within the frame of the ruled line as shown in FIG. 9 in which the prohibited characters at the beginning of the line and the ruled line are combined.

FIG. 6 is a functional explanatory diagram of the synthesizing unit of the present invention. This shows a state of synthesizing by the synthesizing unit 17 in FIG. The synthesizing unit 17 receives, for example, the output character pattern “|” of the character generator 15 and the output character pattern “.” Of the prohibited character pattern temporary storage unit 16 and synthesizes the two to form a pattern as illustrated.
As a result, when displayed at the position shown as in FIG. 9, it is possible to display and print the result of prohibition processing at the position of the vertical ruled line “|” at the end of the previous line for the prohibited line beginning character pattern “.”. .

FIG. 7 shows a structural example (1) of the document data of the present invention. When a prohibited character appears, set "Overlay display attribute" in the attribute data of the vertical ruled line at the right end of the previous line, store the code of the prohibited character in the extended area, and link from the attribute data to this extended area. Stretch. As a result, the vertical ruled line at the right end of the prohibited character and the information indicating that the prohibited character is to be processed are set.

Next, at the time of output, the display control unit 14
When the "overlay display attribute" is detected, the character pattern corresponding to the character code in the linked extended area is read from the character generator 15 and a temporary storage instruction signal is issued so as to be taken into the prohibited character pattern temporary storage unit 16. . Then, the character pattern of the ruled line is read from the character generator 15 and input to the synthesizing unit 17, and at the same time, the character pattern read from the prohibited character pattern temporary storage unit 16 is input and an instruction is issued to synthesize the character pattern.
Then, the synthesizing unit 17 synthesizes these two character patterns.

FIG. 8 shows a structural example (2) of the document data of the present invention. In this case, when a prohibited character at the beginning of a line appears at the beginning of a line, two characters of a prohibited processing control code and a prohibited character code at the beginning are stored as character data.

Next, at the time of output, the display control unit 14
When the prohibition processing control code is detected, the character pattern corresponding to the next character code in the character data is read from the character generator 15 and a temporary storage instruction signal is issued so as to be taken into the prohibition character pattern temporary storage unit 16. Then, the character pattern of the ruled line at the same display position is read from the character generator 15 and input to the synthesizing unit 17, and at the same time, the character pattern read from the prohibited character pattern temporary storage unit 16 is input to issue an instruction to synthesize. . Then, the synthesizing unit 17 synthesizes these two character patterns.

FIG. 9 shows a display example of the present invention. here,
The thick line represents the ruled line frame, and the thin line represents the boundary for displaying / printing one character. The cells of these thin lines correspond to one character data in FIGS. 7 and 8. Since the character data is a one-dimensional character data string and the prohibition processing control code according to the present invention is embedded therein, the character code excluding the prohibition processing control code from the beginning is a thin line of the grid. Will correspond to.

FIG. 9 shows the result of the prohibition process in the ruled line frame according to the present invention. Here, the vertical ruled line “|” and the non-starting line character “.” Are combined together and displayed / printed at the position of the vertical ruled line.

[0050]

As described above, according to the present invention,
Among the characters entered in the ruled line frame, when the non-starting-line character is located at the beginning of the line, replace the ruled line with the character code of the pattern in which the non-starting-line character is combined with the ruled line at the end of the previous line, or control the line processing Adds a code or non-starting character code or replaces the non-starting character code with a prohibition processing control code or non-starting character code, and outputs a pattern in which the non-starting character is combined with the ruled line at the end of the previous line. Since the configuration is adopted, it is possible to perform the prohibition on the beginning of a character string input in the ruled line frame. As a result, the document processing apparatus can perform the non-start-of-line character processing within the ruled line frame, and can create a high-quality document (display display, print output).
