DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION

[0001]

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 1. Field of the Invention The present invention relates to a document processing apparatus such as a Japanese word processor and a personal computer capable of creating a document, and more particularly to a document processing apparatus having a ruled line display function.

[0002]

2. Description of the Related Art As a conventional document processing apparatus having this kind of ruled line display function, there is known a document processing apparatus in which ruled line data is stored as vector ruled line data as coordinate values and displayed on a screen. In such a document processing apparatus, the coordinates of the sentence data are set as character coordinates, and the coordinates of the ruled line data are set as ruled line coordinates, each having coordinate data, and the sentence and the ruled line are simultaneously displayed on the screen.

Japanese Patent Laid-Open No. 1-30 discloses a system which can simultaneously move, copy and delete characters and ruled lines.
A document creation method described in Japanese Patent Application No. 9171 is known.
This is because the ruled line and the line maintain the relative positional relationship, so there is always linked information indicating the positional relationship between the ruled line and the related line. Whether or not there is a ruled line to be checked is checked, and the ruled line is moved in conjunction with the line.

On the other hand, a character dedicated to ruled lines is prepared,
There is known a document processing apparatus which treats ruled line data as character ruled lines in the same way as characters. In such a document processing apparatus, a character ruled line is treated as a part of a character, and a sentence and a ruled line are displayed on a screen.

[0005]

However, in a document processing apparatus in which ruled line data is stored as coordinate values as vector ruled line data and displayed on a screen, the manner in which coordinate data is held between text data and ruled line data. Because of the differences, even if the characters and the ruled lines are displayed on the same line,
The coordinates do not match. Therefore, for example, when moving the table data, the character and the ruled line cannot be moved at the same time, and it is necessary to move the character and the ruled line separately, such as moving the ruled line after moving the character. there were.

In the document creation method described in Japanese Patent Application Laid-Open No. 1-309171, linked information is provided for each ruled line. Therefore, when the number of ruled lines increases, the linked information increases and a large storage capacity is required. Met.

Further, in a document processing apparatus in which a character dedicated to a ruled line is prepared and the ruled line data is treated as a character ruled line in the same way as a character, when a character in a table is moved or erased together with the ruled line, There was a problem that a part of the ruled line was left or chipped.

The present invention has been made in view of such circumstances. In a document processing apparatus using a character ruled line, when a character ruled line is moved, copied, erased, or the like, the movement source and the movement are determined. It is an object of the present invention to convert a character ruled line adjacent to the head or the like, to shape the ruled line, and to save the trouble of re-inputting the ruled line.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE PREFERRED EMBODIMENTS The present invention will be described below in detail with reference to the embodiments shown in the drawings. Note that the present invention is not limited to this.

Embodiment 1 FIG. 2 is a block diagram showing the configuration of an embodiment in which the present invention is applied to a Japanese word processor. In this embodiment, a case will be described in which the present apparatus is a Japanese word processor that stores ruled line data as vector ruled line data as coordinate values and displays it on a screen.

In this figure, 1 is a CPU (central processing unit) for executing a program, 2 is a RAM for storing various data, 3 is a ROM for storing a control program, 4 is a key interface, 5 is a keyboard, and 6 is a keyboard. The display controller 7 is a display device.

The key interface 4 includes a keyboard 5
And determines the pressed key and outputs a data signal corresponding to the determined key. The display controller 6 converts data from the CPU 1 and displays the data on the display device 7.

From the keyboard 5, sentence data including a large number of character data and ruled line data are input. CPU
1 stores the input text data and ruled line data in the RAM 2 and displays the stored text data and ruled line data via the display controller 6. Then, the character coordinates of each displayed character and the ruled line coordinates of each ruled line are stored in the RAM 2.

Further, when an area is designated by the cursor for editing processing such as erasing, moving, copying, etc., for the character stored in the RAM 2, the CPU 1 executes a ruled line included in the designated area, or The ruled line coordinates of the ruled line adjacent to the boundary of the designated area are converted into character coordinates, and the ruled line at the converted character coordinates is stored in the RAM 2.

Thereafter, for example, if movement is designated as an editing process, the character is moved to the destination, the ruled coordinates of the stored ruled line are calculated from the character coordinates of the destination, and the ruled line coordinate position is calculated. Then, the stored ruled line is moved.

FIG. 3 is an explanatory diagram showing an example of how to hold the coordinate values of the text data and the ruled line data. As shown in the figure, with the origin at the upper left corner of the screen, the number of lines of a character is a vertical coordinate value, and the number of columns of a character is a horizontal coordinate value, which are represented as character coordinates. The ruled line can be drawn at two positions, that is, just above the character and between the characters, so that one character is defined as the origin at the upper left of the screen.
The coordinate values are divided and are represented as ruled line coordinates.

FIG. 4 is a flow chart showing the processing contents when editing text and ruled lines. When editing a text (character) and a ruled line, it is first checked whether or not the editing is a text editing (step 21). The text editing in this case includes ruled line simultaneous editing. If it is not text editing, it is checked whether or not it is ruled line editing (step 22). If it is ruled line editing, ruled line editing processing is performed (step 23).

In step 21, if it is text editing, a text editing process is performed (step 24), and it is checked whether or not the ruled line simultaneous editing is performed (step 25). If the ruled line is not simultaneously edited, the process is terminated. If the ruled line is simultaneously edited, the ruled line editing process of step 23 is performed.
The process ends. In this case, data such as an area obtained in the text editing process is delivered.

FIG. 5 is a flowchart showing the detailed processing contents of the ruled line editing processing in FIG. In the ruled line editing processing, first, it is checked whether or not there is only the ruled line outer frame (step 31). If it is not the ruled line outer frame, the ruled line frame inside editing process is performed (step 32). Is checked (step 33). If it is not only inside the ruled line frame, a ruled line outer frame editing process is performed (step 34).

If it is determined in step 31 that there is only a ruled line outer frame, a ruled line outer frame editing process in step 34 is performed. Also,
If it is determined in step 33 that the data is only in the ruled line frame, the processing is terminated.

FIG. 6 is a flow chart showing the detailed processing contents of the inside of the ruled line frame editing process and the outside of the ruled line frame editing process in FIG. The difference between the inside of the ruled line frame editing process and the outside of the ruled line frame editing process is the difference between whether the ruled line is inside the frame of the character area to be edited or outside the frame. It is.

In this ruled line processing, the ruled line coordinates are converted to character coordinates (step 41), and the ruled lines at the converted character coordinates are stored (step 42). Is calculated from the character coordinates (step 43), and the saved rule is pasted at that position (step 44).

7 to 10 are explanatory diagrams showing an example of the ruled line text simultaneous editing process. For example, when the ruled line text simultaneous editing process is performed on the table as shown in FIG. 7 and the character “(1), (2)” shown in the diagram is moved, only the movement within the ruled line frame is performed. When this operation is performed, an editing result as shown in FIG. 8 is obtained. When only the outer frame of the ruled line is moved, an editing result as shown in FIG. 9 is obtained. When both the inside of the ruled line frame and the outer frame of the ruled line are moved, FIG. The editing result is as shown in FIG.

In this application, if only the outer frame of the ruled line is erased, or only the text and the inside of the frame are moved / copied, the editing result shown in FIG. 12 is obtained. When only the inside of the frame is deleted or only the text and the outer line of the ruled line are moved, an editing result as shown in FIG. 13 is obtained. When only the text is moved or all the ruled lines are deleted, the editing result as shown in FIG. Results.

As described above, in the text editing including the ruled line, when the text is moved, copied, and erased, the ruled line is also moved, copied, and erased in the same manner. Is one function,
And it can be performed by one specification. As a result, the number of times that the user enters and exits a plurality of functions is reduced, and the degree of freedom in specifying an area is increased.

Embodiment 2 In this embodiment, a case will be described in which the present apparatus is a Japanese word processor that prepares a character dedicated to ruled lines and treats ruled line data as character ruled lines in the same manner as characters. In the second embodiment,
The basic configuration is the same as that of the first embodiment, and a description thereof will be omitted.

In this apparatus, the character ruled line to be converted and the character ruled line to be converted are stored in the ROM 3 in advance as a character ruled line conversion table.

From the keyboard 5, sentence data including a large number of character data and character ruled line data is input. The CPU 1 stores the input text data in the RAM 2 and displays it on the display device 7 via the display controller 6.

When an area is designated by the cursor for editing processing such as erasing, moving, copying, etc., for the character stored in the RAM 2, the CPU 1 edits the character in the designated area. Thereafter, the presence / absence of a character ruled line is recognized for the upper, lower, left, and right sides of the inside and outside of the specified region adjacent to the boundary of the specified region before and after the editing process, and the character ruled line exists. In this case, the type of the adjacent character ruled line and the type of the character ruled line to be converted are determined, and by referring to the character ruled line conversion table, the type of the adjacent character ruled line and the type of the character ruled line to be converted are determined. Then, a character rule to be converted is searched, and the character rule is converted.

The character ruled line is a character, and the shape of the ruled line is set corresponding to the code. Therefore, for example, when a ruled line intersects with a ruled line, the vectored ruled line can intersect by passing through the same coordinates. However, in the case of a character ruled line, the code is converted to a different character ruled line. Must be displayed at the intersection. In addition, it is necessary to determine what form of character ruled line is to be displayed depending on the condition.

In this apparatus, in order to solve this, a ROM
3, a character ruled line conversion table as described above is provided. Thus, it is possible to recognize which form of character ruled line should be converted depending on the condition.

FIGS. 15 to 26 are explanatory diagrams showing character ruled line conversion tables. FIGS. 15 to 18 show tables for normal conversion, FIGS. 19 to 22 show tables for thick line priority conversion, and FIGS. 23 to 26 show tables for thin line priority conversion.

In these conversion tables, the leftmost column indicates the character ruled line to be converted, and the uppermost row indicates the character ruled line adjacent in the upward, downward, left, and right directions. Is shown. That is, FIG.
9. In FIG. 23, character ruled lines adjacent in the upward direction,
In FIG. 16, FIG. 20, and FIG. 24, character rule lines adjacent to each other in the downward direction, in FIGS. 17, 21, and 25, character rule lines adjacent to the left direction, and in FIG. 18, FIG. 22, and FIG. Matching character ruled lines are shown. The intersection of the left "ruled character line to be converted" and the upper "adjacent character ruled line" indicates the "character line to be converted".

Since the character ruled lines have a predetermined shape as described above, a sense of incongruity occurs when character ruled lines having different thicknesses are connected. In such a case, the conversion table corresponding to the priority of the thick line or the priority of the thin line is referred to depending on the priority. That is, FIGS. 15 to 18 are normally referred to, FIGS. 19 to 22 are shown when priority is given to thick lines, and FIGS. 23 to 26 are referred to when priority is given to thin lines.

FIGS. 27 to 36 are flow charts showing the contents of processing at the move / copy destination when moving / copying a text (character) by designating an area. In these figures, FIG. 27 shows the processing when converting the ruled line in the designated area, and FIGS. 28 to 31 show the detailed processing contents of FIG. FIG. 32 shows a process for converting adjacent portions outside the designated area, and FIGS.
3 shows the details of the processing.

When the ruled line in the designated area is converted in the processing at the moving / copying destination, first, as shown in FIG. 27, the conversion mode is checked (step 5).
1). This check is performed in order to determine which of the normal conversion table, the thick line priority conversion table, and the thin line priority conversion table to refer to, in the normal conversion mode, the thick line priority conversion mode, the thin line priority conversion mode. It is a check to know what it is.

Next, it is checked whether or not it is adjacent to the boundary in the designated area, that is, whether it is the first line in the designated area (step 52). A character rule conversion process is performed (step 53), and it is checked whether or not it is adjacent to a boundary portion in the designated area below (step 54). If it is adjacent below, a lower character rule conversion process is performed (step 53). 55).

Then, it is checked whether or not it is adjacent to the boundary in the designated area on the left (step 56). If it is adjacent on the left, a left character ruled line conversion process is performed (step 5).
7) It is checked whether or not it is adjacent to the boundary in the designated area on the right (step 58). If it is adjacent on the right, a right character rule conversion process is performed (step 59), and the character rule is checked. When the process is completed, the process proceeds to the next character check, and when all processes are completed, the process is completed (step 60).

FIG. 28 is a flowchart showing the detailed contents of the "upper character ruled line conversion process" shown in step 53 of FIG. In the upper character rule conversion process, it is checked whether or not there is a character rule on the opposite side (upper) of the rule line boundary (step 61). If there is a character rule, the type of the character rule adjacent to the upper is determined. (Step 62), and the type of character ruled line is
For example, if the checked conversion mode is the normal conversion mode, it is checked whether or not the conversion mode exists in the “upper conversion table” in FIG. 15 (step 63).

Here, if it exists, the inside of the designated area
The type of the character ruled line adjacent to the character ruled line above the boundary is checked (step 64), and the character ruled line to be converted is searched for using the "upper conversion table" of FIG. 15 (step 65). In this case, the character ruled lines in the designated area correspond to the character ruled lines in the leftmost column in FIG. 15, and the character ruled lines outside the designated area correspond to the character ruled lines in the uppermost row. Adopt the character line of the position. Then, it is converted into the adopted character ruled line (step 66).

In step 61, if there is no character ruled line on the opposite side (upper side) of the ruled line boundary, it is checked whether there is a space in place of the character ruled line (step 67). If not, the process ends.

Similarly, FIG. 29 is a flowchart showing the details of the "lower character ruled line conversion process" shown in step 55 of FIG. 27, and FIG. 30 is a flowchart showing the "left character ruled line conversion process" shown in step 57 of FIG. FIG. 31 is a flowchart showing the detailed contents of the "right character ruled line conversion process" shown in step 59 of FIG. 27. The flowchart shows the details in the upper, lower, left, and right boundaries. Perform a check. So, 4 characters per character
After the direction check is completed, the flow returns to step 60 in FIG. 27 to check the next character.

In the process at the move / copy destination, when converting adjacent portions outside the designated area, first, as shown in FIG. 32, the conversion mode is checked (step 71). Next, it is checked whether or not it is adjacent to the boundary part in the designated area below (step 72). If it is adjacent to the lower part, a lower character ruled line conversion process is performed (step 7).
3) It is checked whether or not it is adjacent to the boundary portion in the designated area above (step 74). If it is above, the upper character ruled line conversion process is performed (step 75).

Then, it is checked whether or not it is adjacent to the boundary in the designated area on the right (step 76). If it is adjacent on the right, a right character ruled line conversion process is performed (step 7).
7) It is checked whether it is adjacent to the boundary in the designated area on the left (step 78). If it is adjacent on the left, a left character rule conversion process is performed (step 79), and the character rule is checked. When the processing is completed, the process proceeds to the next character check, and when all the processing is completed, the processing is completed (step 80).

FIG. 33 is a flowchart showing the details of the "lower character ruled line conversion process" shown in step 73 of FIG. This lower character ruled line conversion process is basically the same as the lower character ruled line conversion process shown in FIG. 29 except that the process inside the region and the process outside the region are different. That is, what is different from FIG.
In this process, the type of the character ruled line outside the boundary is checked. In this process, the type of the character ruled line outside the designated area is checked.

FIG. 34 is a flowchart showing the details of the "upper character ruled line conversion process" shown in step 75 of FIG. 32. FIG. 35 is a flowchart showing the details of the "right character ruled line conversion process" shown in step 77 of FIG. FIG. 36 is a flowchart showing the details of the “left character ruled line conversion processing” shown in step 79 of FIG. 34 is shown in FIG. 28, FIG. 35 is shown in FIG. 31, and FIG.
30 respectively correspond to FIG. 30 and are basically the same processing except that the processing inside the area and the processing outside the area are different.

In contrast to the ruled line conversion processing in the designated area shown in FIG. 27, FIG. 32 shows processing at the movement source, at the time of erasing, and at the movement and copy destination. In other words, the process of FIG. 27 is a process of converting a character ruled line in a designated area.
The process 2 is a process of converting a character ruled line outside the designated area, that is, a character ruled line adjacent to the boundary of the designated area outside the boundary.

FIGS. 37 to 40 are explanatory diagrams showing an example of character ruled line conversion. In these figures, FIG. 37 shows an example of conversion in the normal conversion mode, and FIG. 38 shows an example of no conversion in the normal conversion mode. 38 below 2
The example shows a case in which conversion is not performed because the thickness is different.
FIG. 39 shows an example of conversion in the thick line priority conversion mode, and is an example in which conversion is performed according to a thick line when the thickness is different. In this case, an example is shown in which when a thin line and a thick line are connected, the thin line is converted to a thick line. FIG. 40 shows an example of conversion in the thin line priority conversion mode, which is opposite to FIG. 39, and shows an example in which when a thin line and a thick line are connected, the thick line is converted to a thin line. Note that it is also possible to create a table with other conditions by rewriting the conversion table.

FIGS. 41 to 44 are explanatory diagrams showing an example in the case where character ruled line conversion is performed on a table. Fig. 45
FIG. 48 is an explanatory view showing the character ruled lines disassembled one by one. FIG. 41 is shown in FIG. 45, and FIG.
FIG. 43 corresponds to FIG. 47, and FIG. 44 corresponds to FIG.

As shown in these figures, for example, FIG.
If the hatched portion is moved or deleted, and if the character ruled line is not converted, as shown in FIG. 42, a part of the ruled line remains, but the character ruled line which appears to be partially left is converted. Thus, a table as shown in FIG. 43 can be obtained.

When the hatched portions in FIG. 41 are moved or copied into the table shown in FIG. 43, if the character ruled lines are not converted, as shown in FIG. However, by converting the character ruled lines that appear to be partially missing, a table as shown in FIG. 41 can be obtained.

As described above, when editing processing such as moving / copying / erasing is performed on the character ruled lines constituting the table, the character ruled lines at the moving source and the erasing source, or at the moving destination and the copy destination are unnatural. However, by converting the character ruled lines, a table having a natural shape can be obtained. Thereby, simplification of the operation when the character ruled line is used, shortening of the work time, and the like can be achieved.

Specifically, when editing a table or the like using a character ruled line, it is possible to assist the user in performing a troublesome retouching operation. For example, if the above-described hatched portion in FIG. 41 is moved or erased, if the character ruled line is not converted, as shown in FIG. 42, a part of the ruled line will remain. The character ruled lines for the characters are re-input, but by specifying and executing the area, the correction up to the character ruled lines can be automatically performed. Also, by changing the conversion table, various patterns can be used.

[0072]

According to the present invention, when a character ruled line is moved, copied, or erased together with a character, for example, in the case of a moving process, the character ruled line adjacent to the source and destination areas is converted to a ruled line. Based on the table, it is converted to a well-defined character ruled line, so operation can be simplified,
In addition, it is possible to shorten the character ruled line modification work.
