Send such information. On the other hand, in the document editing apparatus, in response to an instruction input from the operation input means such as a pointing device by the data editing means, the document electronic data based on the information related to the document input from the electronic paper is displayed on the screen. Is inserted at a position corresponding to the designated position of the document electronic data.

Therefore, the document editing apparatus is self-administered based on the document electronic data input from the electronic paper or based on the document electronic data acquired from the memory or the like by the data for specifying the document input from the electronic paper. Processing such as inserting and pasting the document displayed on the electronic paper at the position indicated by the pointing in the document displayed on the screen is performed. In other words, the document displayed and held on the electronic paper is inserted into the document-editing apparatus at the position designated by the user in the document displayed on the screen.
In the present invention, the document editing device generates a thumbnail image of the document based on the information related to the document input from the electronic paper by the thumbnail creation unit, and the thumbnail image is displayed on the screen by the thumbnail display unit. It may be displayed at the designated position in the image so that the user can easily confirm the document to be inserted together with the insertion position.

  Further, in the electronic paper according to the present invention, information related to the document displayed and held on the display unit is stored by the document information storage unit, and the operation input unit of the document editing apparatus is in a predetermined cooperation state by the state detection unit. Is detected, and information related to the document that is displayed and held when the output unit enters a predetermined cooperative state is transmitted. On the other hand, in the document editing apparatus, a document image based on information related to the document input from the electronic paper is displayed on the screen in response to an instruction input from the operation input unit by the document display unit.

Therefore, the document editing apparatus is based on the document electronic data input from the electronic paper or based on the document electronic data acquired from the memory or the like by the data for specifying the document input from the electronic paper. Processing such as displaying the document displayed on the electronic paper on the display screen is performed. In other words, the document editing apparatus displays the document displayed and held on the electronic paper on the screen and is used as an object for editing processing or the like.
In the present invention, the document editing apparatus activates an application program corresponding to the document electronic data to be displayed on the screen by the document display means, thereby not only displaying the document on the screen but also performing advanced editing such as editing by the application program. Processing may be added.

  According to the present invention, the electronic paper is displayed on the screen of the document editing apparatus based on the fact that the electronic paper is in a predetermined linkage state with the operation input unit of the document editing apparatus. By performing the operation for setting the above to the linked state, the display document of the electronic paper can be processed by the document editing apparatus.

The present invention will be specifically described based on examples.
First, the electronic paper EP used in the present invention will be specifically described with reference to examples shown in FIGS.
The electronic paper EP is roughly classified according to the display information recording method, and includes an optical writing type shown in FIGS. 9 to 12 and a self-writing type shown in FIGS. 12 to 15. As is called electronic paper, it is a thin and flexible device like paper.

FIG. 9A shows the optical writing electronic paper EP as viewed from the front, and FIG. 9B shows the optical writing electronic paper EP as viewed from the side. The electronic paper EP shown in the figure has a display unit 2 for displaying and holding a document image and a processing unit 3 for managing electronic data. In FIG. The functional part is also shown.
The optically writable electronic paper EP is a flexible thin film having a size like that of, for example, A4 size paper, and displays and holds a document image in a non-powered state on the display unit 2 that occupies most of the area. The size of the display unit 2 is arbitrary, and the display unit 2 and the processing unit 3 are detachable. For example, the clip-type processing unit 3 is attached to the display unit 2 and connected to the electronic paper EP. You may make it comprise.

As will be described later, the processing unit 3 includes an electrode 4 for applying a voltage for driving the display unit 2, a communication unit (wireless unit in the illustrated example) 5 for data communication with the outside, and electronic data can be freely read and written. A memory 6 to be held, a sensor 7 for detecting that a predetermined linkage state has been established with an operation input unit of a document editing apparatus to be described later, and a control unit for performing transmission processing of data held in the memory 6 in response to detection by the sensor 7 (CPU) 8 and a battery 9 for supplying driving power for these functional means are provided.
The optical writable electronic paper EP is electronic data of a document, ID code data (that is, information related to a display document) for identifying the document by wireless communication with an external wireless device (not shown) by the wireless unit 5 and the like. The electronic data can be transmitted / received and the electronic data can be held in the memory 6.

For example, the optical writable electronic paper EP displays a document as an image on the liquid crystal panel 10 as shown in FIG. 10, and the optical writable electronic paper EP is applied to the liquid crystal panel 10 while applying a voltage to the electrode 4 from an external power source. The document image displayed on the liquid crystal panel 10 can be transferred to and stored in the display unit 2 by irradiating with light.
It is also possible to transfer and store the document image on the display unit 2 by applying a voltage to the electrode 4 and irradiating the optically writable electronic paper EP with a paper on which a document such as a document is printed. In short, the optical writable electronic paper EP transfers the projected image information to the display unit 2 by applying a voltage to the electrode 4 and displays the image information even after the voltage applied to the electrode 4 is removed. It has a function to keep it in a state.

  The optical writable electronic paper EP includes an organic photoconductive material layer (organic photoconductive layer) 20 and a liquid crystal display material layer used in a copying machine, as shown in FIG. (Microencapsulated cholesteric liquid crystal layer) 21 is combined, these layers are sandwiched between a pair of front and back transparent electrodes 22, and this laminate is sandwiched between a pair of front and back transparent substrate films 23. In this configuration, the white display in which the cholesteric liquid crystal layer 21 reflects light and the light is transmitted through the liquid crystal layer 21 and absorbed by the black layer 24 provided between the cholesteric liquid crystal layer 21 and the organic photoconductive layer 20. Black display monochrome image display is possible. Furthermore, since the cholesteric liquid crystal has a characteristic of interference-reflecting color light according to the helical pitch, color display can be realized with a simple structure by forming the cholesteric liquid crystal layer 21 by laminating liquid crystals having different helical pitches. It is also possible.

Then, as shown in FIG. 11 showing the operation principle of the display unit 2, the optical writing type electronic paper EP displays a document image to be transferred to, for example, a dimming element panel (light emitting panel) 10 for image writing, and displays the display unit. When the voltage is applied to the electrode 4 and a voltage is applied to the electrode 4, the intensity of light is instantaneously converted to a reflection density and the projection image is held. The image information held in the display unit 2 can be erased by applying an erasing voltage to the electrode 4, and the optical writable electronic paper EP can be reused many times by repeating writing and erasing. The optical writable electronic paper EP does not perform such an erasing process, but applies a voltage to the electrode 4 to project a new image as described above, whereby a document image held in the display unit 2 is projected. Can be overwritten and can be reused again and again by such overwriting.
Therefore, the optical writing type electronic paper EP has the property of holding the document image transferred by projecting the image without power in addition to the property of being thin and flexible like paper, so that it is used for a printer or a copying machine. It is a recording medium that can be used like paper and can be reused repeatedly.

  Further, since the optical writing type electronic paper EP of this example has a communication function, a memory function, and a cooperation state detection function, as will be described later with reference to FIGS. 1 and 3, it cooperates with the document editing apparatus. The document displayed and held on the display unit 2 can be processed by the document editing apparatus.

FIG. 13A shows the self-writing electronic paper EP viewed from the front, and FIG. 13B shows the self-writing electronic paper EP viewed from the side. The illustrated electronic paper EP includes a display unit 12 that displays and holds an information image and a processing unit 13 that controls processing of electronic data.

As with the optical writable electronic paper 1, the size of the display unit 12 is sized according to the application, and the display unit 12 and the processing unit 13 are detachable, for example, in a clip format process. The electronic paper EP may be configured by attaching and connecting the unit 13 to the display unit 12.

The processing unit 13 includes a driver 14 that drives the display unit 12 as will be described later, a communication unit (wireless unit in the illustrated example) 15 for data communication with the outside, a memory 16 that holds electronic data in a readable and writable manner, A sensor 17 that detects that a predetermined linkage state has been established with an operation input unit of a document editing apparatus, which will be described later, and a control unit (CPU) 18 that performs transmission processing of data held in the memory 16 in response to detection by the sensor 17; An operation unit 11 such as a battery 19 for supplying driving power for these functional means and a button for receiving an operation input for image writing by the driver 14 is provided.
The self-writing type electronic paper EP can transmit and receive information related to the display document by wirelessly communicating with an external wireless device (not shown) by the wireless unit 15, and can store the information in the memory 16.

Further, the self-writing type electronic paper EP is different from the optical writing type electronic paper, and the driver 14 writes and displays the document image on the display unit 12 based on the document electronic data held in the memory 16. The document image to be displayed can be switched and changed in response to an operation input from 11, and the display unit 12 has a function to keep the document image in the display state even when the driving power of the driver 14 is removed.
The self-writing type electronic paper EP is a fine colored particle (white particles 31 and black particles 32 in the illustrated example) used as toner in a copying machine, as shown in FIG. Is sealed between a pair of front and back electrodes 33 whose surface side is transparent, and is sandwiched between a pair of front and back film substrates 34 whose surface side is transparent. An air layer is formed between the electrode layers 33 so that the colored particles 31 and 32 can freely move, and the matrix-like electrode layer 33 is provided with an insulating layer 35 that prevents contact with the colored particles 31 and 32. It has been. Note that a color display can be realized with a simple structure by using a color filter.

In the self-writing type electronic paper EP, the voltage is not applied to the electrode 33 as shown in FIG. 14 showing the operation principle of the display unit 12 (however, the electrode 33 is charged to the polarity at the previous driving). ), The negatively charged white particles 31 accumulate on the back side, while the positively charged black particles 32 accumulate on the front side. When the display unit 12 is viewed from the front side, the display unit 12 is observed. Becomes a black state. And if the electrode polarity of the required part of the matrix according to the image information which the driver 14 operates and displays based on the electronic data is inverted, the positional relationship between the white particles 31 and the black particles 32 is switched, and the display unit 12 is switched. The image information based on the contrast between the white particles 31 and the black particles 32 is displayed. By operating the driver 14 based on different electronic data, the image information displayed on the display unit 12 can be switched depending on the contrast between the white particles 31 and the black particles 32, and can be reused many times. .
Accordingly, the self-writing type electronic paper EP has the property of holding the image information displayed on the display unit 12 without power in addition to the property of being thin and flexible like paper, so that it can be used as if it were paper. It is a medium.

  Further, since the self-writing electronic paper EP of this example has a communication function, a memory function, and a cooperation state detection function, as will be described later with reference to FIGS. 1 and 3, it cooperates with the document editing apparatus. The document displayed and held on the display unit 12 can be the target of processing by the document editing apparatus.

In the case of a wireless IC tag, the battery 9 (19) may be a capacitor that holds an electromotive force from the tag reader.
In addition, the present invention can be applied to electronic papers other than formats such as self-writing type electronic paper and optical writing type electronic paper. For example, the electronic paper can be loaded into an external rewriting device and the display unit can be self-writing type. A format in which content images are electronically written may be used. That is, the self-writing electronic paper is an example of an electronic paper that does not require an external image writing device, and the optical writing electronic paper is an example of an electronic paper that requires an external image writing device. .
In addition, as the display section 2 (12) of the electronic paper, a liquid crystal having a memory property typified by a ferroelectric liquid crystal, an electrophoretic method in which charged particles are moved to switch a display, and charged particles are rotated. Alternatively, a particle rotation method for switching the display, a magnetophoresis method for switching the display by moving particles by magnetism, a thin battery-driven thin liquid crystal or an EL element may be used.
