The graphic data generation unit 6 determines the arrangement positions of the items 11 to 19 calculated by the item position calculation unit 3,
Generates and outputs graphic data from the size and the number of character points. The output graphic data is converted into image data by the display unit 7 and displayed on a display device such as a display. The display unit 7 includes a CRT display or an LCD display, and outputs a display screen such as a document or a chart on the screen.

The main control unit 8 is composed of a memory for storing program data and an arithmetic processing unit that operates based on the program data. The main control unit 8 controls input and output of the document processing device, and performs various operations in response to instructions from the input unit 1. Perform data processing. The document data storage unit 9 stores the document data 20 input from the input unit 1 and various setting data when creating a chart. Various setting data at the time of chart creation are stored in the document data storage unit 9 as chart data 30.

FIG. 4 is an explanatory diagram for explaining the structure of the chart data 30. The chart data 30 includes text items 11 to
Type designation area 3 for designating whether or not to place 19
0a, a shape designation area 30b for designating the shape data of a designated figure when arranging the items 11 to 19, and the items 11 to 1
Item frame designation area 3 for designating a figure type to be frame F of 9
0c, center arrangement designation area 30 for designating presence / absence of center arrangement

An attribute data storage area 30g for specifying an attribute, a hierarchy number storage area 30h for storing the number of layers, an item number storage area 30i for storing the number of items 11 to 19, and an item list storage for storing data of each of the items 11 to 19 It is composed of a region 30j.

The item list storage area 30j stores the graphic data GD1 to GD9 of the individual text items 11 to 19 in a list form, and sets its own data, an address indicating the next data, and a hierarchy of the next data. Is done.

The chart data dictionary section 10 stores a plurality of charts and data relating to the charts. The data stored in the chart data dictionary section 10 allows the shape data stored in the shape designation area 30b in the chart data 30 to be stored. It is to be set.

Next, the text item 11 of "high technology" is placed at the center position C of the elliptical locus L1 shown in FIG.
Example of creating a chart G1 in which the text items 12 to 19 of "aerospace industry", "military industry", "machinery industry", "new material industry", and "energy industry" are respectively surrounded by a circular frame F This will be explained.

First, as shown in FIG. 2, the keyboard of the input unit 1 is operated to input each of the text items 11 to 19 to create document data 20. That is, in FIG.
The text item 11 (“high technology”) to be arranged at the center position C is input on the first line, and the “electrical industry”, “information industry”, “bio industry”, “aerospace” to be arranged on the elliptical locus L1 from the second line onward Text items of industry, military industry, machinery industry, new material industry, and energy industry
19 are sequentially input.

Next, when the automatic chart generation key is selected, the type of chart is displayed on the screen of the display unit 7 as a menu.
The user wants to create the ellipse chart G in FIG. 3 from the menu.
Select 1. Next, a screen for requesting input of setting data is displayed on the screen. On this screen, the user inputs and sets setting data such as the shape, the presence or absence of the center arrangement, the item interval, the size of the creation area, and the rotation arrangement angle of the ellipse. The size of the creation area is determined by setting the upper left position and the lower right position of the rectangular area as the starting point HP.
And the coordinates of the end point EP.

In this embodiment, since the ellipse chart G1 shown in FIG. 3 is created, the user selects "ellipse" as the shape and selects and inputs the frame F of the text items 11 to 19 as a circle. Therefore, in the chart data 30, as shown in FIG. 4, elliptical data is stored in the shape designation area 30b, and circle data is stored in the item frame designation area 30c. In the type designation area 30a in the chart data 30, "shape arrangement" is set when "elliptical chart G1" is selected and input on the menu screen.

Since it is desired to arrange the text item 11 of "high technology" at the center, "Yes" is set for the center position, and the distance between the frames F of the text items 11 to 19 is 5 mm.
Enter "5mm" for the item interval.
Also, the coordinates (x1, y) of the start point HP of the creation area size
1) Input and set the coordinates (x2, y2) of the end point EP.
Then, these input settings are performed via the input unit 1,
The setting data is stored in each of the storage areas 30d to 30f of the chart data 30 in the document data storage unit 9 as described above.

When all the input of the setting data is completed, the execution key is pressed. By this execution, the main control unit 8 of the document processing apparatus
Activates the hierarchy extraction unit 2 and reads out the document data 20 of the text items 11 to 19 from the document data storage unit 9. Hierarchical information is extracted from the document data by the hierarchical extraction unit 2. The hierarchy of each of the text items 11 to 19 is determined by the indentation of each of the text items 11 to 19 of the document data 20. In this embodiment, since the start columns of the text items 11 to 19 are all the same, it is determined that the number of layers is “1”. The number of layers "1" is stored in the storage areas 30h and 30i of the chart data 30 stored in the document data storage unit 9 together with the number of items "9". The number of items is the number of text items 11 to 19 belonging to the hierarchy. In this embodiment, the number of items matches the number of all text items because the hierarchy is “1”.

The item list storage area 30j of the chart data 30 has the same number of graphic data GD1 to GD1 to
GD9 is generated. Graphic data GD1 to GD9 include “High technology”, “Electrical industry”, “Information industry”, “Bio industry”
Data of text items 11 to 19 of “aerospace industry”, “military industry”, “machinery industry”, “new material industry”, and “energy industry” are respectively assigned.

When the process of extracting the hierarchy information from the document data 20 is completed, the main control unit 8 of the document processing device executes the graphic data creation process shown in the flowchart of FIG. First, the main controller 8 activates the item position calculator 3.

In step S1, the chart data 30 is read from the document data storage section 9, and the ellipse data in the chart data 30, the start point HP (x1, y1), and the end point EP (x2, y) are read.
2), the center coordinates (center position) C (x _C ,
y _C ), the equation of the ellipse (the equation for calculating the coordinates of the point on the ellipse corresponding to the designated creation area size), and the circumference L of the ellipse are calculated.

In step S2, the center position C of the ellipse is determined based on the data of the center position designation area 30d of the chart data 30.
It is determined whether or not a text item is to be arranged. If “Yes” is set in the center location data, step S
The process proceeds to step S3, and if "NO" is set, the process proceeds to step S4. In this embodiment, since “Yes” is set, the process proceeds to step S3.

In step S3, the item list storage area 3
The first (address number "1") graphic data GD1 of 0j
Written into the storage area to specify the center position of the frame F center coordinates _C (x C, y C) of the ellipse of the.

In step S4, the center position of the frame F of the text items 12 to 19 to be arranged on the elliptical locus L1 is calculated. First, a value s = L / n is calculated by dividing the perimeter L of the ellipse by the number n (n = 8 in the present embodiment) of the text items 12 to 19 arranged on the ellipse. Then, according to the number of the text items 12 to 19 on the elliptical locus L1, the starting point (x ₁ , y ₁ ) (in this example, the center of the frame of “Electric Industry” in FIG. 3) is set from FIG. , The coordinates (x ₂ , y ₂ ), (x ₃ , y ₃ ),..., Of each point moving along the circumference of the ellipse in the clockwise direction by s (= L / n).
(X ₈ , y ₈ ) is calculated using the elliptic equation of the elliptic data. Coordinates (x ₁ , y ₁ ), (x ₂ , y ₂ ), ..., (x
₈ , y ₈ ) is the graphic data of address numbers “2” to “9”
Write to the storage area that specifies the frame center position in GD2 to GD9. The setting of the starting point (x ₁ , y ₁ ) and the setting of the clockwise direction are performed in advance in the attribute data storage area 30.
g.

In step S5, each of the text items 11 to
The 19 frame sizes r1 and r2 are calculated. 6 and 7 show an example of a method of calculating the frame size when the item frame F is “circle” and “square”, respectively.

As shown in FIG. 6, when the item frame F is a "circle", an interval g to be secured between two adjacent item frames FA and FB, and a distance D between the centers of the two item frames FA and FB [ A,
B] and the maximum radius r [A,
B] is calculated by the following equation.

R [A, B] = (D [A, B] −g) / 2 (1) The interval g is an item interval designation area 3 in the chart data 30.
It is given from the item interval data stored in 0e. The maximum radius r [A, B] is obtained for all the two item frames F,
The smallest value among them is the radius r2 of the item frame F.

As shown in FIG. 7, when the item frame is a "square", an interval g between two adjacent item frames FA and FB and an X direction between the centers of the two item frames FA and FB are determined. The distance W [A, B] and the distance H [A,
B] is larger than D [A, B] (in the example of FIG.
[A, B] = W [A, B]), the maximum side length r [A, B] of the square serving as the item frame is calculated by the following equation.

R [A, B] = D [A, B] −g (2) The maximum one-side length r [A, B] is obtained between all the two item frames, and the smallest value is determined. One side length r2 of the item frame F is set.

The radius (or one side length) r2 calculated in this way
Is written to a storage area for specifying the frame size of each of the graphic data GD2 to GD9. Further, the frame size r1 of the item frame arranged at the center position C is, for example, the item frame F arranged at the center.
(1) or (2) between each item frame F on the elliptical locus L1
The formula is calculated, and the minimum value r1 of the calculation results is set as the frame size of the item frame F to be centrally arranged. in this case,
The interval g may be set to a value different from the value used when calculating the frame size of the text item on the elliptical locus L1. This minimum value r1 is written to a storage area for specifying the frame size of the graphic data GD1.

In step S6, the character string size calculation unit 5
Is activated, and the number of lines and the number of character points of the character string are calculated so that each of the text items 11 to 19 falls within the item frame F of the frame size r1 (or r2) calculated in step S5. The number of lines is calculated from the number of characters of the text items 11 to 19, and for example, the number of characters to be included in one line is set in advance.
In this example, the number of characters to be accommodated in one line is set to 5 characters. The character point is calculated based on the frame size r1 (or r2) so as to match the size of each item frame. The pitch between characters is set in advance according to, for example, character points.

When the number of lines and character points are calculated in this way, it is determined whether or not the text items 11 to 19 fall within the item frame F. If the item frame F is a rectangular shape such as “square”, the width of the item frame F in the x direction (horizontal direction) and the text item 1
The length of each line is compared with the length of one to 19, and the length per line is equal to or less than the length obtained by subtracting a predetermined value (the space between the frame and the text item) from the width of the item frame F (x direction). If so, determine the character point. If the length per line is larger than the length obtained by subtracting the predetermined value from the width of the item box (x direction), the character point is reduced to one smaller character point, and the same determination processing is repeated until a character point satisfying the condition is determined. . This determination process is performed by the determination unit 4. When the item frame F is “circle”, it has a height (y direction) determined by the number of lines and the character point at that time, and the item frame F
Perform the same process on the rectangular area inscribed in the circle of
Determine the character point.

This processing is performed on each of the text items 11 to 19, and the smallest one of the character points determined for each of the text items 11 to 19 is selected by the determination unit 4. Then, the number of lines, character points, and pitch between characters determined in this step processing are represented by the respective graphic data GD1 to GD9.
Are written into the designated storage areas, respectively, and the graphic data creation processing ends.

Next, the main controller 8 activates the graphic data generator 6, reads out the chart data 30 created by the graphic data creation process, converts it into image data, and outputs it to the screen of the display unit 7. First, each frame data is obtained from the graphic data GD1 to GD9 in the chart data 30, and only the item frame F is entirely output on the screen of the display unit 7. Next, text items 11 to 19 are sequentially placed in each item frame F on the screen of the display unit 7.

In this example, the order in which the text items 11 to 19 are inserted is set for each item frame F. That is, first
The text item 11 is placed in the item frame F placed at the center in the second position, and “Electric industry” is placed in the item frame F located directly above or rightward from the position directly above in FIG. Are set in such a manner that text items 13 to 19 are sequentially inserted into each item frame F on the elliptical locus L1 in the clockwise direction in FIG.

First, the text "high technology" of the address number "1" is added to the first item box F, that is, the item box F of the center arrangement, with the specified number of lines "2" and the character that matches the item box size. Enter at point P1 and character pitch Q1. Next, a text item to be put in the second item box F is determined based on the next item address number in the graphic data GD1 of the address number "1". The next item address number is "2"
Therefore, the text item 12 of “Electric Industry” with the address number “2” is put in the second item box F. Hereinafter, in the same procedure, the text item at the designated address is entered into each item frame F on the elliptical locus L1 by the designated number of lines at the character point P2 and the character pitch Q2 that match the item frame F. As a result, the ellipse chart G1 shown in FIG. 3 is output on the screen of the display unit 7 with the specified creation area size. By the way, FIG.
In the figure, the elliptical locus L1 is drawn by a broken line, but the elliptical locus L1 may or may not be displayed on an actual screen.

When the layout is updated by adding or deleting a text item after the layout processing has been performed, the processing is executed in the same procedure as described above. That is, the user makes a change, such as addition or deletion, to the document data 20 shown in FIG. 2 and simply presses the automatic chart generation key again, whereby the changed elliptical chart G1 is created on the screen.

The above embodiment can be modified as follows without departing from the spirit of the invention. (1) As shown in FIG. 8, an elliptical locus L1 which is a designated figure
The size of each of the text items 11 to 19 arranged above may be laid out in different sizes. In FIG. 8, the size of each of the text items 12 to 19 on the elliptical locus L1 is set to be larger from the upper side to the lower side so that the ellipse chart G1 has a perspective. In this case, reduction / enlargement magnification data corresponding to the position of the frame size is set in the attribute data storage area 30g of the chart data 30 as information on “perspective”, and the frame of the item frame F is set based on the magnification data. What is necessary is just to enlarge / reduce the sizes r1 and r2. At this time, the item frame F is enlarged ignoring the interval g. For example,
The x-axis is coordinate-transformed in the depth direction of the perspective with the center position C of the elliptical locus L1 as the origin, and the frame size is reduced (or enlarged) as the x-coordinate value of the center of each item frame F at that time becomes larger. Then, the frame size may be increased (or reduced) as the x-coordinate value is larger negatively. (2) As shown in FIG. 9, a chart G1 in which a text item and a frame F are arranged by tracing an open curve L2 instead of a closed curve such as an ellipse or a circle may be created. In this case, the opened curve L2 may be equally divided into (the number of text items-1), and each division point and both end points of the curve L2 may be calculated as the center coordinates of the item frame F. Further, the shape of the open curve L2 is not limited to the shape of FIG. For example, even if the opened curve L2 is a curve extending by waving from the depth side to the near side with a sense of perspective, the text item size (item frame size, character size) is set on the curve locus according to the sense of perspective. Good. (3) Although the center points of the item frames on the ellipse locus are set uniformly on the ellipse, they may be set not at equal intervals but at predetermined intervals.
