- the example of the guidance point described in FIG. 4 is a case where the guidance route turns right at a right angle at the intersection, but the present invention is not limited to a right angle, and the above procedure is performed for all angles. Can be printed.
- the angle index line of this angle index is first drawn through the guidance point la, and the intersection with the roll paper is set as P. In this case, point P is on the right edge of the paper. Next, an angle index line is printed from the intersection P.
- the guide route R is printed as a discontinuous straight line by printing the route after the left turn from the contrast point lb with la on the angle index line. After printing this, if the paper is valley-folded along the dotted line from P in Fig. 8 (b) (index line indicating valley fold), the guide route turns 30 degrees to the left as shown in Fig. 8 (c). Can be observed.
- the printing means 38 has a double-sided printing function
- the guide route to the guidance point la is printed on the surface.
- the guidance route between the guidance point la force angle index line corresponding to the blank part leading to the guidance point lb is printed on the back side of the roll paper as shown in Fig. 9 (b). The length of this blank portion can be easily calculated based on the angle 0.
- a guide route portion from the guidance point lb on the angle index line to the next guidance point 1 + 1 is printed in parallel with the length direction of the roll paper.
- a guide route that turns right at right angles can be observed as shown in Fig. 9 (b).
- the information terminal device 30 receives the distribution of the guidance route data (guidance data) from the information distribution server 20 and prints the guide map on demand, there is a slight bending between the guidance points. Even if there is, there is no practical problem even if the guide route between the guidance points is printed linearly as a guide map deformed to fit on the roll paper.
- the print data is created and stored in the above-described procedure, and is printed. You can configure it.
- the present invention can be applied to various guides in addition to printing the route.
- a chopstick case for a restaurant or the like is usually printed only with the name of the store, etc.
- a guide map of a shopping street to which the restaurant belongs is printed or displayed to a nearby tourist spot according to the present invention.
- it is possible to impress that both the store and the area are very spectacular.
- a map of a specific route is sold for the same purpose as the map information distribution system of Patent Document 2 (Japanese Patent Laid-Open No. 2002-150108)
- a detailed map can be sold only with roll paper. . Passengers in the passenger seat are also very happy to guide while folding paper.
- FIG. 1 is a block diagram showing a configuration of an information distribution system including an information terminal device having a graphic printing function according to an embodiment of the present invention.
- FIG. 2 is a schematic diagram for explaining the configuration of road network data for route search.
- FIG. 3 is a schematic diagram for explaining a road network for route search using a transportation system.
- FIG. 4 is a diagram for explaining a method of printing a graphic that is useful in an embodiment of the present invention.
- FIG. 4 (a) is a diagram for explaining a guidance point bending angle of a guide route
- FIG. 5 is a diagram for explaining the concept of printing a guide path in a discontinuous and straight line on a narrow paper according to a bending angle.
- FIG. 5 is a diagram showing a printed matter obtained by printing the figure of FIG. 10 by the printing method shown in FIG.
- FIG. 6 is a diagram illustrating a usage state of the printed matter illustrated in FIG. 5, and is a diagram illustrating a state in which a printed figure is folded so that the bending of the guidance point can be visually recognized.
- FIG. 7 is a flowchart showing a printing operation procedure of the information terminal device according to the embodiment of the present invention.
- FIG. 8 is a diagram for explaining a case where a figure with a different bending angle at a guidance point on a guidance route is printed.
- FIG. 8 (a) is a diagram for explaining a guidance point bending angle on a guidance route.
- (b) is a diagram for explaining the concept of printing the guide path in a discontinuous and straight line on a narrow paper according to the bending angle.
- FIG. 9 is a diagram for explaining a case where a figure by the printing method according to the embodiment of the present invention is printed using a double-sided printing function
- FIG. 9 (a) is a diagram for explaining a folding line
- Fig. 9 (b) is a diagram showing a state in which a graphic printed on the front and back sides of a sheet is folded.
- FIG. 10 is a schematic diagram showing an example of a printed matter in which a figure is printed by a general printing means.
- FIG. 11 is a schematic diagram showing a case in which the figure of FIG. 10 is printed on a general information terminal device having printing means for printing on a relatively narrow roll paper.
