Description

Font Processing Method for Maintaining Electronic Document Layout

The present invention relates to a font processing technology for maintaining an electronic document layout, and more particularly, to an electronic document (eg, a word file, a presentation file, etc.) in a user terminal (eg, a smartphone, a smart pad, a digital set-top box, etc.). The present invention relates to a font processing technique that maintains the layout of the original even when the original font used in these electronic documents is not installed in the application program of the user terminal.

When opening an electronic document such as a word file (DOC file) or a presentation file (PPT file) by executing an application program (POLARIS OFFICE program) on various user terminals such as a smart phone, smart pad, digital set-top box, etc. It defaults to display on the screen using font of each character included.

However, if the original font used in the electronic document, that is, the original font is not installed in the user terminal and cannot be used, various implementation methods are possible. If the environment is similar to a personal computer, the font data of the original font can be downloaded and applied in real time through the high-speed Internet.

However, this method is difficult to apply in a terminal such as a smart phone or smart pad, because the user does not want a situation in which the Internet communication environment is generally slow and user responsiveness is degraded. Accordingly, these terminals search similar fonts or implement them on the screen using the default font as a substitute font. In this case, the original font and the substitute font have a different document layout because the size of each character (character) is different.

In order to reduce the number of times this phenomenon occurs, there is an attempt to embed as much font data in the user terminal as possible. However, this does not only incur a considerable cost for the font license, but also limits the size of binary data that can be mounted on the user terminal.

Hereinafter, with reference to the drawings will be described in detail the present invention.

1 is a diagram illustrating an entire system in which a font processing method for maintaining an electronic document layout according to the present invention is implemented. Referring to FIG. 1, the user terminal 10 performs data transmission and reception with the MBS management server 30 through the communication network 20, and the MBS management server 30 operates a database 31.

The user terminal 10 is a device that a general user uses to open an electronic document and check contents. In general, the smart phone, smart pad, digital set-top box, etc., the document viewer application is installed to open the electronic document to implement on the display screen.

The font management terminal 40 generates and provides data related to the font. The font management terminal 40 may be a computer managed by a company that has authored a particular font, may be a computer managed by a person who has authored an electronic document, or a company that manufactures an Android smartphone (eg, Samsung Electronics, It may be a computer managed by Apple, or a computer operated by a company (eg, Infraware) that supplies an electronic document viewer application reflecting the technology of the present invention.

The font management terminal 40 generates the MBS table 15a as font-related data, and uploads the MBS table 15a to the MBS management server 30 through the communication network 20 to share the generated MBS table 15a. To this end, the font management program executed in the font management terminal 40 preferably provides an upload menu for registering the MBS table 15a in the font list in addition to the function of generating font-related data.

The MBS management server 30 includes a database 31 to manage font-related data uploaded from the font management terminal 40 (ie, MBS table) in a font list, and manages font-related data for the user terminal 10. to provide. The MBS management server 30 may be managed by a company (eg, terminal sales company) maintaining a performance of the user terminal 10 or a provider of a document viewer application.

Meanwhile, in the present invention, the font management terminal 40 may be integrally implemented in the MBS management server 30. In this case, the MBS management server 30 generates font-related data (ie, MBS table) for a specific font. It also has a function to. Accordingly, in response to a request of the user terminal 10, the MBS management server 30 may generate and provide an MBS table 15a for a specific font in real time.

2 is a diagram illustrating a configuration of a font management terminal 40 in which a font processing method for maintaining an electronic document layout according to the present invention is implemented. Referring to FIG. 2, the font management terminal 40 is a component that generates and provides data related to various original fonts used in an electronic document. In detail, the input / output unit 41, the transmission / reception unit 42, and the font are provided. The management control unit 43, the MBS generation module 44, and the storage unit 45 are included. The MBS generation module 44 includes an MBS information generating means 44a and an MBS uploading means 44b. Hereinafter, the font management terminal 40 will be described in detail based on the configuration of the MBS generating module 44. do.

The MBS information generating means 44a generates the MBS table 45a for various fonts used in the original electronic document. The MBS table 45a includes reference size information for each character (character) for the font. ) Is included. In this case, the MBS table 45a is provided for each font, and the information included in the MBS table 45a is information corresponding to the display size when the character is displayed on the screen for each character in the corresponding font. In this case, the font size and the screen resolution are preferably set to a reference value (eg, font size is 10 and resolution is 320 × 240).

Meanwhile, in the present invention, a twip is assumed as a unit of the character size. Twips are mapped according to resolution (dpi), with 1 twipe divided by 1 inch by 1440, and a typical tweak per pixel of Windows 96 dpi is 1440/96, 15 twips. The MBS engine module 14 obtains the size of the twips through graphic processing for a specific character of a specific font (for example, the letter 'A' of an Arial font), and when it is displayed on the display screen, truncates or rounds it up. Implement pixel by pixel. For example, for the letter 'A', the size would be 10 pixels (150/15 = 10) if the size was 150 twips, 11 pixels (165/15 = 11) if the size was 165, or 10 pixels (154/15 = 10.27) if the 154 twips were used. Process.

Accordingly, in the present invention, the text size input to the MBS table 45a may be set in a twips unit for precise control. However, if the twips unit is used, the numbers used in the calculation may be too large, resulting in excessive computing load. Therefore, to solve this problem, a medium unit (for example, 1 MBS (Mapping Base Size) = 200 twips) is used. It is preferable.

In addition, although both the horizontal and vertical sizes of the characters may be handled, the layout of the electronic document largely depends on the horizontal size, so the MBS table 45a may be configured to handle only the horizontal size.

In addition, a physical value (eg, 87 twips, 2.5 MBS) may be described as reference size information of a character, but a relative ratio (eg, 1.2 times, 0.8 times) to a basic font (reference font) may be input. In this case, when the electronic terminal displays the electronic document on the screen, a large number of decimal point calculations are performed, and an information expression method is selected in consideration of the decimal point calculating capability of the user terminal 10.

The MBS uploading means 44b transmits the MBS table 45a generated by the MBS information generating means 44a to the MBS management server 30 through the communication network 20 and is registered in the font list on the database 31 through this. do. The MBS management server 30 maintains the MBS table 45a for various fonts as a font list.

That is, the font management terminal 40 generates an MBS table 45a for individual fonts and transmits the MBS table 45a to the MBS management server 30. The MBS management server 30 collects these MBS tables 45a to collect a font list. Maintain. For example, the font list includes the MBS table 45a for about 100 fonts. The font list maintained by the MBS management server 30 is provided to the user terminal 10. Accordingly, the user terminal 10 includes a font list for about 100 fonts together with font data for 2 to 3 basic fonts. Corresponding to all fonts provided with.

Storage unit 45 is a configuration for providing a storage space for the font management terminal 40 in the present invention temporarily stores the MBS table (45a). The MBS table 45a shows information on the size of each character in the display screen when it is implemented on the display screen. In this case, the font size and the screen resolution are set as reference values (eg, font size 10, resolution 320 × 240). It is preferable to be set.

On the other hand, the font management control unit 43 controls the generation and upload of the MBS table 45a made by the MBS generation module 44.

3 is a flowchart illustrating a process of generating a font list in the MBS management server 30 by generating the MBS table 45a in the present invention.

First, the MBS generation module 44 of the font management terminal 40 generates the font-specific MBS table 45a by obtaining the size of each font for the fonts used for creating the electronic document and arranging them into a table (S11). On the other hand, the MBS table 45a is preferably stored with the recommended replacement font information for the font.

After step S11, the MBS generation module 44 transmits the MBS table 45a to the MBS management server 30 through the communication network 20 (S12).

After step S12, the MBS management server 30 collects the MBS table 45a provided from various font management terminals 40 and maintains the font list on the database 31 (S13).

After the step S13, the MBS management server 30 waits for the provision of the font list in response to a request from the external user terminal 10 (S14). Through this, the font list is provided to the user terminal 10 from the MBS management server 30 according to the request and is utilized in the font processing process for maintaining the layout when the user terminal 10 opens the electronic document, which will be described later. do.

4 is a diagram illustrating a configuration of a user terminal 10 in which a font processing method for maintaining an electronic document layout according to the present invention is implemented. Referring to FIG. 4, the user terminal 10 includes an input / output unit 11, a transceiver unit 12, a terminal controller 13, an MBS engine module 14, a storage unit 15, and a document viewer application 16. Include. The MBS engine module 14 includes a font list sharing means 14a, a font information extracting means 14b, a font size calculating means 14c, a font size calculating means 14c, and a font implementing means 14d, and stores the same. In the section 15, MBS tables 15a for various fonts are provided. Hereinafter, the user terminal 10 will be described in detail based on the configuration of the MBS engine module 14.

First, the font list sharing means 14a receives the font list managed by the MBS management server 30 and updates the MBS table 15a including the reference size information for each font for each font. The font list sharing means 14a preferably receives the font list continuously from the MBS management server 30 and manages the MBS table 15a up to date. The MBS table 15a installed in the slot may be used continuously. Instead of storing the font data (binary) for each font of the user terminal 10, the MBS table 15a for these fonts is provided. Meanwhile, for the purpose of the present invention, the MBS table 15a also stores size information for each character of the substitute font (that is, the basic font).

Referring to the font information extracting means 14b, when the document viewer application 16 implements various fonts used in the electronic document as the user terminal 10 opens a specific electronic document, the font information extracting means 14b. Extracts the reference size information for each character of the original font from the MBS table 15a. In addition, the font information extracting means 14b extracts the character-specific reference size information from the MBS table 15a also for the basic font, that is, the substitute font, to replace the original font.

When the font size calculating means 14c expresses each character set as the original font in the electronic document as an alternative font, the font size calculation unit 14c acquires a font size to be performed for the character, and for this purpose, the font size and the original font for the corresponding character in the MBS table 15a are obtained. Refer to the standard size information set in the substitute font. In this specification, the font sizes of the original font and the substitute font are referred to as the original font size and the substitute font size, respectively.

For example, suppose that the original font is set to the reference size of 79 MBS and the replacement font is set to the reference size of 67 MBS for the letter 'A'. If font size 16 is set for the letter 'A' in the electronic document Happydays.docx (i.e. original font size = 16), the display size of that character is 126.4 MBS (or 25280 twips) by (79 × 1.6 = 126.4). to be. In other words, if the letter 'A', which is set to font size 16 in the electronic document, is implemented as the original font, it is represented by 126.4 MBS on the screen.

If the letter 'A' is implemented as a substitute font, the reference size is 67 MBS (126.4 ÷ 67 = 1.88), and accordingly, the font size is set to 18 or 19 for the letter A in the substitute font considering the reference font size 10. It can be seen that it should be set to (i.e. alternative font size = 18 or 19). That is, the letter 'A' of font size 16 in the original font has to be set to 18 or 19 in the alternative font so that the layout remains similar on the display.

Other operations are possible to achieve the same conclusion. That is, the ratio between the original font and the replacement font is obtained for the letter 'A', and the ratio is multiplied by the original font size set for the letter 'A' in the electronic document. In the above example, the MBS ratio between the original font and the replacement font is 1.18 (ie 79 ÷ 67 = 1.18), so multiplying this by the original font size of 16 yields an alternative font size of 18.88. As a result, the replacement font results in a font size of 18 or 19, which is the same as the previous calculation result.

Meanwhile, in the present specification, one letter 'A' is taken as an example, but the same method is applied to other letters B, C, or the like (1, 2, 3, etc.), and special symbols and letters (, ^, etc.). Apply.

The font implementing means 14d configures the screen by utilizing the substitute font and the substitute font size for each character when the electronic document is implemented in the input / output unit 11. The principle is to perform the above process individually on all text in an electronic document, but if the overall responsiveness is less than the computing power due to the high computing load, then layout-sensitive objects (e.g. tables, spaces, paragraphs with consecutive inputs) in the document It can be implemented to selectively apply to only part).

On the other hand, the font implementing means 14d simply expresses on the input / output unit 11 as a substitute font when it is determined by the font information extracting means 14b that the reference size information is not extractable from the MBS table 15a. .

When the electronic document is opened in the user terminal 10 that can be implemented as a mobile phone, a smart phone, a smart pad, or a PC terminal through the above configuration, if there is no application program that exactly matches the document format, an appropriate alternative application program (alternative software) Can open the electronic document. For example, when opening a docx file created by the MS Word 2010 program on the user terminal 10, if there is no MS Word 2010 program on the user terminal 10, an MS Word Viewer can be executed instead to open the docx document. To provide. However, in the alternative application program, there is a high possibility that there is no font used in the original program. If the original layout is maintained to the maximum through the font processing as described above, there is no complaint.

On the other hand, the storage unit 15 is a space for storing various codes and data for the operation of the terminal control unit 13, and in particular, stores the MBS table 15a for various fonts. In this case, the storage unit 15 is not limited to a form embedded in the user terminal 10, and a method of accessing through a network is also possible.

In addition, the document viewer application 16 represents a set of various applications for opening an electronic document and displaying it on the input / output unit 11.

5 is a flowchart illustrating a process of performing layout maintenance font processing by using the MBS table 15a in the present invention.

First, the MBS engine module 14 receives the font list and sets the MBS table 15a for various fonts (S21). As an example, the MBS engine module 14 receives the font list from the MBS management server 30 through the communication network 20 and updates the MBS table 15a including the reference size information for each character.

That is, the MBS engine module 14 continuously receives the font list, and accordingly prepares the MBS table 15a for each font. The font data (binary data) for each font is not stored in the storage unit 15 of the user terminal 10, but the MBS table 15a is provided. Meanwhile, the MBS table 15a is recorded in the storage unit 15 when the user terminal 10 is first manufactured or when the document viewer application 16 is first installed, and may not be updated thereafter. What is important is that the user terminal 10 establishes the MBS table 15a.

After step S21, the document viewer application 16 of the user terminal 10 opens a specific electronic document (S22). As the user terminal 10 opens the electronic document, the MBS engine module 14 extracts the original font used in the electronic document and selects a substitute font to replace the original font.

At this time, the MBS engine module 14 obtains reference size information of the original font used in the electronic document from the MBS table 15a (S23). At this time, the MBS engine module 14 also obtains reference size information on the substitute font from the MBS table 15a.

As the step S23 is performed, the MBS engine module 14 determines whether information on the original font can be extracted from the MBS table 15a (S24).

First, when it is impossible to extract the reference size information on the original font as a result of the determination in step S24, the MBS engine module 14 implements the basic font as a substitute font (S25). In this case, variations of the document layout are expected.

On the contrary, when it is possible to extract the reference size information of the original font as a result of the determination in step S24, the font process according to the present invention is started for the object in which all characters or layouts included in the electronic document are sensitive (S26).

To this end, when the MBS engine module 14 implements each character of the electronic document, the reference size information (MBS value) of the original font for the character, the reference size information (MBS value) of the substitute font, the original set in the character The font size of the substitute font, that is, the substitute font size, which allows the display layout to be maintained approximately by reflecting the font size comprehensively is calculated (S27). The specific method for calculating the alternative font size that allows the display layout to be maintained approximately from this information has been described above in detail with respect to the font size calculating means 14c.

Then, the MBS engine module 14 sets the substitute font and substitute font size for the corresponding character of the electronic document (S28). Through this, the corresponding character is displayed on the screen using the set substitute font and substitute font size.

6 is a flowchart illustrating another embodiment of a process of performing layout maintenance font processing by using the MBS table 15a in the present invention.

First, the document viewer application 16 of the user terminal 10 opens a specific electronic document (S31). As the user terminal 10 opens the electronic document, the MBS engine module 14 extracts the original font used in the electronic document and selects a substitute font to replace the original font.

After step S31, the MBS engine module 14 of the user terminal 10 requests the MBS management server 30 for the MBS table for the original font used in the electronic document, and correspondingly, the MBS management server 30. MBS table of the original font is provided from (S32). At this time, when the MBS management server 30 has previously provided the MBS table for the original font, the MBS management server 30 finds the MBS table from the database 31 and provides the MBS table to the user terminal 10. On the contrary, when the MBS management server 30 does not have the MBS table for the original font in advance, the MBS management server 30 may be integrated with the font management terminal 40 to generate the MBS table in real time and provide the MBS table to the user terminal 10 in real time. Can be configured to

After the step S32, the MBS engine module 14 obtains reference size information on the original font used in the electronic document and the replacement font for replacing the same from the MBS table 15a (S33). At this time, the MBS table 15a for the original font utilizes the data provided in step S32.

On the other hand, the MBS table 15a for the substitute font may be configured to be provided by requesting further to the MBS management server 30 in step S32, more preferably is configured to be embedded in the user terminal 10. Since the user terminal 10 operates two or three kinds of substitute fonts, the MBS table for these substitute fonts is built in the MBS table 15a of the storage unit 15 in advance. Even when the MBS table 15a for the substitute font is provided from the MBS management server 30, the MBS table 15a is preferably configured to be secured in advance before the electronic document is opened.

Since the processing after step S33 is the same as described above with reference to FIG. 5, a detailed description thereof will be omitted.

The invention can also be embodied in the form of computer readable codes on a computer readable recording medium. At this time, the computer-readable recording medium includes all kinds of recording devices in which data that can be read by a computer system is stored.

Examples of computer-readable recording media include ROM, RAM, CD-ROM, magnetic tape, floppy disk, optical data storage, and the like, which may be implemented in the form of a carrier wave (eg, transmission over the Internet). . The computer readable recording medium can also store and execute computer readable code in a distributed manner over networked computer systems. And functional programs, codes, and code segments for implementing the present invention can be easily inferred by programmers in the technical field to which the present invention belongs.
