DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION

[0001]

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION The present invention relates to a natural person,
When a corporation or other organization or its representative, etc., desires a seal, that is, a stamping tool engraved with a sirshi, a mark (character or graphic) for displaying its own identity on the end face, a seal manufacturer is required to create it. The present invention relates to a method for automatically creating order information for placing an order, that is, a method for creating a document that can specify a desired seal and place an order without the advice or assistance of an expert, or a method for automating online ordering.

[0002] The present invention is not limited to the above-described seal itself, but also to a method for automatically creating order information, which is expanded to a set of seals including auxiliary tools, such as a seal storage case, a case with red meat, a chain for carrying, and the like.

Although there is much demand as a valuable necessity that is still frequently used as (Shirushi) even today, it is necessary to recognize a wide variety of attributes that specify the seal, and it is necessary to recognize professional commentary and standards. It was customary for applicants to consult, arrange, and place orders with technicians who have a great deal of knowledge and experience in making seals. However, there was still a difference between the seal of the ordered image and the actual seal that was created and obtained, and there were things that were not satisfactory.

[0005] Such discrepancies or dissatisfactions are thought to be caused by the inadequateness of the orderer to present a presentation that is easy to understand from the viewpoint of the orderer.

An object of the present invention is to provide a seal ordering person
Order information of seals that can be obtained by selecting the desired information from the wide variety of information required for ordering the seal without expert advice or assistance and ordering a specific seal with the desired conditions It is to provide a method for automatically creating a.

[0007]
