  In the conventional typesetting digitized data creation method, after the layout digitized data created by the designer is printed out, the designer or editor assigns identification numbers to a plurality of display areas in the printed out layout. Based on these identification numbers, the writer or editor creates documents, illustrations, photos, etc. with the corresponding identification numbers (or if documents, illustrations, photos, etc. have been created, those documents) , Give corresponding identification numbers to illustrations, photos, etc.). By collating these identification numbers, a plurality of contents digitized data obtained by digitizing a plurality of corresponding contents are combined with a plurality of display areas of the layout digitized data. However, in the conventional method, the operation of combining the corresponding content digitized data for a plurality of display areas in the layout digitized data is performed manually by the operator. For this reason, there is a problem that it takes a long time to create the formatted electronic data based on the electronic layout data. Further, when not only the work of combining corresponding contents for a plurality of display areas but also the work of assigning identification numbers to the plurality of display areas is performed manually, the composition work is further complicated. In particular, in one typesetting operation, when there are many display areas in the digitized layout data, or when there are a large number of printed pages, the typesetting digitized data to be created is atypical data. The point becomes even more prominent.

  Further, in the conventional typesetting digitized data creation method, if the resolution of the image of the typesetting digitized data is not appropriate, the image may become rough or a striped pattern due to interference action may occur. For this purpose, the resolution of the image of the typesetting digitized data must be set to an appropriate resolution. In addition, if the color mode or file format of the image of the formatted digitized data is not appropriate, a printing accident may be caused. For this reason, the color mode and file format of the image of the formatted digitized data must be set appropriately. However, the image of the layout digitized data with image data created by the designer does not necessarily have an appropriate resolution, color mode, and file format. Therefore, it is necessary to adjust the image resolution, color mode, and file format of the layout digitized data with image data to appropriate values. However, the operation of finding out an improper image, taking it out from the typesetting digitized data, and arranging the image after adjusting the resolution or the like at the original position is performed manually by the operator. Such manual operation for rearranging the adjusted image is often performed by the operator's eye amount, and therefore, when the adjusted image is rearranged on the digitized layout data with image data, there is a positional shift. The problem that occurs occurs. Further, even a skilled operator has a problem that it takes a long time to create the digitized data based on the digitized layout data with image data.

  An object of the present invention is to provide a typesetting digitized data creation system capable of easily creating typesetting digitized data.

  Another object of the present invention is to provide a typesetting digitized data creation method, a typesetting digitized data creation program, and a medium thereof that can easily create typesetting digitized data.

  Another object of the present invention is to provide a typesetting digitized data creation method, a typesetting digitized data creation program and a medium thereof, and a typesetting digitized data creation system in which an identification number is not lost in a display area of layout digitized data. It is in.

  Still another object of the present invention is to provide a typesetting electronic that does not cause misalignment when rearranging the adjusted image on the digitized layout data with image data when the image of the digitized layout data with image data is adjusted. It is an object of the present invention to provide a computerized data creation method, typesetting digitized data creation program and medium thereof, and a typesetting digitized data creation system.

  An object of the present invention is to provide a typesetting digitized data creation method capable of easily rearranging an adjusted image on layout digitized data with image data when an image of digitized layout data with image data is adjusted. Another object of the present invention is to provide a typesetting digitized data creation program, its medium, and a typesetting digitized data creation system.

  The typesetting digitized data creation system of the present invention creates digitized layout data obtained by digitizing a layout document having a plurality of display areas on which a plurality of contents such as image contents and character contents are displayed. Then, by combining the data indicating the plurality of display areas of the layout digitized data with a plurality of content digitized data obtained by digitizing a plurality of corresponding contents, the formatted digitized data necessary for creating the typesetting is created. . Here, in a plurality of display areas of the digitized layout data, a plurality of contents such as image contents composed of images and character contents composed of characters can be displayed as a plurality of contents. Note that image content and / or character content may be displayed in advance on all or part of the display area before an identification number to be described later is assigned.

  The typesetting digitized data creation system of the present invention includes an identification number assigning unit, an information output unit, a content digitized data creating unit, and a combination unit. The identification number assigning means automatically assigns an identification number to data indicating a plurality of display areas in the digitized layout data. The information output means outputs information about contents that can be displayed in the display area together with the identification number for each of the plurality of display areas. The content digitized data creation means assigns the same identification number as the identification number assigned to the data indicating the corresponding display area to the plurality of content digitized data created based on the output information to the storage means. Store. The combination means combines the data indicating the plurality of display areas of the layout digitized data and the corresponding plurality of contents digitized data stored in the storage means according to the identification number.

  If the identification number is automatically assigned, the identification number is automatically assigned to the plurality of display areas in the digitized layout data. Therefore, the assignment of the identification number to the plurality of display areas in the digitized layout data is shortened. Can be done in time. Further, it is possible to prevent the identification number from being lost on the display area in the digitized layout data. As the identification number, any number may be used as long as each of the plurality of display areas in the digitized layout data can be identified. However, considering that the identification number can be easily confirmed, it is preferable to use numbers, characters or symbols as the identification number.

In addition, when a plurality of character display areas in which a plurality of character contents are displayed are included in the plurality of display areas, the information output unit displays the character display area together with the identification number for each of the plurality of character display areas. It is preferable to output information about the amount of character content that can be displayed on the screen. When the content digitized data creation means digitizes a plurality of character contents based on the information output by the information output means to create a plurality of character content digitized data, each of the plurality of character content digitized data is created. A corresponding identification number is assigned. In this case, the combination means combines a plurality of corresponding character content digitized data with a plurality of character display areas of the layout digitized data.
Data indicating a plurality of display areas of layout digitized data in accordance with the identification number after automatically assigning identification numbers to a plurality of display areas in the digitized layout data as in the system for producing typesetting digitized data of the present invention In addition, when combining a plurality of corresponding content digitized data, the work of combining the corresponding content for a plurality of display areas in the layout digitized data, which has been performed manually by the operator so far, may be omitted. it can. Therefore, it becomes easy to create typesetting electronic data based on the layout electronic data. Further, since the identification number can be given to the data indicating the display area of the layout digitized data without omission, it is possible to prevent the identification number from being lost on the layout digitized data.

In particular, since the content digitized data is created based on the information about the content that can be displayed in the display area, it is possible to obtain the content digitized data that surely fits in the display area using this information. For example, the information output means can output information on the amount of character content that can be displayed in the character display area together with the identification number for each of the plurality of character display areas. In this case, a plurality of character content digitized data obtained by digitizing a plurality of character contents is created based on the output information. In this way, if character content digitized data is created based on information about the amount of character content that can be displayed in the character display area, it is possible to prevent a situation in which the amount of character content is insufficient or too large. Can do.
The typesetting digitized data creation system of the present invention may further include data condition adjusting means for adjusting the data conditions of the plurality of contents digitized data to predetermined data conditions. If the data conditions of a plurality of content digitized data are adjusted to predetermined data conditions, the format of the content digitized data can be unified. Also, when combining multiple content digitized data such as images and characters into multiple display areas of layout digitized data, tasks such as deleting line breaks in document content and adjusting the color mode of image content are automatically performed. It can be carried out.

  The invention of the typesetting digitized data creation system described above can also be specified as typesetting digitized data creation and a typesetting digitized data creation program for executing this. This typesetting digitized data creation program corresponds to each of a plurality of display areas of digitized layout data obtained by digitizing a layout manuscript having a plurality of display areas on which a plurality of contents such as image contents and character contents are displayed. The composition digitized data is created by combining a plurality of contents digitized data obtained by digitizing a plurality of contents. Such a typesetting computerized data creation program is installed in a computer to execute the above method.

  Note that the above-described typesetting digitized data creation program can also be provided as a recording medium on which this is recorded. By providing a recording medium in which such a typesetting digitized data creation program is recorded, the typesetting digitized data creation method of the present invention can have versatility.

When the present invention is specified as a typesetting computerized data creation method, it is as follows. First, the method of the present invention creates digitized layout data obtained by digitizing a layout document having a plurality of display areas including an image display area and a character display area on which a plurality of contents such as image contents and character contents are displayed. , Typesetting electronic data for creating typesetting electronic data necessary for making a typesetting by combining a plurality of contents digitizing data obtained by digitizing a plurality of corresponding contents with data indicating a plurality of display areas of the layout digitizing data The method for creating computerized data is targeted. Then, identification numbers are automatically assigned to data indicating a plurality of display areas in the digitized layout data (identification number giving step). Next, for each piece of data indicating a plurality of display areas, information about contents that can be displayed in the display area is output together with an identification number (information output step). Then, a plurality of content digitized data is created based on the output information, and the same identification number as the identification number assigned to the data indicating the corresponding display area is assigned to each of the created content digitized data (content Electronic data creation step). Finally, according to the identification number, a plurality of corresponding content digitized data is combined with data indicating a plurality of display areas of the layout digitized data (combination step).
Next, a case where image content digitized data obtained by digitizing image content is created by the system of the present invention will be described. In this case, it is assumed that the plurality of display areas include a plurality of image display areas for displaying image content. This system includes image content digitized data creating means for creating image content digitized data for obtaining a display image to be displayed in the image display area. In this case, as described above, after automatically assigning an identification number to the plurality of display areas in the layout digitized data, the data indicating the plurality of display areas of the layout digitized data according to the identification number, It is also possible to combine a plurality of corresponding content electronic data. In that case, the system may be configured such that the image content digitized data creation means includes the above-described layout digitized data creation means, identification number assigning means, information output means, and combination means.

  This image content digitized data creating means creates temporary image data that is created based on actual image data obtained by digitizing a real image and is used to create a temporary image including a display portion displayed in the image display area. Data creation means for inputting data including temporary image specifying information for specifying the size of the image and the display portion of the temporary image displayed in the image display area, actual image data, and position information adding means Have. Based on these inputs, the data creating means creates from the actual image data image content digitized data having the same size as the temporary image and a predetermined resolution. The position information adding unit is configured to make the display image created based on the image content digitized data and displayed in the image display area the same as the display portion of the temporary image displayed in the image display area. The position information is added to the image content digitized data.

  Data relating to the size of the temporary image and the positional information of the display portion of the temporary image displayed in the image display area is given from the information output means. The real image data is accompanied by data of the resolution of the real image.

According to this typesetting digitized data creation system, the display image created based on the image content digitized data and displayed in the image display area is the same as the display portion of the temporary image displayed in the image display area. Position information for this is added to the image content digitized data. As a result, when the actual image data (resolution of actual image data, color mode or file format, etc.) is adjusted to create the image content digitized data, the adjusted actual image data (image content digitized data) is There is no misalignment when rearranging on the electronic layout data. Further, the adjusted actual image data can be easily rearranged on the electronic layout data with image data.
In this typesetting digitized data creation system, the position information adding means uses the positional relationship between the display portion of the temporary image displayed in the image display area and the image display area as position information, and the image content digitized data (adjusted actual data). (Image data) is preferably added. In this way, the temporary image data and the adjusted actual image data can be replaced on the basis of the positional relationship between the display portion of the temporary image displayed in the image display area and the image display area. It is possible to reliably prevent misalignment when rearranging data.

To make the display image created based on the image content digitized data (adjusted actual image data) and displayed in the image display area the same as the display portion of the temporary image displayed in the image display area The position information is obtained as follows. For example, coordinate information indicating the position of the display portion of the temporary image and the image display area is used. For example, the positional relationship indicates an arbitrary point other than the central coordinates located at the center of the temporary image displayed in the image display area and the central coordinates located on the display portion of the temporary image displayed in the image display area. The positional relationship with one coordinate is defined as position information. In this way, when the actual image obtained by visualizing the adjusted actual image data is arranged, the center coordinate and one coordinate are matched with the coordinates determined based on the display portion of the temporary image (that is, the temporary image is displayed). Since the positional relationship between the image display area and the provisional image previously determined using the image data can be used as it is, the provisional image and at least the actual image whose resolution has been adjusted to a constant value can be replaced. Positional misalignment when rearranging image data can be prevented more reliably.
Also, in this case, the image content digitized data creation means is a data in which data information other than the size and resolution of the temporary image is predetermined among the data information such as the size, resolution, color mode, and data format of the temporary image. Data information creation means for creating image content digitized data to be information from actual image data can be included. In this way, data information other than the size and resolution of the provisional image can be adjusted to predetermined data conditions, so that the data in the typesetting digitized data can be unified.
The present invention relates to the plurality of display data corresponding to the plurality of display areas of digitized layout data obtained by digitizing a layout document having a plurality of display areas on which a plurality of contents such as image data and character data are displayed. It can be specified as a typesetting digitized data creation program that creates a typesetting digitized data necessary for creating a typesetting by combining a plurality of contents digitized data obtained by digitizing the contents. This program is configured to execute the above-described identification number assigning step, information output step, content digitized data creation step, and combination step by a computer.

  According to the present invention, the identification number is automatically assigned to the data indicating the plurality of display areas in the digitized layout data, and the data indicating the plurality of display areas of the layout digitized data is dealt with according to the identification number. Since each of the plurality of contents digitized data is combined, the operation of combining the corresponding contents for the plurality of display areas in the layout digitized data, which has been performed manually by the operator so far, can be omitted. This makes it easy to create typesetting data based on the digitized data. Further, since the identification number can be given to the display area of the layout digitized data without omission, it is possible to prevent the identification number from being lost on the layout digitized data.

  Further, according to the present invention, the display image created based on the image content digitized data and displayed in the image display area is the same as the display portion of the temporary image displayed in the image display area. In order to add position information to the image content digitized data, when the actual image data is adjusted to create the image content digitized data, the adjusted real image data is rearranged on the layout digitized data with the image data. There will be no misalignment. Further, when the actual image data is adjusted, the adjusted actual image data can be easily rearranged on the digitized layout data with image data.

First, an example of an embodiment of the present invention will be described with reference to the drawings. FIG. 1 is a diagram in which an image of a layout is visualized on a display based on layout electronic data used in the present embodiment. FIG. 2 is a diagram showing a state in which the typesetting is visualized on the display based on the typesetting digitized data created in the present embodiment. In FIG. 1, what is indicated by reference numeral 1 is an image created on the computer display based on the digitized layout data. Since it is difficult to display the contents of data in one figure, this display image will be described as layout electronic data for convenience. The layout digitized data 1 is obtained by digitizing a layout document and is created by a designer. The digitized layout data 1 includes data for indicating a plurality of display areas 3 on which a plurality of contents such as image contents and character contents are displayed. In this example, the plurality of display areas 3 are composed of ten display areas 3a, 3b, 3c, 3d, 3e, 3f, 3g, 3h, 3i and 3j. As will be described later, among these display areas, illustration content including illustrations is displayed in the illustration display area 3a. The image display areas 3b, 3g, 3i, and 3j display image contents including images, and the character display areas 3c, 3d, 3e, 3f, and 3h display character contents including characters. In the image display areas 3b, 3g, 3i, and 3j of the electronic layout data 1, image contents are displayed in advance. In the character display areas 3c, 3d, 3e, 3f, and 3h where the character content is displayed, the number of characters WQ (number of characters per line and the number of lines) is displayed.
In FIG. 2, the code | symbol 5 has shown the display image of the typesetting visualized based on the typesetting electronic data on the display of a computer. Since it is difficult to display the contents of the typesetting digitized data, this display image will be described as the typesetting digitized data 5 for convenience. The typesetting digitized data 5 is obtained by digitizing the typesetting and is created based on the layout digitizing data 1. The formatted electronic data 5 is combined with digitized content data obtained by digitizing a plurality of contents such as image contents and text contents at a position corresponding to the display area 3 of the layout document visualized based on the layout digitized data 1. Has been. In the example of FIG. 2, the illustration content 6 visualized based on the illustration content digitized data obtained by digitizing the illustration content is displayed in the display area 3a. In the image display areas 3b, 3g, 3i, and 3j, the image content 7 (7a, 7b, 7c, and 7d) visualized based on the image content digitized data obtained by digitizing the image content is displayed. Furthermore, in the character display areas 3c, 3d, 3e, 3f, and 3h, the character content 9 (9a, 9b, 9c, 9d, 9e) is visualized and displayed based on the digitized data of the character content. ing. In the following, since the electronic data cannot be seen with eyes, the illustration content 6, the image content 7 and the character content 9 are used to refer to these electronic data for the sake of convenience. This will be described as character content digitized data 9. The illustration content digitized data 6 and the image content digitized data 7 are image data including data information such as size, resolution, color mode, and data format, and the character content digitized data 9 is text data.

  Hereinafter, steps necessary for a method of creating a digitized data performed in the formatted digitized data creation system will be described. FIG. 3 is a flowchart showing an algorithm of a typesetting digitized data creation program installed in a computer when the typesetting digitized data 5 is created from the layout digitized data 1 using the computer. FIG. 4 is a diagram showing a state in which an identification number is assigned to the display area 3 which is visualized on the display digitized data 1 and displayed on the display. FIG. 5 is a diagram used when explaining the process of creating the formatted electronic data 5 by combining the layout electronic data 1 and the content electronic data 6, 7, 9. 4 and 5, portions common to those in FIGS. 1 and 2 are denoted by the same reference numerals as those in FIGS. 1 and 2, and description thereof is omitted. In this typesetting digitized data creation method, an identification number assignment step (ST1), an information output step (ST2), a content digitized data creation step (ST3, ST4), a condition adjustment step (ST5), and a combination step ( Step ST6) is executed. Specifically, a program for realizing a plurality of function execution means necessary for the system is installed in the computer and executed in the computer.

  In the identification number assigning step (ST1), identification numbers are automatically assigned to data indicating a plurality of display areas 3 in the layout electronic data 1. The given identification number is visualized and displayed in each display area 3 of the visualized layout document. In FIG. 4, the number indicated by reference numeral 11 is an identification number. As the identification number, any number may be used as long as each of the plurality of display areas 3 in the layout document can be identified. However, it is preferable to use numbers, letters, or symbols in consideration of easy identification number identification. In the example shown in FIG. 4, numerals “1” to “10” indicated by reference numerals 11, 11... Are used as identification numbers. Identification numbers are assigned to a plurality of display areas without distinguishing between image display areas and character display areas. Further, as the identification number, an image display is performed such that a numerical identification number is assigned to the character display areas 3c, 3d, 3e, 3f, 3h, and an alphabetic identification number is assigned to the image display areas 3b, 3g, 3i, 3j. Different types of identification numbers may be assigned to the areas 3b, 3g, 3i, 3j and the character display areas 3c, 3d, 3e, 3f, 3h, respectively. This makes it easy to distinguish the image display areas 3b, 3g, 3i, 3j and the character display areas 3c, 3d, 3e, 3f, 3h due to the difference in the type of the identification number. Even when data and digitized data are handled at the same time, the typesetting work becomes easy.

  The identification number may be assigned either regularly or irregularly. However, in this example, in the display area of the layout document, from the display area located in the upper area on the left side to the display area located in the lower area, and then from the display area located in the upper area on the right side to the lower area. Identification numbers 1 to 10 are assigned to the display area in order of increasing numbers. In this way, it becomes easy to individually search for the identification number assigned on the layout document in which the layout digitized data is visualized. Therefore, it becomes easy to specify each display area on the layout document in which the layout digitized data is visualized. As shown in FIG. 4, when the content digitized data is already included in the layout digitized data 1, the data indicating the display area 3 in which the content digitized data is displayed includes an identification number. Although the assignment is performed, it is possible to set so that the identification number is not displayed when the digitized layout data 1 is visualized. As described above, in the identification number assigning step (ST1), since the identification number can be automatically assigned to the data indicating the display area 3 of the layout digitized data 1, a plurality of display areas 3 of the layout digitized data 1 are displayed. It is possible to assign an identification number to the data indicating “” in a short time.

  In the information output step (ST2), information about content that can be displayed in the plurality of display areas 3 is output together with the identification number assigned in the identification number assignment step (ST1). In this example, as information output in the information output step (ST2), identification number information for identifying the display area and the number of characters WQ of the character content displayed in the character display areas 3c, 3d, 3e, 3f, 3h Information of (number of characters per line and number of lines) is output together. Also, as will be described later, provisional image specification for specifying the size of the provisional image obtained by visualizing provisional image data and the display portion displayed in the image display area, which are necessary when displaying image content in the image display area Information can also be output in the information output step (ST2).

  In the content digitized data creation step (ST3, ST4), a plurality of content digitized data is created (ST3) based on the information output in the information output step (ST2). Also, identification numbers 1 to 10 (numbers indicated by reference numeral 11 'in FIG. 5) corresponding to the identification numbers assigned to the display areas to be displayed are given (ST4). The identification number (number indicated by reference numeral 11 'in FIG. 5) may be given at the same time as or before or after the creation of the character content electronic data 9, or the operator may give this identification number. In this example, based on the information output in the information output step (ST2), it corresponds to the identification number (numbers 1 to 10 indicated by reference numeral 11) given to the data indicating the display area 3 of the layout digitized data 1. Identification numbers (numerals 1 to 10 indicated by reference numeral 11 ') are assigned to text data of a plurality of corresponding character content digitized data 9 (9a, 9b, 9c, 9d, 9e) as shown in FIG. To do. For example, a manuscript writer (writer) uses text data creation software or the like, inputs a single identification number, then starts a new line, and inputs text data of character content corresponding to the identification number. When the next text data is input, after a line break, the identification number is input and the text data (character content digitized data 9) is input to the next writing area after the line break.

  In this example, the reason is to distinguish the number 1 to 10 (the number indicated by reference numeral 11) used for the identification number from the character content digitized data 9. That is, since the numbers 1 to 10 used for the identification number are also text data like the character content digitized data 9, the identification number is not handled as part of the character content digitized data 9. The plurality of character content digitized data 9 may be stored together in one file, or may be distributed and stored in a plurality of files. In this example, the plurality of character content digitized data 9 are collectively stored in one file.

In the condition adjustment step (ST5), the condition adjustment of the content digitized data (6, 7, 9) is performed. In this example, although not shown in the figure, as the condition adjustment of the character content digitized data 9, automatic line feed deletion processing, full-width conversion processing, Arabic numeral processing, square bracket processing, double quotation processing, linkage processing with external characters, ruby processing, etc. Data condition processing is performed. Regarding the processing of these data conditions, the processing conditions can be set in accordance with the conditions of the content digitized data 6, 7, and 9, and the processing of the data conditions can be individually or appropriately combined. Here, the new line automatic deletion process is a process for forcibly deleting all the new lines input to the character content digitized data 9. However, when it is necessary to display a headline or the like on the typesetting digitized data 5, a line feed is input again by inputting a designated line feed tag. The full-width conversion process is a process for converting all half-width characters input to the character content digitized data 9 into full-width characters. However, in the case of horizontally written English characters, they are maintained as half-width characters. In addition, the Arabic numeral processing is performed by converting all double-byte characters into half-width characters when the Arabic numerals displayed in double-byte characters are written horizontally. However, when the number of Arabic numerals is one, a quarter-width space is input before and after the converted half-width character. When writing Arabic numerals displayed in full-width characters vertically, if the Arabic numerals are 1 or 2 digits, convert the full-width characters to half-width characters and store them in one corner. If the Arabic numerals are 3 digits, A full-width character is changed to one-third and stored in one corner. When the Arabic numeral is four or more digits, the full-width character is converted into a half-width character and stored one character at a time. In the bracket process, when a bracket is input at the beginning of the character content digitized data 9, a single-byte space is input before the bracket. The double quotation processing is performed when double quotations are input to the text content digitized data 9. If horizontal writing is performed after pouring, superscript is used for both front and rear, and upper writing is used for vertical writing after pouring. Is a process of converting the lower right side to the left side. Also, the linkage processing with external characters is processing for automatically converting characters into external characters by enclosing the characters in special parentheses such as black brackets. The ruby process is a process for automatically inputting ruby by including the input ruby information in the text content digitized data 9 based on a predetermined rule. By performing these processes, it is possible to unify the conditions of the text content digitized data 9 before typesetting.
Although not shown, adjustment of data information such as enlargement / reduction processing, resolution processing, color mode processing, and data format processing is performed as information adjustment of the image content digitized data 7. Here, the enlargement / reduction processing is processing for enlarging or reducing the size of the image content digitized data 7 to a predetermined size. The resolution process is a process for adjusting the resolution of the image content digitized data 7 to a predetermined resolution. The color mode process is a process of converting the color mode of the image content digitized data 7 to a predetermined color mode (for example, converting to CMYK when the color mode is not CMYK or gray scale). The data format process is a process of converting the data format of the image content digitized data 7 into a predetermined data format (for example, converting to the EPS format when the data format is other than the EPS, PSD, or TIFF format). Thus, by processing the data information of the content digitized data 6, 7, 9 in step (ST5), the format of the content digitized data 6, 7, 9 can be unified. Further, when combining a plurality of content electronic data such as image content and character content with data indicating a plurality of display areas of the digitized layout data 1, deletion of line breaks in the document content, adjustment of the color mode of the image content, etc. Work becomes easier.

  In the combination step (ST6), according to the identification number (in this example, a number of 1 to 10), a plurality of content digitized data 6, 7, 9 corresponding to the data indicating the plurality of display areas 3 of the layout digitized data 1 are displayed. Are combined. Specifically, in this example, when the character content digitized data 9 is input to the CPU of the computer, the numbers 1, 2, and 3 of the identification numbers given to the data indicating the plurality of display areas 3 of the layout digitized data 1 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10 and the numbers 3, 4, 5, 6, 8 of the identification numbers of the character content digitized data 9a, 9b, 9c, 9d, 9e are queried. As a result of the inquiry, the digitized content data 9a, 9b, 9c is converted into data indicating the plurality of display areas 3 of the layout digitized data 1 with reference to the numbers 3, 4, 5, 6, 8 of the common identification numbers. , 9d, 9e are combined. In this way, the typesetting digitized data 5 is completed based on the layout digitized data 1.

As described above, according to the present embodiment, after the identification numbers (numbers indicated by reference numeral 11) are automatically assigned to the data indicating the plurality of display areas 3 in the electronic layout data 1, the electronic layout data 1 A plurality of contents digitized data 6, 7, 9 digitized corresponding to this identification number are combined with the data indicating the plurality of display areas 3, respectively. As a result, the operation of combining the corresponding contents with the data indicating the plurality of display areas 3 in the electronic layout data 1 that has been performed manually by the operator can be omitted. The work of creating the typesetting digitized data 5 based on 1 becomes easy. Moreover, since the identification number can be given to the data that displays the display area 3 of the layout digitized data 1 without omission, the identification number is missing on the display area 3 when the layout digitized data 1 is visualized. There is no.
As described above, the data creation method of the present invention can be specified as a typesetting digitized data creation program for executing this and a recording medium on which the program is recorded. The computerized electronic data creation program can be executed on the CPU of the computer. Further, by recording the program on a recording medium, the typesetting digitized data creation method of the present invention can be made versatile.
Next, a system configuration of an example of the embodiment of the present invention will be described. FIG. 6 is a block diagram showing a system configuration of an example of the embodiment of the present invention. As shown in FIG. 6, the typesetting digitized data creation system of this embodiment includes an identification number assigning means 13, an information output means 15, a combination executing means 17, and a content digitized data creating means 18. ing. The identification number assigning means 13 generates an identification number that is assigned to data indicating the display area 3 in the layout digitized data 1 input from the layout digitized data input means 12 for inputting the layout digitized data. It is combined with the generating means 14. The identification number assigning means 13 automatically assigns an identification number (number indicated by reference numeral 11) to the data indicating the plurality of display areas 3 in the digitized layout data 1 (step ST1 in FIG. 3). Effective). The information of the identification number assigned to the data indicating the display area 3 by the identification number assigning means 13 is stored in the information storage means 16 together with the information of the electronic layout data 1.

  The information output means 15 outputs information on the identification number assigned to the display area 3 stored in the information storage means 16 and information on the amount of content that can be displayed in the display area 3 together with the identification number (FIG. 3). Step ST2 is executed).

  The content digitized data creation means 18 creates a plurality of content digitized data 6, 7, 9 based on the information (identification number and content amount) output from the information output means 15. Then, an identification number corresponding to the identification number assigned to the display area 3 is assigned to the created plurality of content electronic data 6, 7, and 9. Then, the combination executing means 17 combines the plurality of corresponding content digitized data 6, 7 and 9 with the data indicating the plurality of display areas 3 of the layout digitized data 1 according to the assigned identification numbers (FIG. 3 step ST6). In this example, the combination means 30 is attached with condition adjusting means 31 for adjusting conditions such as the format of the content digitized data 6, 7, 9 (corresponding to step ST5 in FIG. 3).

  In this example, the content digitized data 9 created based on the information output by the information output means 15 is sent to the content digitized data storage means via the content digitized data input means 19 for inputting the content digitized data 1. 21. The contents digitized data 9 stored in the contents digitized data storage means 21 and the identification number information given to the data indicating the display area 3 stored in the information storage means 16 are respectively stored in the identification number inquiry means 23. The identification number is queried. Then, the common identification numbers are combined by the combination means 30 by the inquiry result determination means 25 for determining the inquiry result, and the typesetting digitized data 5 is completed (step ST6 in FIG. 3). The completed typesetting digitized data 5 is stored in the typesetting digitized data storage means 27 and outputted to the outside by the typesetting digitized data output means 29.

  In the state where each content digitized data is combined with the layout digitized data 1, whether the identification number is displayed in each display area 3 on the image obtained by visualizing the layout digitized data on which each content is displayed. Whether or not is arbitrary. In this case, if the identification number is set to be displayed together with each content in each display area 3, the identification displayed in each display area 3 in a state where each content digitized data is combined with the layout digitized data 1. Since the relationship between the number and each content can be visually recognized, management of the arrangement of each content becomes easy. In this case, it goes without saying that the identification number may be set to be displayed only in the display area where either the character content or the image content is displayed.

  Further, when the identification number is displayed in the display area where the character content is displayed, a phenomenon in which a portion where the character content and the identification number overlap is difficult to see occurs. In this case, the identification number can be easily recognized by coloring the background of the identification number. However, when an identification number is assigned to a display area where character content is displayed in advance, the character content cannot be recognized because the character content is concealed in the background within the colored background. Therefore, although not particularly illustrated, in this example, the background is colored so that the background is translucent after being colored. In this way, even when an identification number is assigned to a display area in which character content is displayed in advance and the identification number and the character content overlap, the identification number and the character content can be distinguished from each other. Both number and character content can be recognized. The background may be colored either achromatic or chromatic. The degree of translucency (transmittance) of coloring may be set to a transmissivity that can distinguish and recognize the identification number and the character content with 50% as a guide.

When the text content digitized data is combined with the layout digitized data, if the number of characters of the text content digitized data is larger than the number of characters that can originally enter the display area, the text content is displayed in the layout digitized data display area. May overflow. For this reason, although not particularly illustrated, in this example, the portion overflowing from the display area is set to be displayed in a different font (character type, character color, etc.) from the character content displayed in the display area. For example, if the character color of the character content displayed in the display area is black, but the character color of the portion overflowing from the display area is set to be red, the overflowing portion can be clearly recognized.
Next, an embodiment of a typesetting digitized data creation method and system including a method for adjusting image data of layout digitized data with image data will be described with reference to the drawings. FIG. 7 and FIG. 8 are diagrams showing an aspect in the case of performing the combination work by visualizing the layout digitized data used in this embodiment. FIG. 9 is a flowchart showing an algorithm of a program used when the typesetting digitized data creation method of the present embodiment is carried out using a computer. FIG. 10 is a diagram used to explain a method of adjusting image data of digitized layout data with image data using the present embodiment. FIG. 11 is a block diagram showing the configuration of the typesetting digitized data creation system of this embodiment. In these drawings, parts similar to those shown in the drawings for explaining the first embodiment shown in FIG. 1 to FIG. A reference numeral added with the numeral is added and the description is omitted.

  In FIG. 7, reference numeral 101 is a diagram obtained by visualizing electronic layout data with image data on a display. In the following description, the invisible data is replaced with an image for convenience, and is described as the layout digitized data 101 with image data. The digitized layout data 101 with image data includes actual image data 102 (102a, 102b, 102c, 102d) that is the basis for creating the image content digitized data 107 (107a, 107b, 107c, 107d), and image content digitized data. Provisional image data 104 (104a, 104b, 104c, 104d) corresponding to the data 107 (107a, 107b, 107c, 107d). The layout digitized data 101 with image data includes provisional image specifying information. The actual image data 102 is visualized and displayed in the image display areas 103b, 103g, 103i, and 103j as a temporary image (temporary image data visualized on the visualized layout digitized data).

  The provisional image data 104 is created based on the actual image data 102, and when the layout digitized data 101 is visualized, the display portions 110 (110a, 110b, 110b, 110a, 110b, and 110j) of images displayed in the image display areas 103b, 103g, 103i, and 103j. 110c, 110d) is image data for creating a temporary image. The display portion 110 may be exactly the same as the actual image data or may be a part thereof. In this example, the display portion 110 displayed at the top of FIG. 7 corresponds to a portion obtained by dividing the actual image with a broken line.

  The temporary image data 104 (104a, 104b, 104c, 104d) is image data that is a base of an image displayed on the screen when the layout electronic data 101 with image data is visualized. The temporary image data 104 is digitized image data that is temporarily created based on the real image data 102 (102a, 102b, 102c, 102d) to visualize the real image data 102 on a display. In the temporary image data, there is no need to pay attention to conditions such as resolution. This is because the temporary image data is used to determine the layout of the image in the digitized layout data.

  The temporary image specifying information is information for specifying the size of the temporary image to be visualized using the temporary image data 104 and the display portion 110 displayed in the image display areas 103b, 103g, 103i, and 103j. The temporary image specifying information will be described in detail later.

  In the typesetting digitized data creation method of this embodiment, digitized image content data is created using a program having the algorithm shown in FIG. In this algorithm, in order to obtain display images to be displayed in the image display areas 103b, 103g, 103i, and 103j shown in FIGS. 7 and 8, an image content digitized data creation step including six steps (ST101 to ST106) is executed. To do. This digitized image content data creation step (ST101 to ST106) includes a data creation step (ST101, ST103, ST104) and a position information addition step (ST102, ST105, ST106). In this position information adding step, information on the rotational frequency (not shown) can be added. In the data creation step (ST101, ST103, ST104), the image content digitized data 107 (107a, 107b, 107c) can create an image having the same size as the temporary image and a predetermined resolution. 107d) from the real image data 102. In this example, 350 dpi is used as a predetermined fixed resolution. In the position information addition step (ST102, ST105, ST106), the display image visualized based on the image content digitized data 107 and displayed in the image display areas 103b, 103g, 103i, 103j is the layout digitized data with image data. Is added to the image content digitized data 107 so as to be the same as the display portion 110 of the temporary image displayed in the image display areas 103b, 103g, 103i, and 103j when the image is visualized on the display. Is done. In the position information addition step (ST102, ST105, ST106), the positional relationship between the temporary image 104 and the image display areas 103b, 103g, 103i, 103j is added to the image content digitized data 107 as position information.

  In this embodiment, the display images created based on the image content digitized data 107 and displayed in the image display areas 103b, 103g, 103i, and 103j are displayed in the image display areas 103b, 103g, 103i, and 103j. Position information is used so as to be the same as the display portion 110 of the temporary image. This position information includes coordinate information indicating the relationship between the position of the temporary image obtained by visualizing the temporary image data 104 and the position of the image display areas 103b, 103g, 103i, and 103j. In this example, as the positional relationship, the coordinate P1 indicating an arbitrary point located in the display portion 110 of the temporary image displayed in the image display areas 103b, 103g, 103i, and 103j and the center of the temporary image are located. The positional relationship with the center coordinate P2 is used.

  First, in step ST101, the size of the temporary image data 104 shown in FIG. 7 (corresponding to the relative size with respect to the layout of the image obtained by visualizing the temporary image data 104) and the resolution are confirmed (ST101). The size of the temporary image data 104 is larger than the size of the display portion 110 in relation to the display portion 110 displayed in the image display areas 103b, 103g, 103i, and 103j. In FIG. 7, the resolution of the actual image data 102a is 600 dpi, and the resolution of the actual image data 102b is 300 dpi. When the actual image data 102a and 102b are used as they are, the resolutions of the temporary image data 104a and 104b are 600 dpi and 300 dpi. Since the temporary image data is used to determine the layout, there is no need to worry about the resolution. When the size of the actual image obtained by visualizing the actual image data is smaller than the image display area, enlargement adjustment is performed via the temporary image so that the visualized image is larger than the image display area. If the actual image is too large, the reduction adjustment is performed via the temporary image so that the visualized image fits in the image display area. In FIG. 7, the display portion 110 that is actually displayed on the screen is a part of the temporary image obtained by visualizing the temporary image data 104, and therefore the resolution of the display portion 110 is the same as the resolution of the temporary image data 104. Specifically, the display portions 110a and 110b are 600 dpi and 300 dpi, respectively. When the digitized layout data with image data is actually visualized on the display, for the sake of convenience, only the display portion 110 of the temporary image data 104 is visualized in the image display area, and the other portions are not visible on the display. It has become.

  Next, as shown in FIG. 10, one coordinate P1 in the display portion 110 when the temporary image data 104 is visualized in the image display area and the center coordinate P2 of the temporary image when the temporary image data 104 is visualized. Check. Then, the positional relationship between one coordinate P1 in the display portion 110 and the center coordinate P2 of the temporary image is confirmed (ST102). This positional relationship is displayed in the image display area in the digitized layout data together with the size of the temporary image data (corresponding to the size of the image relative to the layout when the temporary image is visualized). Stored as part 110 data. In this example, since one coordinate P1 in the temporary image is a coordinate on the temporary image corresponding to the corner located at the upper left of the display portion 110, it is easy to set a reference point when arranging the image. Become. Theoretically, however, the one coordinate P1 may be the coordinate of any position in the display portion 110. By confirming the positional relationship between one coordinate P1 of the display portion 110 in the temporary image visualizing the temporary image data 104 and the central coordinate P2 of the temporary image, the layout with image is determined based on the confirmed positional relationship information. The positional relationship with the image 104a (corresponding to the display portion 110) obtained by visualizing the temporary image 104 in the image obtained by visualizing the digitized data 101 is specified.

  Next, the size and resolution of the actual image obtained by visualizing the actual image data 102 are confirmed (ST103). When the size of the actual image that visualizes the actual image data 102 is smaller than the size of the temporary image that visualizes the temporary image data 104, the size of the temporary image 104 and the size of the actual image are the same. As described above, the actual image data 102 is adjusted to enlarge the image. If the resolution of the actual image is not 350 dpi, adjustment is performed on the actual image data so that the resolution of the actual image becomes a predetermined resolution of 350 dpi (ST104). Data whose resolution has been adjusted in this way becomes image content electronic data. In this example, the digitized image content data is visualized at the top of FIG. 8, and a part of the image 108a is partitioned by a broken line as a portion displayed in the image display area 103b. . In the lowermost part of FIG. 8, the image content digitized data is visualized, and a part of the image 108b is shown as a portion displayed in the image display area 103g by a broken line.

  On the other hand, when the size of the real image obtained by visualizing the real image data 102 is larger than the size of the temporary image, the size of the temporary image and the size of the real image are set to the same size in the real image data 102. On the other hand, an adjustment for reducing the actual image is made. Further, the actual image data 102 is adjusted so that the resolution of the actual image becomes a predetermined 350 dpi resolution (ST104).

  Next, information on the positional relationship between one coordinate P1 of the temporary image and the central coordinate P2 of the temporary image confirmed in ST102 is added to the actual image data 102 whose conditions have been adjusted. This positional relationship information includes information on the degree of rotation of the temporary image centered on P2. As a result, the images 104a and 104b obtained by visualizing the temporary image data 104 are replaced with the images 108a and 108b obtained by visualizing the adjusted actual image data 102, and the step is finished (ST106). 8 shows a state where display portions 108a and 108b obtained by visualizing the actual image data 102 are displayed in the image display areas 103b and 103g.

  When the typesetting digitized data creation method of the present embodiment is used, a temporary image based on the temporary image data is used when determining the layout of the image in the layout digitized data 101 with image data. You don't have to worry about When creating actual image data to be used, the actual image data is adjusted to the same size as the temporary image, the resolution is adjusted to be constant, and the positional relationship information is obtained. Work to add to image data. Then, the adjusted actual image data (image content digitized data 107) is rearranged on the layout digitized data 101 with image data. In this way, since the position information determined by the temporary image is added to the actual image data, the image data rearranged on the layout digitized data 101 with image data (adjusted actual image data) is visualized. However, no positional deviation occurs.

  Further, since the image data of the digitized layout data with image data 101 is rearranged on the digitized layout data with image data 101 as image data whose resolution is adjusted to a predetermined fixed resolution, the resolution is high. There is no problem caused by the difference. That is, in the present embodiment, the layout is performed using the temporary image, the positional relationship between the image display area and the image is clarified using the temporary image, and the actual image is based on the information about the positional relationship. Since the data is adjusted and actually arranged on the layout digitized data 101, even if the image size and resolution of the image data to be used are different, it is easy without causing positional displacement due to enlargement or reduction of the image. The real image data after adjustment can be rearranged.

  Furthermore, although not shown, in the typesetting digitized data creation method of the present embodiment, the image content digitized data creation step includes the provisional image data out of the data information such as the size, resolution, color mode, and data format of the temporary image. It includes a data information creation step for creating image content digitized data from actual image data that can create an image in which data information other than the size and resolution becomes predetermined predetermined data information. By further executing such a data information creation step, data information other than the size and resolution of the temporary image can be adjusted to predetermined data information. Can be achieved.

  The typesetting digitized data creation method of the embodiment described above can also be specified as a typesetting digitized data creation program for executing this and a recording medium on which the program is recorded. By providing such a typesetting digitized data creation program and its recording medium, the typesetting digitized data creation method of this embodiment can be executed on a computer, and the typesetting digitized data creation of this embodiment The method can be versatile.

  Next, a typesetting digitized data creation system for executing the method of the above embodiment will be described with reference to FIG. FIG. 11 is a block diagram showing the configuration of the typesetting digitized data creation system of this embodiment. As shown in FIG. 11, the typesetting digitized data creation system according to the present embodiment is the image content digitized data 107 (107a, 107b, 107) for obtaining a display image to be displayed in the image display areas 103b, 103g, 103i, 103j. 107c and 107d) includes image content digitized data creation means 201.

  This image content digitized data creation means 201 is constituted by each means from the data creation means 203 to the replacement means 217. The data creation means 203 has the same size as the temporary image based on the electronic layout with image data including the data about the image layout and temporary image input from the layout electronic data input means 202 with image data. In addition, data that is the basis for creating the image content digitized data 107 that can create an image with a predetermined resolution from the actual image data 102 (data such as the actual image data and the size of the temporary image) Data). Based on the data created by the data creation unit 203, the temporary image size confirmation unit 207 confirms the size of the temporary image obtained by visualizing the temporary image data (execution of step ST101 in FIG. 9). Then, the size of the actual image obtained by visualizing the actual image data 102 by the actual image data adjusting unit 209 becomes the same size as the size of the temporary image visualized by the temporary image data 104 confirmed by the temporary image size confirming unit 207. Further, the actual image data is adjusted so that the resolution of the actual image becomes a predetermined fixed resolution (implementation of steps ST103 and ST104 in FIG. 9). The adjusted actual image data is stored in the adjusted image storage unit 211 as the image content digitized data 107.

  On the other hand, with respect to the input digitized layout data 101 with image data, the temporary image position information confirmation unit 213 confirms the position information of the temporary image data 104 (execution of step ST102 in FIG. 9). The confirmed position information of the temporary image data 104 is stored in the position information storage unit 215. The position information of the stored temporary image data 104 is added by the position information adding means 205 to the image content digitized data 107 which is the actual image data after adjustment stored in the adjusted image storage means 211 (ST105). That is, in the position information adding means 205, display images created based on the image content digitized data 107 and displayed in the image display areas 103b, 103g, 103i, 103j are displayed in the image display areas 103b, 103g, 103i, 103j. Position information for making it the same as the display portion 110 of the provisional image is added to the image content digitized data 107.

  In this example, a data information adjustment unit 217 is provided to adjust data information other than the size and resolution of the temporary image among the data information such as the size, resolution, color mode, and data format of the temporary image. Yes. The data information adjusting unit 217 is configured to display each data of the image content digitized data 107 which is the actual image data adjusted so that the data information such as the color mode, the inclination, and the data format becomes predetermined constant data information. Information is adjusted (execution of step ST105 in FIG. 9).

  Then, the replacing unit 219 replaces the temporary image data 104 with the image content digitized data 107 which is the actual image data after adjustment (ST106).

  For example, when the resolution of the actual image data 102 is relatively high at 600 dpi, the data capacity of the layout digitized data 101 including the temporary image data becomes large, and the creation of the image content digitized data (data transfer or processing) Etc.) takes time. For this reason, it is preferable that the resolution of the actual image used when creating the layout digitized data 101 is low (data capacity is small). Therefore, for example, when creating the layout digitized data 101, real image data with a low data capacity (hereinafter referred to as low-capacity real image data) obtained by adjusting the resolution of the real image based on the real image data 102 to be used to 72 dpi. You may make it use. It should be noted that the resolution after the change is not limited to 72 dpi, and it is needless to say that the resolution is such that it does not take time to create the layout digitized data 101 (data movement or processing).

  In this case, when the creation of the layout digitized data 101 is completed, an operation of returning (replacing) the real image data subjected to the low capacity adjustment to the real image data 102 before the change is performed. The reason why the low-volume-adjusted real image data is returned (replaced) to the real image data 102 before the change is that when the layout digitized data 101 including the low-capacity-adjusted real image data is printed, the printed image becomes rough. . The operation of returning (replacing) the low-volume adjusted real image data to the real image data 102 before the change is performed as follows. When any one of the image display areas 103b, 103g, 103i, or 103j of the digitized layout data 101 is designated, an “image selection” icon that can select actual image data 102 (not shown) is displayed. When the icon is designated, the actual image data 102 can be selected entirely or individually. Here, the real image data 102 corresponding to the low-capacity adjusted real image data is individually selected and designated, and the real image data 102 to be returned (replaced) is specified. When there are a plurality of low-capacity adjusted real image data and when these low-capacity real image data are simultaneously returned (replaced) to the real image data 102, the low-capacity adjusted real image data and real image A common identification number may be given to the data 102 to link both real image data. As a common identification symbol, a symbol such as the same alphabet can be given. In addition, as a method of assigning a common identification number to the real image data and the real image data 102 that have been subjected to the low capacity adjustment, the identification number when the target is the image content in the typesetting digitized data creation method of FIG. 3 is used. You may use the method to provide. In this case, if the above-mentioned “image selection” icon is designated and designation is made so that the entire real image data 102 is selected, the real image data 102 corresponding to all the low-capacity adjusted image data is specified simultaneously. Can be configured. In this way, each low-capacity actual image data can be returned to the actual image data.

  Further, for image data such as photographs (hereinafter referred to as main image data) used for composition, actual image data (referred to as uncorrected actual images) for which advanced image data correction such as color correction and clipping has not been completed yet. In the case of using image content digitized data including the image data, after the creation of the image content digitized data 107 is completed, the unmodified actual image data can be replaced with the main image data. The operation of replacing the actual image data with the actual image data is performed by using the low-capacity adjusted actual image data described above except that the low-capacity actual image data is uncorrected actual image data and the actual image data 102 is the actual image data. This is the same as the work of replacing the image data 102. Note that when the image content digitized data 107 including uncorrected actual image data is used and the resolution of the uncorrected actual image data is high (the data capacity is large), the above-described low-capacity adjusted actual image data is actually used. As in the case of replacement with the image data 102, the uncorrected actual image data may be handled as low-capacity actual image data having a lower resolution (lower data capacity). The embodiments of the invention described in the present specification are listed below.
