It is a schematic diagram of a state in which continuous paper is folded in a zigzag manner. It is a schematic diagram which shows the aspect of multiple imposition. It is explanatory drawing of the state of cutting. It is explanatory drawing of a mode that a pseudo animation is seen.

  Hereinafter, embodiments of the present invention will be described in detail with reference to the drawings. In addition, this invention is limited to the following embodiment and is not interpreted.

  FIG. 1 is a block diagram of an embodiment of the memo pad manufacturing system of the present invention. This embodiment includes an image editing apparatus that is connected to the Internet and communicates moving image data and other information with a user terminal, and an on-demand printing machine that prints a notepad based on information from the image editing apparatus. The image editing apparatus includes a moving image reception unit, a storage unit, an input unit, an image processing unit, a print data generation unit, a transmission unit that transmits data to an on-demand printing machine, and an Internet communication unit (not shown).

  The moving image receiving unit receives moving image data from a user terminal via the Internet, and a known data transmitting / receiving device or buffer memory can be used as appropriate. The format of the moving image data is not particularly limited as long as it is a standard format that is generally used. The size of the moving image data is not particularly limited and may be set as appropriate.

The storage unit is mainly composed of a memory device and stores template image data of a plurality of types of notepads prepared in advance. The template image is, for example, fixed information data printed in common on each page of the memo pad, such as a ruled line printed on the page surface of the memo pad, an entry column, a border decoration, an advertisement, and a column in which a flip book is inserted. Further, information for convenience in the manufacturing process, for example, an alignment mark, a timing mark, a register mark indicating a cutting position, and the like may be included. The user is separately notified of which template data to select from among a plurality of template data.

  In the input unit, the extraction start timing, the extraction end timing, the extraction time interval, the necessity of the extraction of the still image whose time interval has been changed, the change extraction start timing, and the change extraction are extracted from the moving image data notified by the user. Video editing data including information such as end timing, timing such as a change time interval, and template image selection information is input by a known input means such as a keyboard. Note that the notification from the user is not only in writing, but data notified via the Internet may be automatically input to the system.

  The image processing unit creates pseudo moving image data in which a plurality of still image data is cut out from the moving image data and synthesized with the selected template image according to the moving image editing data, and arranged in time order. FIG. 2 is a diagram schematically showing a mode in which a plurality of still image data is cut out from the moving image data 1 to obtain the pseudo moving image data 2. The time interval between frames A to D of the moving image data 1 is every four frames. From frame D to frame H, the frame is cut out every two frames, and from frame H to frame J, it is cut out every 8 frames.

  That is, in the example of FIG. 2, the extraction of the still image with the time interval changed is “necessary”, the first extraction start timing A, the extraction end timing D, and the extraction time interval 4 frames, and then the second extraction start. In this example, the timing D, the cutting end timing H, and the cutting time interval 2 frames are set, and the third cutting start timing H, the cutting end timing J, and the cutting time interval 8 frames are set. In this way, since different timings and time intervals can be set from other parts, when the frames of the pseudo moving image 2 are continuously viewed, the timing D to H is more like a slow motion video than the timing A to D. Moreover, it looks like a fast-forward moving image from timing H to J. In this way, you can create a pseudo movie that looks different depending on the part, and you can extract a still image while setting the part you want to emphasize or omit from the original movie as appropriate, so a pseudo movie with high amusement and attention can be created. Easy to create. Note that the moving image data to be combined with the template is not limited to one type, and a plurality of sets of still image data can be cut out from a plurality of moving image data and combined with the template image.

  Pseudo-movies are generally well-known for so-called flip-flop comics, etc., which are frame-by-frame still images printed on a booklet in chronological order, using the principle of visual afterimage phenomenon. A video can be obtained. If you press the edge of a booklet page with your finger and continuously turn the page so that you can see the pattern that is provided in a frame-by-frame pattern continuously, it looks like a movie. Therefore, it has high amusement properties and is highly effective as an information display means.

  The video data that is the basis of the pseudo-video is not only those with story characteristics such as anime manga, but also those that allow movement such as characters such as characters to dance, jump, rotate, characters, marks, If it is a logo, it can be used to make it look like it expands, shrinks, rotates, or blinks, or it looks like it flows up and down, left and right, diagonally, etc. within the page surface. In the case of an image of a product such as a mechanical device, it is also possible to use a moving image obtained by photographing where the mechanical device is operating. That is, various contents can be used according to the purpose.

The print data generation unit generates print data obtained by collating the pseudo moving image data according to a print layout on a predetermined print sheet and a print order. That is, as one page of print data, print data for multi-sided printing in which a plurality of pseudo moving image data are assigned is created, and print data for printing a plurality of sets of pseudo moving image data in succession is created.

  The on-demand printing machine is communicably connected to the image editing apparatus, receives the print data, and prints it on a predetermined printing paper. Here, the on-demand printing machine does not need to prepare a printing plate corresponding to the recorded contents in advance, unlike conventional printing techniques such as offset printing, and digitizes the print information to be recorded and supplies it from a personal computer. Is a device that can be printed immediately, and various recording methods such as an inkjet method, a laser recording method, an electrophotographic method, and a thermal transfer method are known and put into practical use. Even this method can be applied to the printing press of the memo pad manufacturing system of the present invention. Among these, the ink jet system is preferable because it is excellent in mechanism simplicity, reliability, printing speed, maintainability, and the like. In addition, since these printing machines can record not only black and white images but also full color images, both the black and white images and the full color images can be recorded in the memo pad manufacturing system and the memo pad manufacturing method of the present invention. Can be recorded.

  FIG. 3 is an example of a schematic flowchart for performing notepad printing in the present embodiment. Receiving video data from the user terminal, cutting out still images from the video data, cutting start timing, cutting end timing, cutting time interval, template selection information is obtained and input from the user, and the cutting time interval is changed In this case, information on change cut start timing, change cut end timing, and change time interval is input. Based on these input moving image editing data, a still image is cut out from the moving image, and pseudo moving image data is created. Next, print data such as collation is created and transmitted to the on-demand printing machine for printing.

  FIG. 4 is another example of a flowchart for performing notepad printing in the present embodiment. A description will be given mainly of the different part from the above-described flowchart. After the still image is cut out from the moving image data based on the input moving image editing data and pseudo moving image data is generated, it is transmitted to the user terminal. The user can confirm whether or not a desired display effect such as the appearance of the pseudo moving image is obtained by viewing the transmitted pseudo moving image data before the notepad is actually printed. If there is no problem as a result of the confirmation, a response to that effect is made and a notepad is printed. As a result of the confirmation, if correction of the moving image editing data is necessary, the corrected moving image editing data is transmitted, and pseudo moving image data is created again. As described above, since the pseudo moving image data can be confirmed before actual printing, a memo pad on which the pseudo moving image suitable for the user's request is printed can be created.

  FIG. 5 is an explanatory diagram showing a printing aspect of the front and back surfaces in the memo pad manufacturing method of the present invention. The recording area 11 of the first page, the recording area 12 of the first page 12, the recording area 13 of the third page, and so on are sequentially provided on the continuous sheet, and the first page and the third page are sequentially odd on the front side 10 in order. The print information of the page is printed, and the print information of the second page, the fourth page, and the even page is sequentially printed on the back side 10R reversed in the width direction of the continuous paper, and so on. As shown in FIG. 5, the front and back print modes are printed in the reverse direction with respect to the flow direction of the continuous paper indicated by the arrow A on the back side. Here, the front surface and the back surface are simply names for distinguishing the surfaces to be printed, and do not mean any particular difference.

  The border 15 of each page is a part that becomes a crease when it is folded in a zigzag shape after printing, and a border line may be printed for easy understanding of the position, or a perforation is provided for easy folding. May be. Although not shown, a sprocket hole for guiding the conveyance of the sheet may be provided on the side in the continuous sheet flow direction.

  In order to print on both the front and back sides, various commercially available on-demand printing machines can be used as appropriate according to the required specifications, and a printing mechanism is provided on each of the front and back sides of the path for transporting continuous paper. It can also be used as an on-demand printer that records on both sides with the printing timing linked to the front and back, or as an on-demand printer with a mechanism that prints on the back side after printing on the front side by turning the paper with a turn bar etc. good. If it is an inkjet printer, a drying unit or the like may be provided as necessary. Further, a necessary surface treatment such as providing an ink absorbing layer according to the printing method may be performed on the printing surface of the continuous paper.

  FIG. 6 is a diagram illustrating a state in which the continuous paper 20 after printing is folded in a zigzag manner at the boundary 21 of each page. As described with reference to FIG. 5, the print information of the odd-numbered pages 22 and the print information of the even-numbered pages 23 are recorded separately on the front side and the back side, and the back side corresponds to the continuous sheet flow direction with respect to the front side. By printing in the opposite direction, the print information on each page overlaps with the same side and direction when folded.

  FIG. 7 shows another embodiment of the memo pad manufacturing method of the present invention, in which a plurality of types of memo pads are laid out in a multi-sided layout in the recording area for each page. Print information 31 and 33 for odd-numbered pages multi-sided on the front side 30 of the continuous paper is recorded, and print information 32 for even-numbered pages is recorded on the back side 30R reversed in the width direction. The The odd page print information and the even page print information are opposite to the flow direction of the continuous sheet, as described in FIG. When folded in a zigzag manner, they are provided at positions overlapping in the same direction, for example, ABC, A-U-U, and U-T--B.

  Multi-sided print data is created by the print data generation unit, but can be easily edited with a personal computer or the like and supplied to an on-demand printing machine, as in the case of single-sided printing. Similarly, the reverse side can be reversed or the print information can be different for each page.

  FIG. 8 is an explanatory view for explaining a cutting process in the memo pad manufacturing method of the present invention. In the printed matter for notepad 40 of the present invention, which is folded and stacked in a zigzag shape after printing on each page, one side edge that becomes a binding portion of the side edges is cut along a cutting position by a known cutting device or the like. Then, the adhesive surface 42 is glued to the cut surface, and the right and left side portions and the opposite side portions are cut at a cutting position according to a predetermined size, and the pieces 46, 47, 48 are cut from each side. This is a booklet-like memo pad 41.

  As a method of binding one side edge of the printed matter 40 for the notepad, in addition to gluing and binding one side edge, for example, the one side edge of each page is adhesively bonded with a low-adhesive adhesive to each page. A method of binding each page so that it can be removed one by one, and firmly bonding and fixing one side edges of each page with an adhesive, staple, binding string, etc., and a position slightly inward from the fixing portion of each page It is possible to bind by various methods, such as a method in which a perforation is made in the sheet and each page is cut out from the perforation as necessary. Further, a front cover, a back cover, a mount or the like may be added.

  The shape of the memo pad 41 is a quadrilateral in this example, but is not particularly limited, and can be implemented in any shape according to the cutting die shape. Further, the size is not limited, but it is preferable that the size is suitable for hand-rolling, and is about A4 size or less at maximum. The number of pages is not particularly limited as long as it is a memo pad as long as it is a plurality of pages, but is practically about 500 pages or less. The material of each page is not limited to paper, but can be used by hand, and synthetic paper, plastic sheets, wood chips, etc. can be used as long as they have handwriting ability, moderate flexibility and durability. .

  FIG. 9 briefly describes a method of viewing a pseudo moving image with a memo pad manufactured by the memo pad manufacturing method of the present invention. In the example shown in FIG. 9, the memo pad 50 provided with the pseudo moving images 52 and 53 is glued and bound by the adhesive surface 51 on the back side, so the back side 55 of the memo pad is held with the left hand as shown in (2). Then, hold the front side 56 with a right finger or the like and bend it slightly downward. As shown in (1) to (4) of FIG. 9, since still images are printed in chronological order for each of a plurality of pages, the right finger is slightly put on the plurality of pages at an arbitrary speed. By sequentially shifting the pages one by one, the pages 54, 54, 54 from (1) to (4) are turned in order from the top, and, for example, the pattern information 52 moves from right to left by the afterimage effect. Thus, if it is the illustration information 53, it will be seen as a pseudo animation so that a flower may grow and a flower may bloom.

  The original video of the simulated video can be used by cutting out a frame image from any video file such as a live-action video or an animation video, and it can also be used to convert normal text information and logo marks, hand-drawn pictures and illustrations into digital data. It may be added. At that time, a continuous frame image may be used, or a frame image extracted in a time-lapse manner at every arbitrary time may be used, and may be set as appropriate in consideration of the number of pages of the notepad. In any case, it is fun to watch, can give a strong impression to the user of the notepad, and can enhance the information display effect.

  As described above, according to the memo pad manufacturing system and the memo pad manufacturing method of the present invention, not only the original function of the memo pad but also a pseudo animation like a flip book can be provided effectively and easily.
