BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 1. Field of the Invention The present invention relates to a document creating apparatus capable of pasting image data read from an image reading apparatus such as an image scanner into a created document.

[0002]

2. Description of the Related Art In a document creation apparatus such as a word processor, a document can be created by mixing not only character data but also various data such as key lines and figures. Recently, it has become possible to input image data such as photographs and illustrations into a document using an image reading device such as an image scanner.

Conventionally, regarding input of image data,
As described in Japanese Patent Application Laid-Open No. 63-120557, there has been an apparatus in which an input image is displayed on a screen once when an image is input, and a partial area is specified on the screen.

As another related technique, after an image area is created, an image input from a scanner is instructed on an image editing screen, a necessary range is designated from the read image information, and a necessary range is designated in a document. There was something to input image data.

However, in the first conventional technique, consideration is given to how to paste image data read from an image reading device into a document composed of characters, figures, and the like. Had not been.

Further, in the second prior art, although it is possible to take in an image, it is necessary to create an image area before inputting an image. When the range of the information exceeds the range of the image area, there is a problem that the size of the image area must be once again enlarged and the image must be input again.

[0007] Therefore, an object of the present invention is to make it possible to cut and paste manually by allowing the cut-out area of the image specified by the user to be directly pasted into the document when the image data is taken into the document. It is an object of the present invention to provide a document creation device that can be operated with the same feeling and that can input an image by a simple procedure.

A second object of the present invention is to provide a simple procedure for re-reading an already input image in the above-mentioned image data capture even if the image has already been input. It is to provide a possible document creation device.

[0009]

The object of the present invention is to provide an input unit for inputting a description element such as a character, a key line, a graphic, or an image to be described in a document; a storage unit for storing the input data; In a document creation device comprising: a display unit for displaying data stored in a storage unit; and a control unit for performing various editing controls so that the data stored in the storage unit is formatted as a document. When cutting and pasting the image data, the display unit displays the image data input by the input unit, and according to the display, a cut-out range specifying unit that specifies a necessary range; The document data is displayed on the display unit, and in accordance with the display, an image for specifying in which position in the document the range specified by the cut range specifying unit is to be pasted.

A control unit 53, an image input control unit 54, an image editing control unit 55, a frame cursor control unit 56, and the like. Here, the character control unit 52 controls the editing of the text data 32, and similarly, the graphic control unit 53
Denotes the graphic data 33, the image input control unit 54, and the image editing control unit 55 control the image data 34, and the frame cursor 56 controls the frame cursor management data 40.
Next, reference numeral 6 denotes an output unit such as a printer for printing the input contents.

Next, creation and editing of a document in the Japanese word processor of this embodiment will be described.

First, in the initial state, when the operator instructs the creation of a new document or the update of an already created document, the editing control unit 51 is first activated. The processing at this time will be described with reference to FIG.

The editing control unit 51 first determines whether the operator's instruction is new creation or document update. In the case of new creation, the document data is initialized, and a document of only one page is created as initial data. In the case of document update, the document data to be updated is called from the storage unit 3 (step 10).
1). Next, the editing control section 51 lays out the document on the display section 2 (step 102) and waits for an editing instruction from the input section 1 (step 103, FIG. 5). If there is an input from the input unit 1, the content is determined by the editing control unit 51 (step 104), and if a character is instructed, the character control unit 5
2 to perform character input and edit processing (step 1
05) If a figure is designated, the figure control unit 53
Is started to perform the input and edit processing of the figure (step 10).
6) If the image input has been instructed, the image input control unit 54 is activated to execute the image input processing (step 107). If the image editing is instructed, the image edit control unit 55 is activated. Then, the image is edited (step 108). Also, the above input,
When the end is instructed in each editing process,
The layout display (step 102) is performed, and an edit instruction from the input unit 1 is waited again (step 103). If the end of the document editing is instructed in the determination of the input in step 104, the editing is ended (step 109) such that the created document data is stored in the storage unit 3, and the editing of the document is ended.

Next, an image input process (step 107) for directly reading an image on the layout screen will be described with reference to FIGS. 1, 3, 8 to 20, and 26 to 28.

First, when the image input processing is designated,
The user selects whether to input a new image and paste it on a document or to re-input an already created image area (step 201, FIG. 6). If a new input is selected (step 202), an input condition setting screen is displayed (FIG. 26), and information on the dot density, density, paper direction, and pasting magnification of the image to be read is set (step 205). . After the input conditions are specified, when execution is instructed (step 206), the input conditions are stored in the input condition management data 35. (Step 20
7). On the other hand, if cancellation is instructed in step 206, the process returns to step 201. If re-input is specified in step 202, an image area to be re-input is specified (step 203), and when execution is instructed (step 204), input conditions are set (step 2).
05). If cancellation is instructed in step 202 or when the image area is designated (step 203), the image input function ends. Now, when the setting of the input conditions is completed in steps 205 to 207, in order to specify an image to be cut on the screen next,
First, provisional reading of image data is performed to create provisional reading image data 39 (step 208), which is displayed on the screen (step 209), and a cutout range is designated for the displayed provisional reading image data (step 208). 21
0). In the cut range specification, first, a frame cursor of the largest size in which an image area can be created within a range (called a basic area) excluding a margin portion of a created document is initially displayed as a cut frame (FIG. 8). By moving the frame or changing the size of the frame, the user designates a range to be cut out of the image displayed on the screen (FIG. 9). At this time, every time the cut frame is moved or resized, the information of the cut frame is stored in the frame cursor management data 40 (step 211). Next, after setting the cutting range of the temporary reading data, when execution is instructed (step 21)
2) The contents of the frame cursor management data 40 are stored in the cutout frame management data 36 (step 213), the layout of the document being created is displayed (step 215), and the paste destination of the image is specified there (step 216). . on the other hand,
If cancellation is instructed in step 212, the process returns to input condition setting (step 205). First, in the case of the same size mode and the automatic enlargement / reduction mode, the pasting frame is initially displayed as the pasting frame in the same size as the pasting frame on the document being created (FIG. 10). On the other hand, in the case of the enlargement / reduction ratio designation mode, the cutout frame is corrected to the enlarged or reduced size with respect to the designated ratio, and is initially displayed (FIG. 11). Subsequently, the user moves the pasting frame to a position where the pasting frame is to be pasted (FIG. 1).
2) By changing the size (FIGS. 13 to 1)
6), and specify the paste destination for the created document (FIG. 17).
At this time, every time the paste frame is moved or resized, the information of the paste frame is stored in the frame cursor management table 40 (step 217). Also, when changing the size of the image pasting frame, in the same size mode or scaling ratio specification mode, if the size of the pasting frame is smaller than the size of the initial display frame, the initial display frame is pasted. Is displayed so as to be aligned with the upper left of FIG. 13 (FIG. 13). When the size of the pasting frame is larger than the size of the initial displaying frame, the initial displaying frame is displayed so as to be located at the center of the pasting frame (FIG. 1).
5). Further, in the case of the automatic enlargement / reduction calculation mode, the cutout image is enlarged / reduced and displayed according to the size of the pasting frame (FIGS. 14 and 16). Next, when the execution is instructed after determining the image pasting destination (step 218), the contents of the frame cursor management data 40 are stored in the pasting frame management data 37 (step 219), and the area attribute change screen is displayed. Then, an area attribute setting is performed (step 220). Further, when the cancellation is instructed in step 218, the temporary reading image data is redisplayed (step 209), and the cutting range of the temporary reading image data is designated.
Return to (Step 210). Next, after selecting the item of the area attribute, when execution is instructed (step 221), the input information is stored in the area attribute management data 38 (step 2).
22) After the formal reading of the image data is performed (step 223), the document composition data 31 and the document configuration data 31, based on the input condition management data 35, the cutout frame management data 36, the pasted frame management data 37, and the area attribute management data 38, are read. After the image data 34 is created (step 224), the layout of the document being created is displayed (step 225), a continuous input selection screen is displayed (FIG. 28), and continuous input designation is performed (step 226). If cancellation is instructed in step 221, the document being created is displayed again (step 2).
15), Designation of image paste destination (step 216)
Return to By the way, in the continuous input designation (step 226),
It is possible to specify whether to continue inputting an image, and in the case of continuous inputting, it is possible to cut out the image read in step 208.
And "continuation (new image)" that can cut out a new image. When "continuation (same image)" is specified (step 227), temporary reading data is displayed based on the original temporary reading image data 39 (step 209), and the cutout range can be specified again for the image. (Step 210). At this time, by copying the contents of the cutout frame management data 36 to the frame cursor management data 40, the cutout frame initially displays a frame having the same size as that of the previous cutout at the same position (FIG. 9). Therefore, in the case where illustrations having the same size and order are continuously cut out from the same drawing, the illustrations arranged side by side can be cut into the same size only by moving the frame cursor vertically and horizontally (FIG. 18). .
Also, when pasting the image (step 216), since the previously created image has already been displayed in the document being created as an image area, it is possible to paste while looking at the position of the image. When "continue (new image)" is designated (step 227), an input condition setting screen (FIG. 26) is displayed, and input conditions are set.
(Step 205), the image input processing can be performed again from the beginning. Therefore, even if it is desired to continuously cut an image from another drawing, the image can be cut continuously.
Also, when "function end" is designated, the image input processing ends.

Next, an image editing process (step 108) in which an image area is first created, and an image is read and edited at the time of editing in the area will be described with reference to FIGS. 1, 4 and 21 to 28. I do.

In the image editing process, "new creation" for initially creating and editing a new image area, and "update" for updating and editing a previously created image area can be selected (step 301, FIG. 7). ). When "new creation" is selected, first, the position of the image area is set (step 302, FIG. 21). After the position is determined, when execution is instructed (step 303), the area attribute setting screen (FIG. 2)
7) is displayed and the area attribute is set (step 30).
4). If cancellation is instructed in step 303, the image editing process ends. When the execution is instructed after the setting of the area attribute (step 305), the document composition data 31 and the image data 34 are updated (step 306), and an image editing screen is displayed (step 307, FIG. 24). As the editing, selection of new input of an image, editing of data, or completion of editing can be performed. This image editing screen enables image editing within the size of the newly created image area (FIG. 22). Further, when the cancellation is instructed in step 305, the position of the area can be set again (step 302). When "update" is selected in step 301, an image area to be updated is designated, and then execution is instructed (step 310).
The image editing screen is displayed (step 307), and the user can select image area editing. At this time, the image editing screen can also perform image editing within the range of the size of the updated image area. Further, when the cancellation is instructed in step 310, the image editing process ends. Next, image region editing will be described. When a new input of an image is selected, an input condition setting screen is displayed (FIG. 26), input conditions are set (step 311), and when execution is instructed here, formal reading of image data is performed (step 313). And displays the read data (step 31).
4), and designate a cutting range (step 315, FIG. 2)
3). If cancellation is instructed in step 311, the image editing screen is redisplayed (step 307), and the process returns to selection of image area editing. After the cut range is designated, when execution is instructed (step 315), cut data is displayed (step 317), and the process returns to selection of image area editing (step 307). When the cancellation is instructed in the input judgment of step 315, the input condition setting screen (FIG. 26) is displayed, and the input condition is set again (step 311). If data editing is selected at the time of selecting image area editing (step 308), data editing processing such as image movement and copying is performed (step 318). When this is completed, the image editing screen is displayed again (step 307), and the editing of the image area can be selected. If the user selects the end of editing in the input determination of the selection of image region editing (step 308), the image data 34 is created (step 319), and the image editing ends (FIG. 25). From the above, when the image input process (step 107) is used, first, when the cut range is specified (step 210), a necessary range is specified from the image data input from the input unit, and then, When the image paste destination is specified (step 216), the user specifies the position in the document where the range specified by the cut range is to be pasted, and reads the image based on the information. Similarly, image input can be performed by a simple procedure.

Further, the image input control unit can designate, by specifying the input mode (step 201), whether to newly input an image or to re-input an already created image area. in case of,
Specify an image area that has already been created (step 2
03) Since the image is formally input to the designated image area, even if the user wants to read the already input image again,
Re-entry is possible with a simple procedure.

In the continuous input designation (step 226), after the first image input is completed, it is possible to select whether or not to input an image continuously, and the next image input can be performed continuously. If you want to read a large amount, you can easily operate.

In the continuous input designation (step 226), when inputting continuously, it is determined whether the same image is input.
The user can specify whether to input a new image. According to the specification, the image input control unit 54 does not specify the image input condition when the same image is specified.
The processing is executed again from the specification of the cutting range by the above-described cutting area specification, and when a new image is specified, the processing is executed again from the specification of the image input condition. Therefore, there are a plurality of figures on one sheet of paper. In such a case, since it is not necessary to read the same image many times, it is possible to input images of a plurality of figures with good operability.

Further, continuous input designation (step 226)
If the input of the same image is specified by, the cut range specification displays the previously cut range as the initial condition of the cut range.Therefore, there are multiple figures on one sheet of paper. When it is desired to cut out the image in the same size as in the drawing, the cutting can be performed only by a simple operation such as moving the cutting range.

When specifying the magnification, it is possible to specify whether to keep the original size or to enlarge or reduce the size at the time of inputting an image. You can specify whether to scale automatically to fit. In the formal reading of image data (step 223), the image is read in accordance with the mode specified by the above-mentioned magnification specification. The magnification can be changed.

In addition, designation of an image pasting destination (step 2)
16) calculates the size of the pasting range according to the size specified by the cut range specification (step 210) and the magnification specified by the image input condition setting, and sets the frame of the calculated size as an initial value. Since it is displayed, you can see at a glance how large it is actually read. This also makes it easier to grasp the relative relationship with the created document.

When a mode other than the automatic enlargement / reduction mode is specified in the image input condition setting, the image pasting destination is specified (step 216). If the pasting range is larger than the cutting range, the center position of the cutting range is pasted. The cut range is centered and displayed separately from the paste range so that it matches the center position of the paste range, and when the formal image is read, if the paste range is larger than the cut range, the cut range is set to the center of the paste range. Enter a white dot in the empty area around the cut area so that it is located, and if the paste area is smaller than the cut area, place the cut area in contact with the upper left of the paste area Sometimes, the cut range is entered in a form that deletes the part that protrudes from the paste range, so the cut image is pasted into the created document Kicking at the time, also by changing the cut scope and size, in a way that was commensurate with the paste size, it is possible to easily image input.

[0030]

As described above, according to the present invention, when the image information is cut and pasted into a document by the cut-out range designating means, the image input control section first converts the image data input by the input section. Specify the required range from among them, and then specify where in the document the range specified by the cut range specifying unit is to be pasted by the image area setting unit, and input by using the official image input unit. Since the image data in the range specified by the cut-out range specifying means is extracted from the image data input by the section, and the extracted image data is captured as document data at the position specified by the image area setting means. As in the case of the manual cutting and pasting work, the image can be input by a simple procedure.

The image input control unit specifies, by the input mode designating means, whether to newly input an image or re-input to an already created image area. By specifying means,
Specify an image area that has already been created, and formally input the image for the specified image area, so even if you want to re-read the already input image, Re-entry is possible with a simple procedure.
