Description

[0001]
[Industrial application fields]
The present invention relates to a document creation apparatus capable of setting a character string of a header (header footer) in a document.
[0002]
[Prior art]
Traditionally, in document creation devices such as word processor and DTP (desk top publisher), pillars [for example, the 1st Constitution, Chapter 1 Emperor, Chapter 2 Abandonment of War, Chapter 3 National Rights and Duties ... It is possible to set the heading part that is written outside the frame of the text and outside the box without being listed on the screen, and that is not directly related to the text. By taking a character string, a unique pillar can be set for each page.
[0003]
[Problems to be solved by the invention]
However, in the conventional setting method, when you try to set a string of posts in each page, it is limited to what is displayed (printed) in the document as the heading, exactly the text in the page Unrelated character strings could not be set as pillars. The present invention has been made in view of the above-described problems, and an object of the present invention is to provide a document creation apparatus that sets, as a column, a character string that is completely unrelated to the text in the page for each page.
[0004]
[Means for Solving the Problems]
In order to solve the above-mentioned problem, the present invention specifies a special control code in which a character string of a pillar is sandwiched between special control codes in a sentence, and the designated character string is not drawn as a sentence on a page. Is a document creation device.
[0005]
[Action]
With this configuration, the user (editor) sets a column character string using a special control code in the page, so that characters that have nothing to do with the text in the page are set for each page. Columns can be set as columns.
[0006]
【Example】
Embodiments of the present invention will be described below with reference to the drawings.
[0007]
FIG. 1 is a block diagram showing a circuit configuration of a main part of a document creation apparatus according to an embodiment of the present invention. 1 is a central processing unit for controlling the device and processing data, 2 is an input unit for inputting characters, 3 is a ROM for storing programs, 4 is a RAM for storing various data, 5 is in the RAM 4 In-document character buffer for storing all characters input to the document, 6 in the RAM 4 and column information for storing the column format 9 and column character string, 7 for the output (display) device, 11 for these This is a bus forming an information transmission path between the elements.
[0008]
FIG. 2 is a data configuration diagram for explaining column information according to an embodiment of the present invention. In the column information 6, 8 is a column character string type flag for determining whether the column character string is common to all pages, heading characters, or for each page [for example, flag 0 for all pages common, flag 1 for heading characters, and for each page flag2 etc.], 9 is the position of the column in the page and the typeface of the column character string (for example, Mincho typeface, font type, cursive type, etc.), character size [eg 12 points, 14 points, etc. magnitude like pillars form of 10 is a pillar string buffer containing the string to be displayed as a pillar (printing).
[0009]
3 to 6 are flowcharts for explaining specific operations of the document creation apparatus according to the embodiment of the present invention.
[0010]
FIG. 7 is a diagram illustrating the contents of the in-document character buffer when a column character string is input.
[0011]
In the column character string drawing of FIG. 3, in step 1, a character string to be used as a column on the page is input from the input unit 2 [input column character string]. Thereafter, when setting the column format 9 in the document in step 2, if the column format is set for each column type, a value indicating each page is set in the column character string type flag 8 of the column information 6 [column format setting]. . When the column information 6 is set, characters in the page and column characters are drawn in step 3 and step 4 [character drawing in page, column character string drawing].
[0012]
In the column character string input process shown in FIG. 4 [the specific operation procedure of Step 1 in FIG. 3], first, in Step 5, a character string to be used as a column is input from the input unit 2. When the input of the character string is finished, the column character string start control code and the character string input in step 6 as shown in FIG. 7 [in the above example, Chapter 3, national rights and obligations, etc.] A column character string end control code is added after the character string, and is inserted after the character pointed to by the current character cursor in the in-document character buffer 5.
[0013]
Next, in the in-page character drawing process, as shown in FIG. 5, first, in step 7, characters are extracted from the current page portion of the in-document character buffer 5 one by one, and the characters extracted in step 9 start the column character string. It is determined whether the control code 71 or not. If the extracted character is not the column character string start control code 71, the extracted character is output to the output device 7 in step 10. If the extracted character is the column character string start control code 71, the in-document character buffer 5 is skipped until the column character string end control code 72 appears in step 11. During this process, in step 8, it is determined whether or not the character on the page is finished, and the process is repeated until the character on the page is finished. When the characters on the page are finished, the drawing process for the characters on the page is finished.
[0014]
In the column character string drawing process, as shown in FIG. 6, it is determined in step 12 whether the column character string type in the column information 6 is for each page. The character string in the column buffer 10 [see FIG. 2] is output to the output device 7 as a pillar.
[0015]
In step 12 of FIG. 6, when the column character string type in the column information 6 is page-by-page, the column character string start control code 71 is set in the portion of the current page in the document character buffer 5 in step 14. If the column character string start control code 71 is not found in step 15, the process is terminated. When the column character string start control code 71 is found, the character string up to the column character string end control code 72 is fetched into the column character string buffer 10 in the column information 6 as a column character string in step 16, and the process goes to step 17. The column character string taken in is output to the output device 7.
[0016]
In this manner, it is possible to set a column character string for each page, and an appropriate layout of the column character string can be easily and accurately performed.
[0017]
【The invention's effect】
As is clear from the above description, the present invention can set a column character string for each page using a control code that does not display the character string in the page. When a column is substituted with a frame or the like, such a cumbersome procedure is no longer necessary, and the editing work can be reduced. It is possible to obtain a special effect that the improvement and the appropriate arrangement of the character strings of the pillars are accurately performed.

Claims (1)

When a column character string is input from the document creation input section, the column format is set, the characters in the page are drawn, and the column character string is drawn, the character buffer 1 in the document is used as an in-page character drawing process. The character is taken out and it is determined whether or not the character in the document is finished. If YES, this processing ends. If NO, it is determined whether the character is a column character string start control code. If NO, character drawing processing is performed. Then, the extraction of one character from the document character buffer is repeated, and if it is right, the document character buffer is skipped to the column character string end control code, and the column character string type in the column information is used as the column character string drawing process. Determines whether or not each page, and if not, performs column drawing processing and ends this processing, and if yes, searches for the column character string start control code in the page and searches for the column character string start control Determine if there is code, if not Exit management, document creation device, characterized in that the string up function ends of the pillars string end control code if taking the pillar information.
