Description

  The present invention relates to an information processing apparatus, an information processing method, and a program, and more particularly to a technique for outputting ruby.

Conventionally, it is possible to create documents with various layouts using a personal computer or the like. In particular, layout processing for printed matter such as magazines and newspapers is generally performed by a DTP (Desk Top Publishing) system.

Such a document editing system has a function of adding ruby to a character (column) so that the reader can easily read the text. Here, the character to which the ruby is attached is generally said to be a parent character. In addition, there are three types of ruby, which are generally known as “mono ruby”, “group ruby”, and “jukugo ruby”.

"Mono ruby" is ruby attached to each parent character. For example, “ya” is added as a mono ruby for “wild” in “wild bird”. Therefore, if a line break is entered between “Field” and “Bird”, (Monorubi) “Ya” is output for (Parent Character) “Field”, and the line is broken to the next line (Parent Character) “Bird” "(Mono ruby)" Cho "is output.

The “group ruby” is ruby attached to the entire parent character composed of a plurality of characters. For example, “Yacho” is added as a group ruby to two characters “wild bird”. Therefore, if the line is cut between “wild” and “bird”, either “bird” is driven into the line, or “wild” is driven to the next line, and a series of characters “wild bird” is included in the same line. In addition to the output, the group ruby “Yacho” is output to (wild character) “wild bird”.

"Jukugo-ruby" is a ruby attached to a parent character (jukugo) composed of multiple characters. If the ruby does not protrude from each parent character of the idiom, it is output as a mono-ruby. If the ruby protrudes from each parent character, the ruby is output like a group ruby. Also, idiom ruby is divided like mono ruby when a line break occurs in the middle of idiom, and ruby is output.

As described above, when a group ruby is broken in the middle of a group ruby, the parent character is driven into or out of the same line. For example, when a long parent character is set, the number of characters in the line decreases. The gap between characters was too large. In order to solve this, Patent Document 1 proposes to divide a parent character string and a group ruby at a preset division reservation point.

JP 11-191101 A

  However, in the above-described prior art, it is necessary to set in advance a division reservation point that defines a part to be divided. Therefore, the larger the amount of text, the more complicated the setting work, and the easy-to-view ruby is output with a simple operation. It was difficult.

Furthermore, recently, it has been demanded to attach two ruby to one parent character. For example, it is desired that an English ruby and a Chinese ruby are simultaneously attached to a Japanese character string as a parent character. In this way, when a plurality of ruby are attached to the same parent character, it is also conceivable to set a division position in consideration of the plurality of ruby in order to output with good appearance.

Furthermore, a plurality of types of ruby (mono ruby, group ruby, idiom ruby) described above may be set for a plurality of ruby attached to the same parent character.
Such a division position setting operation in consideration of a plurality of rubies and a plurality of types of rubies is a complicated operation that is difficult for the user to make a determination.

An object of the present invention is to provide a mechanism for outputting to determine the line feed position of the parent character and the group ruby multiple groups ruby is set for the parent character, good looking documentation easily It is.

The information processing apparatus 100 and the information processing apparatus 200 can format the stored ruby-added document data and output it to the display of the information processing apparatus or the multifunction peripheral 300.
In the present embodiment, an example in which a ruby-added document is output by the information processing apparatus 100 will be described.

<Description of FIG. 2>
Hereinafter, the hardware configuration of the information processing apparatuses 100 and 200 illustrated in FIG. 1 will be described with reference to FIG. FIG. 2 is a block diagram showing a hardware configuration of the information processing apparatuses 100 and 200 shown in FIG.

In FIG. 2, reference numeral 201 denotes a CPU that comprehensively controls each device and controller connected to the system bus 204. Further, the ROM 202 or the external memory 211 has a BIOS (Basic Input / Output System) or an operating system program (hereinafter referred to as OS), which is a control program of the CPU 201, and functions executed by each server or each PC (information processing apparatus). Various programs and the like to be described later necessary for the realization are stored.

A RAM 203 functions as a main memory, work area, and the like for the CPU 201. The CPU 201 implements various operations by loading a program or the like necessary for execution of processing from the ROM 202 or the external memory 211 into the RAM 203 and executing the loaded program.

An input controller 205 controls input from a keyboard (KB) 209 or a pointing device such as a mouse (not shown). A video controller 206 controls display on a display (display unit) such as a CRT display (CRT) 210. In FIG. 2, although described as CRT 210, the display device is not limited to the CRT, but may be another display device such as a liquid crystal display. These are used by the administrator as needed.

A memory controller 207 is provided in an external storage device (hard disk (HD)), flexible disk (FD), or PCMCIA card slot for storing a boot program, various applications, font data, user files, editing files, various data, and the like.

<Description of FIG. 3>
FIG. 3 is a flowchart showing a first control processing procedure executed by the information processing apparatus 100 in FIG. 1, and is a basic flowchart for explaining the present embodiment.

  The processing from step S301 to step S307 illustrated in FIG. 3 is realized by the CPU 201 executing a program stored in the external memory 211 of the information processing apparatus 100.

  First, when the program is executed, ruby-added document data stored in the external memory 211 is read into the RAM 203, and ruby is attached to the parent character according to the ruby-added document data (step S301). The detailed process in step S301 will be described later with reference to FIG.

  Next, when the character (column) attached with ruby in step S301 is arranged in the character frame, it is determined whether or not a line feed is made by determining whether or not the character (column) exceeds the width of the character frame. (Step S302). If it is determined that the character (column) exceeds the width of the character frame (determined to be a line break), a line feed position candidate determination process is executed (step S303). On the other hand, if it is determined that the character (string) does not exceed the width of the character frame (determined that no line break will occur), the process proceeds to step S305 and all the character strings in the read ruby-added document data are transferred. On the other hand, it is determined whether at least the processing from step S301 to step S302 has been executed (step S305).

  Step S303 is a process for determining the position of the line feed position candidate of the current character string to be processed, and then determining the actual line feed position. The detailed process will be described later with reference to FIG.

  Next, after executing the process of step S303, the line feed process is executed according to the line feed position determined in step S303 (step S304), and the process proceeds to step S305.

  If it is determined in step 305 that at least the processing from step S301 to step S302 has not been executed for all the character strings in the read ruby-added document data (step S305: NO), the next character The column is set as a character string to be processed (step S307), and the process proceeds to step S301.

If processing has been performed for all the character strings in the read ruby-added document data in step S305, the line-breaked and formatted document data data in step S304 is displayed on the display unit such as the CRT 210, or Output processing such as printing on the multifunction machine 300 is executed (step S306).
<Description of FIG. 4>
FIG. 4 is a flowchart showing detailed processing in step S301 of FIG.

  The processing from step S401 to step S404 shown in FIG. 4 is realized by the CPU 201 executing a program stored in the external memory 211 of the information processing apparatus 100.

First, when the program is executed, the CPU 201 of the information processing apparatus 100 reads data illustrated in FIG. 15 stored in the external memory 211 of the information processing apparatus 100.
FIG. 15 is a diagram for explaining an example of data used to output ruby-added document data stored in the external memory 211 of the information processing apparatus 100.
Here, FIG. 15 will be described.

As shown in FIG. 15, character frame information 1501, paragraph information 1502, line division position 1503, text character information 1504, character attribute information 1505, and ruby attribute information 1506 are stored in the external memory 211 of the information processing apparatus 100. Has been.
The character frame information 1501 includes a character frame height, a character frame width, and a character frame arrangement position.

  The paragraph information 1502 includes a paragraph number, character string data arranged in the paragraph identified by the paragraph number, and the height and width of the paragraph identified by the paragraph number.

A line division position (information) 1503 is information indicating a line feed position. Here, the line feed position (line division position) is specified by the number of characters from the beginning of the paragraph of the characters to be line feed.

  The text character information 1504 includes a character code of a character string in the document (text). The character attribute information 1505 includes character attribute information such as a character size (number of points), a font type, a space between characters, and a character to which the character attribute information is applied. It is specified by (start position and end position). The set character attribute information is applied to the characters from the start position to the end position.

  The ruby attribute information 1506 includes a ruby attribute information number, a starting position of the parent character, the number of parent characters, a ruby type, a ruby arrangement position, a ruby character separation position, a ruby character, a ruby division flag, and a parent character division. The position, the ruby character division position, the ruby character spacing, the character size, and the font are respectively configured.

  The ruby attribute information number is information for identifying the set ruby. The starting position of the parent character is information for specifying the parent character to which the ruby attribute information is applied. In this embodiment, the number of characters from the beginning of the paragraph of the parent character to be applied is stored. . The number of characters of the parent character is the number of characters from the start position of the parent character to which ruby attribute information is applied.

  As the type of ruby, information for identifying the type of ruby to be applied is mono ruby, group ruby or idiom ruby. The ruby arrangement position is set so as to be able to identify whether the ruby is attached to the upper side or the ruby attached to the lower side with respect to the parent character. In this embodiment, since the explanation is based on the assumption that the parent character is a horizontal character string, it is set whether the attached ruby is above or below the parent character, but the parent character is a vertical character string. In this case, the right side or the left side may be set for the parent character.

In addition, candidates for ruby division positions (division candidate positions) are stored in the ruby character delimiter positions. The ruby character is a ruby character attached to the parent character.
In addition, the ruby division flag is set so that it can be identified by “0” and “1” whether or not the ruby is divided.

  Further, the division position of the parent character is information indicating where the parent character (column) is divided. In this embodiment, when the first character of the parent character is reached, the next character (string) ) Is set. That is, when divided, the number of front parent characters to be divided is set.

  In addition, the ruby character dividing position is information indicating where the ruby is divided. In this embodiment, when the number of characters from the first character of the ruby starts, the next ruby character (column) is divided. Information on whether to do is set. That is, the number of characters in the front ruby to be divided is set when divided.

  The ruby character spacing indicates the spacing between the output ruby characters. The character size indicates the size (size) of the output ruby. In addition, the type of output ruby font is set as the font.

<Description of FIG. 20>
Here, registration of data stored in the ruby attribute information 1506 in FIG. 15 will be described.
FIG. 20 is a diagram illustrating an example of a screen for registering ruby.

  The ruby registration screen 2000 includes an input field 2001 for inputting a parent character by a user, a radio button 2002 for accepting selection of a ruby type to be set as upper ruby for the parent character input in the input field, and the upper ruby An input field 2003 for inputting a character string to be output as a radio button, a radio button 2004 for accepting selection of a ruby type set as a lower ruby for the parent character input to the input field, and a character string to be output as the lower ruby Input field 2005, registration button 2006, and cancel button 2007.

  Here, the lower ruby is a ruby attached to the parent character and is a ruby output below the parent character. Further, the upper ruby is a ruby attached to the parent character and is a ruby output on the parent character.

  In this example, lower ruby and upper ruby when the parent character is horizontal writing will be described as an example. However, when the parent character is vertical writing, instead of lower ruby and upper ruby, they are called right ruby and left ruby respectively. May be. Here, the right ruby is a ruby attached to the parent character and is a ruby output to the right of the parent character. The left ruby is a ruby attached to the parent character, and is a ruby output to the left of the parent character.

The user inputs the base character for setting the ruby in 2001, selects the type of ruby to be set as the ruby arrangement position (upper ruby / lower ruby), and inputs the ruby in the input field 2003 and / or the input field 205. The When the registration button 2006 is pressed by the user, data input (selected) on the ruby registration screen 2000 is registered.
Next, the description returns to FIG.

  After reading the data shown in FIG. 15, a character string to be processed is set. Specifically, the parent character having a small numerical value is set as the processing target in the “start position of the parent character” of the ruby attribute information 1506. That is, the processing is set from the first character string in the body.

  Then, it is determined whether or not the upper ruby is set at the ruby arrangement position with respect to the set character string to be processed (target character string) (step S401). If the upper ruby is set at the ruby placement position, the “upper ruby ruby placement process” is executed (step S402). Detailed processing in step S402 will be described later with reference to FIG.

  If it is determined in step S401 that the upper ruby is set at the ruby placement position, the process proceeds to step S403, and it is determined whether the lower ruby is set at the ruby placement position (step S403). . If the lower ruby is set at the ruby arrangement position, the “upper ruby arrangement processing” is executed (step S404). Detailed processing in step S402 will be described later with reference to FIG.

  Here, the ruby arrangement processing in step S402 and step S404 is the difference between whether the processing target is upper ruby or lower ruby. In this embodiment, step S402 and step S404 are performed by explaining FIG. I will do it.

<Description of FIG. 5>
FIG. 5 is a flowchart showing detailed processing in steps S402 and S404 in FIG.

  The processing from step S501 to step S504 illustrated in FIG. 5 is realized by the CPU 201 executing a program stored in the external memory 211 of the information processing apparatus 100.

  First, the CPU 201 of the information processing apparatus 100 determines the type of ruby set for the target character string (parent character) that is the current processing target based on the read ruby attribute information (step S501). Specifically, it is determined whether the “ruby type” is set to group ruby, mono ruby, or idiom ruby.

  If it is determined in step S501 that mono ruby is set, the process proceeds to step S502, and mono ruby processing is executed. Detailed processing of the Monorbi processing will be described later with reference to FIG.

  If it is determined in step S501 that the group ruby is set, the process proceeds to step S503 to execute the group ruby process (step S503). Detailed processing of the group ruby processing will be described later with reference to FIG.

  If it is determined in step S501 that idiom ruby is set, the process proceeds to step S504 to execute idiom ruby processing (step S504). Detailed processing of the idiom ruby processing will be described later with reference to FIG.

<Description of FIG. 6>
FIG. 6 is a flowchart showing detailed processing in step S502 of FIG.

  The processing from step S601 to step S606 shown in FIG. 6 is realized by the CPU 201 executing a program stored in the external memory 211 of the information processing apparatus 100.

  First, the CPU 201 of the information processing apparatus 100 calculates a ruby character string length (step S601). Specifically, it is attached to the parent character from the number of ruby characters, ruby character size, font, and ruby character spacing in the ruby attribute information currently set in the character string (parent character) to be processed. Ruby character string length (character string length) is calculated.

  Next, the CPU 201 of the information processing apparatus 100 calculates a parent character string length (step S602). Specifically, the number of parent characters in the ruby attribute information, the ruby type, and the like corresponding to the character string (parent character) to be processed, the character size in the character attribute information 1505 of the parent character in the character attribute information, From the character spacing, font, etc., the length (parent character string length) of the character string (parent character) to be processed is calculated.

  Next, the CPU 201 of the information processing apparatus 100 determines whether or not the ruby character string length calculated in step S601 is longer than the parent character string length calculated in step S602 (step S603). If it is determined that the ruby character string length is longer than the parent character string length (step S603: YES), the ruby character string length is equal to or less than the parent character string length. The character spacing between the preceding and following characters is adjusted (step S604). On the other hand, when it is determined that the parent character string length is equal to or less than the ruby character string length (step S603: NO), the process proceeds to step S605. In step S604, after adjusting the character spacing before and after the parent character so that the ruby character string length is equal to or less than the parent character string length, or determined that the parent character string length is equal to or less than the ruby character string length. If so (step S603: NO), the current character string to be processed is typeset (step S605), and the ruby for the character string to be processed is typeset (step S606). In step S605 and step S606, the parent character and ruby typeset are stored in the ruby attribute information, and the character string to be currently processed and the ruby corresponding to the character string are typeset.

<Explanation of FIG. 7>
FIG. 7 is a flowchart showing detailed processing in step S503 of FIG.

  The processing from step S701 to step 707 shown in FIG. 7 is realized by the CPU 201 executing a program stored in the external memory 211 of the information processing apparatus 100.

  Since step S701, step S702, and step S703 are the same as step S601, step S602, and step S603, respectively, description thereof is omitted here.

  If it is determined in step S703 that the ruby character string length is longer than the parent character string length (step S703: YES), the character string length between the ruby character string and the parent character string length is the same. Is calculated (step S704). On the other hand, if it is determined that the parent character string length is equal to or less than the ruby character string length (step S703: NO), the process proceeds to step S705. In step S705, an interval between ruby character strings having the same ruby character string length and the same parent character string length is calculated.

  Next, after step S704 or step S705 is executed, the process proceeds to step S706. Steps S706 and S707 are the same as steps S605 and S606 shown in FIG.

<Description of FIG. 8>
FIG. 8 is a flowchart showing the detailed processing of step S504 in FIG.

  The processing from step S801 to step 807 shown in FIG. 8 is realized by the CPU 201 executing a program stored in the external memory 211 of the information processing apparatus 100.

  Step S801, Step S802, Step S803, Step S804, Step S805, Step S806, and Step S807 are the same as Step S701, Step S702, Step S703, Step S704, Step S705, Step S706, and Step S707, respectively. Omitted.

<Description of FIG. 9>
FIG. 9 is a flowchart showing the detailed processing of step S303 in FIG.

  The processing from step S901 to step S907 shown in FIG. 9 is realized by the CPU 201 executing a program stored in the external memory 211 of the information processing apparatus 100.

If the CPU 201 of the information processing apparatus 100 determines in step S302 that the current target character string exceeds the width of the character frame (determines that the line breaks), the upper ruby is compared to the current target character string. It is determined whether or not a lower ruby is attached (step S901). Specifically, it is determined whether or not upper ruby and lower ruby are attached to the ruby arrangement position in the ruby attribute information for the current character string to be processed.
Here, when a part of the character string to be processed overlaps with a character string (parent character) of another ruby attribute information number, the character string is also processed.

  More specifically, the ruby attribute information number of the ruby attribute information 1506 is 1, and the parent character to be processed is a character string “observing and enjoying a bird”, and “bird watching” is set as the upper ruby. ing. In addition, “Yacho” is set as the lower ruby for “wild bird” whose ruby attribute information number is 2 and whose ruby attribute information number is 1 and which overlaps the parent character to be processed. Thus, when a part of the character string to be processed overlaps with a character string (parent character) of another ruby attribute information number, the character string is also processed.

  As described above, when the upper ruby and the lower ruby are set for the current character string to be processed (step S901: YES), first, the candidate for the division position of the parent character for which the upper ruby is set is determined. For this purpose (step S902). On the other hand, if neither upper ruby nor lower ruby is set for the current character string to be processed (step S901: NO), a candidate for the division position of the current character string to be processed for which ruby is set is determined. The process (step S905) for performing is performed.

  Then, after executing step S902, a process (step S903) for determining a parent character division position candidate for which lower ruby is set is executed, and then a line division position summarization process (step S904) is performed. .

  After the processing in step S905, a line feed is made at the division position determined in step S905 (step S906). Then, the group ruby division flag is set in the ruby attribute information 1506.

  Here, step S902, step S903, and step S905 are different depending on whether the processing target is an upper ruby, a lower ruby, or a set ruby, and the processing itself does not change.

  Detailed processing in steps S902, S903, and S905 will be described later with reference to FIG.

  Further, the detailed processing in step S904 will be described later with reference to FIG.

<Description of FIG. 10>
FIG. 10 is a flowchart showing detailed processing of steps S902, S903, and S905 of FIG.

  The processing from step S1001 to step S1007 shown in FIG. 10 is realized by the CPU 201 executing a program stored in the external memory 211 of the information processing apparatus 100.

  The CPU 201 of the information processing apparatus 100 calculates and specifies where the line breaks (line break) (also referred to as line end) in the current character string (parent character) to be processed (step S1001).

  Specifically, from the number of characters in the line where the current character string to be processed is placed, its font size (character size), character spacing, output font, etc., each character from the beginning of the line placed in the line Calculate the distance to the character. Then, a line break is specified between the calculated distance to each character that exceeds the paragraph width of the paragraph information 1502 and the character that is placed next to the character and does not exceed the paragraph width. To do.

  Next, it is determined whether a group ruby is attached to the specified “line break”. If it is determined that the group ruby is attached (step S1002: YES), the head of the group ruby is set to the line feed position. Are set as candidates (step S1004). That is, a line feed position candidate (division candidate position) is set between a parent character for which group ruby is set and a parent character for which group ruby is not set.

  On the other hand, when it is determined that the group ruby is not attached to the specified line break (step S1002: NO), it is determined whether the idiom ruby is attached to the line break (step S1003). If it is determined that the idiom ruby is attached (step S1003: YES), the division position of the parent character to which the idiom ruby is set is set as a line feed position candidate (step S1005). In the idiom ruby, since the position of the parent character that can be broken is set in advance, the position where the line break is possible is set as a candidate for the parent line break position. The preset line-breakable position is stored.

  Next, when it is determined in step S1003 that the idiom ruby is not attached (step S1003: NO), a line break is set as a candidate for a new line position of the parent character (step S1006).

Then, the parent character division position candidates set with the ruby set in step S1004, step S1005, and step S1006 are stored in the “ruby character delimiter position” of the ruby attribute information 1506 (step S1007).

In step S902 in FIG. 9, the process shown in FIG. 10 is executed with the upper ruby as a processing target, and in step S903 in FIG. 9, the process shown in FIG. 10 is executed with the lower ruby as a processing target.
Moreover, in step S905 of FIG. 9, the process shown in FIG. 10 is performed for the attached upper ruby or lower ruby as a processing target.

<Description of FIG. 11>
FIG. 11 is a flowchart showing detailed processing in step S904 in FIG.

  The processing from step S1101 to step S1106 shown in FIG. 11 is realized by the CPU 201 executing a program stored in the external memory 211 of the information processing apparatus 100.

  The CPU 201 of the information processing apparatus 100 first determines whether or not the division positions of the parent characters set as the upper ruby and the lower ruby set as candidates in step S1006 and / or step S1005 and / or step S1004 are the same. (Step S1101). Here, it is determined whether the line break and the division position of the upper ruby and lower ruby parent characters are the same.

  If the candidate for the division position is at the same position, the same division position as the candidate is determined and set as the division position (step S1003).

  On the other hand, if it is determined in step S1101 that the line break and the division positions of the upper ruby and the lower ruby set as candidates are different, it is determined whether both the upper ruby and the lower ruby are group ruby ( Step S1102). If it is determined that both the upper ruby and the lower ruby are group ruby, the process proceeds to step S1104, and a process for determining a division position is executed. The detailed process in step S1104 will be described later with reference to FIG.

  If it is determined in step S1002 that both the upper ruby and the lower ruby are not group ruby, splitting is performed from among the parent character division position candidates (division candidate positions) in which the ruby that is not group ruby is set. The position is determined and set (step S1106). The method for determining the division position here will be described with reference to 1802 in FIG. 18 and 1901 and 1902 in FIG.

  Next, after executing the process of step S1104, the process is executed (step S1105). Detailed processing of group ruby division processing will be described later with reference to FIG.

<Description of FIG. 12>
FIG. 12 is a flowchart showing detailed processing in step S1104 of FIG.

  The processing from step S1201 to step S1210 illustrated in FIG. 12 is realized by the CPU 201 executing a program stored in the external memory 211 of the information processing apparatus 100.

  The CPU 201 of the information processing apparatus 100 calculates the distance from the position of the line break to the upper ruby division candidate position as D1 (step S1201). Next, a distance D2 from the line break position to the lower ruby division candidate position is calculated (step S1202). This process will be described with reference to FIG.

  FIG. 17 is a diagram for explaining the distance from the line break position to the division candidate position with respect to the parent character.

  FIG. 17 shows an example in which the parent character “◯ × Δ ● □ ▲ ■ ▽ ○ ▼” is written in the right direction. Here, it is shown that a group ruby is attached as an upper ruby to the parent character of “□ ▲ ■ ▽”. In addition, a group ruby is attached as a lower ruby to the parent character of “Δ ● □ ▲”.

Therefore, the upper ruby division candidate positions are between “●” and “□” and between “▽” and “◯”. The lower ruby division candidate positions are between “×” and “△” and between “▲” and “■”.
FIG. 17 shows that there is a line break position between “▲” and “■”.

In such a case, as shown in FIG. 17, D1 calculated in step S1201 is a distance from the position of the line break to the upper ruby division candidate position, and D2 calculated in step S1202 is As shown in FIG. 17, the distance is from the position of the line break to the lower ruby division candidate position.

  By subtracting the “distance from the first character to the line break position” from the “distance from the first character of the line where the character string to be processed is placed to the division candidate position”, the line break from the line break. The distance to the division candidate position can be calculated.

  It is determined whether D1 calculated in this way is a value smaller than 0 (zero) (step S1203). That is, it is determined whether there is an upper ruby division candidate position from the position of the line break toward the beginning of the line.

  When it is determined in step S1203 that D1 is smaller than 0 (zero) (there is no upper ruby division candidate position from the position of the line break toward the beginning of the line) (step S1203: YES), D2 Whether or not is a value smaller than 0 (zero) is determined (step S1204). That is, it is determined whether there is a lower ruby division candidate position from the position of the line break toward the beginning of the line.

  When it is determined in step S1203 that D1 is 0 (zero) or more (step S1203: NO), it is determined whether D2 is a value smaller than 0 (zero) (D2 is 0 (zero) or more). (Step S1207). If it is determined that D2 is a value smaller than 0 (zero), the division position is determined from among the upper ruby division candidate positions (step S1210).

  Specifically, from the upper ruby division candidate positions, the division candidate position closest to the beginning of the line from the position of the line break is selected, and that position is determined as the division position. If there is an upper ruby division candidate position at the line break, that position is determined as the division position.

  If it is determined in step S1207 that D2 is 0 (zero) or more (step S1207: NO), it is determined whether D2 is longer than D1 (step S1208). If it is determined that D2 is longer than D1 (step S1208: YES), the process proceeds to step S1210, and as described above, the upper ruby division candidate position is determined as the division position.

If it is determined in step S1207 that D2 is a value smaller than 0 (zero) (step S1207: YES), that is, there is no lower ruby division candidate position from the position of the line break toward the beginning of the line. When it is determined, the process proceeds to step S1210, and as described above, the division position is determined from among the upper ruby division candidate positions.
If it is determined in step S1208 that D1 is equal to or longer than D2, the process proceeds to step s1209 to determine the lower ruby division candidate position as the division position.

  Specifically, from the lower ruby division candidate positions, the division candidate position closest to the beginning of the line from the position of the line break is selected, and that position is determined as the division position. If there is a lower ruby division candidate position at the line break, that position is determined as the division position.

  If it is determined in step S1204 that D2 is a value equal to or greater than 0 (zero), that is, there is a lower ruby division candidate position from the position of the line break toward the beginning of the line (step S1204: NO), The processing moves to step S1209.

  Further, when it is determined in step S1204 that D2 is a value smaller than 0 (zero), that is, there is no lower ruby division candidate position from the position of the line break toward the beginning of the line (step S1204: YES). Determines a line break as a division position (step S1205).

  Further, the division position of the parent character determined in steps S1205, S1209, and S1210 and to which ruby is set is stored in the “division position of parent character” of the ruby attribute information 1506 (step 1206). Here, the division position (LG1) of the parent character is stored in the “division position of the parent character” in the ruby attribute information 1506.

<Description of FIG. 13>
FIG. 13 is a flowchart showing detailed processing in step S1105 of FIG.

The processing from step S1301 to step S1307 shown in FIG. 13 is realized by the CPU 201 executing a program stored in the external memory 211 of the information processing apparatus 100.
The CPU 201 of the information processing apparatus 100 first determines whether or not there is a division position (in the middle) in the group ruby character string (step S1301).
Specifically, it is determined whether the ruby division flag in the ruby attribute information 1506 is “1” or “0”.

  If it is determined that there is a division position in the character string of the group ruby (in the middle) (the ruby division flag is “1”) (step S1301: YES), the number of parent characters before the division position (LG1) ) Is acquired from the item “parent character division position” of the ruby attribute information 1506.

  Further, the number of characters (total number of characters) of the parent character to be processed is acquired from the ruby attribute information. Then, the number of parent characters after the division position (LG2) is subtracted from the number of parent characters (total number of characters) by subtracting the number of parent characters on the front side (the number of parent characters before the division position). Is calculated and acquired (step S1302).

Then, the ruby (character) (LR) to be processed (for example, ruby characters such as bird watching) is acquired from the item “ruby characters” of the ruby attribute information 1506 (step S1303).
Next, the number of ruby characters before the division position is obtained by calculating the following equation (step S1304).

(Expression) “Number of ruby characters before dividing position (LR1)” = “number of ruby characters (LR)” × “number of parent characters before dividing position (LG1)” ÷ (number of parent characters before dividing position ( LG1) "+" number of parent characters after the dividing position (LG2) ")

  When the “number of ruby characters before the dividing position (LR1)” calculated using the above-described formula is a value that cannot be expressed as an integer (such as a decimal), for example, the decimal after the decimal point is rounded off. And rounded to an integer (step S1305).

  Then, by subtracting the integer “number of ruby characters before the dividing position (LR1)” calculated in step S1305 from the number of ruby characters acquired in step S1303, the “number of ruby characters after the dividing position” (LR2) "is calculated. Here, the calculated “number of ruby characters after the dividing position (LR2)” is set (step S1306).

Next, the “number of ruby characters before the dividing position (LG1)” set in step S1306 is stored in the “ruby character dividing position” item of the ruby attribute information 1506 (step S1307).
FIG. 16 is a diagram for explaining the division positions of the parent character and ruby.
As shown in FIG. 16, “to observe and enjoy a bird” is a parent character, and “bird watching” is output as a group ruby for this parent character (character string).

  When divided between “wild bird” and “to observe and enjoy”, the parent character is divided into two characters and ten characters. In proportion to this, the group ruby is also divided into 2 characters and 7 characters.

Here, the parent character divided into two characters is represented as LG1, the parent character divided into ten characters is represented as LG2, the group ruby divided into two characters is represented as LR1, and the group ruby divided into seven characters is represented as LR2. ing.

<Description of FIG. 14>
FIG. 14 is a flowchart showing the detailed processing of step S304 of FIG.

  The processing from step S1401 to step S1407 shown in FIG. 14 is realized by the CPU 201 executing a program stored in the external memory 211 of the information processing apparatus 100.

  The CPU 201 of the information processing apparatus 100 first determines whether the “ruby type” of the ruby attribute information 1506 is group ruby and the “ruby division flag” is “1” (step S1401).

If it is determined that the “ruby type” is group ruby and the “ruby split flag” is “1” (step S1401: YES), the ruby character split determined by the process shown in FIG. Divide ruby by position. In this way, the ruby character is divided at the ratio of the number of characters divided from the number of parent characters (step S1406).
Then, the divided ruby is formatted as a group ruby, and the process proceeds to step S1403.

  If it is determined in step S1401 that the “ruby type” is not group ruby or the “ruby division flag” is “0” (step S1401: NO), the “ruby type” is an idiom ruby. In addition, it is determined whether or not the “ruby division flag” is “1” (step S1402). If it is determined that the “ruby type” is an idiom ruby and the “ruby division flag” is “1” (step S1402: YES), the ruby is divided according to the parent character divided at the determined division position. The character is divided (step S1404).

In the case where idiom ruby is set for a character string composed of a plurality of characters, ruby corresponding to each character is stored in association with each other in order to output like mono ruby. Therefore, in step S1404, ruby is also divided at the position of the parent character to be divided.
In this way, the divided ruby is formatted and the process proceeds to step S1403.
In step S1403, the data divided and typeset here is set.

<Description of FIG. 18>
FIG. 18 is a diagram for explaining an example of division (line feed) of a parent character and a plurality of ruby when a plurality of ruby is given to the parent character.

  In FIG. 18, 1801 indicates that the upper ruby group ruby “▲▲▲▲▲▲” is set with respect to the parent character “XX” with the sentence written in the right direction, and a part of the parent character overlaps “XX”. In this example, the lower ruby group ruby “▽▽▽▽▽▽” is set.

  In the case of the example here, these two parent characters are the character strings to be processed “XXXXXX”, and the portion indicated by 1801 indicates a line break. Since the ruby attached to the upper ruby is a group, the division candidate position is indicated by a dotted line between the parent character for which the upper ruby group ruby is set and the character for which the upper ruby group ruby is not set. . Since the lower ruby is also a group ruby, similarly, the division candidate positions are indicated by dotted lines between the parent character for which the lower ruby group ruby is set and the character for which the lower ruby group ruby is not set.

  In the case of a line break 1801, the closest division candidate position from the line break toward the beginning of the line is determined as a division position (line feed position). The division position (line feed position) is indicated by a solid line. Also, when a line feed is made at the dividing position indicated by the solid line, as shown in 1801, the upper ruby group ruby “▲▲▲▲▲▲” is set for the parent character “XXX”, and the lower ruby is set. The group ruby “▽▽” is set. In addition, in the line-breaked portion, the lower ruby “▽▽▽▽” divided with respect to the parent character “◯◯” is set, and the result of these settings is output.

  In addition, if a line break is made at the dividing position indicated by the solid line, a space for one character is created between the line break and the dividing position. In such a case, a space (blank) code should be inserted here. It may be.

  Thus, the number of ruby characters to be divided is determined and divided in proportion to the ratio of the number of divided parent characters.

  Next, in 1802 of FIG. 18, the group ruby “▲▲▲▲▲▲” is set in the upper ruby for the parent character “XXX” with the sentence written in the right direction, and some of the parent characters overlap. In this example, mono-ruby “▽▽▽▽▽▽▽▽▽” is set in the lower ruby “XXX”.

  In the case of the example here, these two parent characters are set as the character string to be processed “XXXXX”, and the portion indicated by 1802 indicates a line break. Since the ruby attached to the upper ruby is a group, the division candidate position is indicated by a dotted line between the parent character for which the upper ruby group ruby is set and the character for which the upper ruby group ruby is not set. . Lower ruby is mono ruby, so it is divided between each character in the parent character (character string) with mono ruby and between the parent character with ruby set and the parent character without ruby set Candidate positions are indicated by dotted lines.

  In the case of the line break 1802, the line break and the division candidate position are at the same position, so the line break is determined as the division position (line feed position). The division position (line feed position) is indicated by a solid line. Also, when a line feed is made at the dividing position indicated by the solid line, as shown in 1802, the group ruby “▲▲▲▲▲” of the upper ruby is compared to the parent character “XXX” (the first three characters of the parent character). ▲ ”is set, and the group ruby“ ▽▽▽▽▽▽▽ ”of lower ruby is added to the parent character“ XXX ”(characters from the second character to the fourth character of the first character of the parent character). Is set. In addition, in the line-breaked portion, the lower ruby “▽▽” divided with respect to the parent character “◯” is set, and the result of these settings is output.

  As described above, when there is mono-ruby in the character string to be processed and the mono-ruby is attached to the line break, the parent character is divided at the line break as indicated by 1802.

  The dividing position of ruby is between ruby set as mono ruby for each character between characters into which the parent character is divided.

<Description of FIG. 19>
FIG. 19 is a diagram for explaining an example of division (line feed) of a parent character and a plurality of ruby when a plurality of ruby is given to the parent character.

  Next, in 1901 of FIG. 19, the group ruby “▲▲▲▲▲▲” is set in the upper ruby for the parent character “XXX” with the sentence written in the right direction, and some of the parent characters overlap. In this example, the jukugo-ruby “▽▽▽▽▽▽▽▽▽” is set in the lower ruby “○○○○”.

  In the case of the example here, these two parent characters are set as the character string to be processed “XXXXX”, and the part indicated by 1901 indicates a line break. Since the ruby attached to the upper ruby is a group ruby, the division candidate position is indicated by a dotted line between the parent character with the upper ruby group ruby and the character without the upper ruby group ruby. Yes.

  Further, since the lower ruby is the idiom ruby, the portion (set) that can be divided as the idiom ruby within the parent character (character string) to which the idiom ruby is attached is indicated by a dotted line. This dotted line location (position) is shown as a division candidate position.

  In the case of a 1901 line break, since the line break and the division candidate position are at the same position, the line break is determined as the division position (line feed position). The division position (line feed position) is indicated by a solid line.

  In addition, when a line feed is made at the dividing position indicated by the solid line, as shown in 1901, the group ruby “▲▲▲▲” of the upper ruby is added to the parent character “OO” (the first two characters of the parent character). The lower ruby idiom “ビ” is set for the parent character “O”. The lower ruby group ruby “▽▽▽▽▽▽▽” is set for the parent character “XXX” (the third to fifth characters of the first character of the parent character). . The upper ruby “▲▲” is set for the parent character “◯” (third character of the first character of the parent character) after the line feed. Such processing is performed and output.

  In this way, when there are group ruby and idiom ruby in the character string to be processed, and idiom ruby is attached to the line break, if the line break is a position that can be divided as idiom ruby, As indicated by 1901, the parent character is divided at the line break.

  The ruby division position at this time will be described. When dividing in the middle of the group ruby character string, the number of ruby characters to be divided is determined and divided in proportion to the ratio of the number of characters of the parent character to be divided.

  Further, the division position of the ruby when divided in the middle of the character string of the idiom ruby is between the ruby set as the idiom ruby for each character between the characters into which the parent character is divided.

  Next, in 1902 of FIG. 19, the idiom Ruby “▲▲▲▲▲▲” is set in the upper ruby for the parent character “XXX” with the sentence written in the right direction, and some of the parent characters overlap. In this example, mono-ruby “▽▽▽▽▽▽▽▽▽” is set in the lower ruby of “○○○○”.

  In the case of the example here, these two parent characters are the character string “XXXXX” to be processed, and the portion indicated by 1902 indicates a line break.

  Since the ruby attached to the upper ruby is the idiom ruby, the portion (set) that can be divided as the idiom ruby within the parent character (character string) to which the idiom ruby is attached is indicated by a dotted line. This dotted line location (position) is shown as a division candidate position. The division candidate positions are indicated by dotted lines.

  Also, since the lower ruby is mono ruby, between each character in the parent character (character string) with mono ruby, between the parent character with ruby set and the parent character without ruby set, The division candidate positions are indicated by dotted lines.

  In the case of the line break 1902, the line break and the division candidate position are at the same position, so the line break is determined as the division position (line feed position). The division position (line feed position) is indicated by a solid line.

  In addition, when a line feed is made at the division position indicated by the solid line, as shown in 1902, the upper ruby group ruby “▲▲▲▲” is displayed for the parent character “OO” (the first two characters of the parent character). The lower ruby idiom “▽▽” is set for the parent character “◯” (the second character of the first character of the parent character). The lower ruby group ruby “▽▽▽▽▽▽▽” is set for the parent character “XXX” (the third to fifth characters of the first character of the parent character). . Also, an upper ruby “▲▲” is set for the parent character “◯” (third character of the first character of the parent character) that has been broken. Such processing is performed and output.

As described above, when there is mono-ruby in the character string to be processed and the mono-ruby is added to the line break, the parent character is divided at the line break as indicated by 1902.
The dividing position of ruby is between ruby set as mono ruby for each character between characters into which the parent character is divided.

As described above, according to this embodiment, it is possible to easily create a good-looking document by determining the division location of a character string (parent character and ruby) in which a plurality of ruby is set for the parent character. Can be output.
