Description

  The present invention relates to a document processing apparatus, a document processing method, and a document processing program for generating an electronic document.

  The reference page replacement processing device according to Patent Document 1 is configured to provide a page number of a referenced location when a document in which a symbol that can distinguish a reference location that is a reference source and a referenced location that is a reference destination is input is completed. Is replaced with the reference symbol of the other reference location, and the reference symbol is automatically calibrated to the page number of the referenced location.

JP-A-6-259422

  In the invention according to Patent Document 1, it is necessary for the user to input a reference symbol “A” or the like representing a reference location and a referenced symbol “a” or the like representing a referenced location during text input. When the referenced location is on the page before the currently input sentence, the user inputs the reference symbol “A” to the currently input sentence, and the referenced symbol “a” is displayed on the previous page. ". On the other hand, if the referenced location is on a page after the currently input sentence, the page with the referenced location does not exist yet, and the user cannot input the referenced symbol. For this reason, there is a problem that a page that does not exist cannot be referred to.

  Further, in the invention according to Patent Document 1, the reference location is represented by a symbol, and this symbol is replaced with a page number. Since these symbols and page numbers are character strings, they cannot be returned from the page number to the symbol after the symbol is replaced with the page number. For this reason, there is a problem that the page number cannot be updated when the document is modified after replacement and the number of pages increases or decreases.

  The present invention has been made to solve the above-described problems, and has an object to make it possible to refer to a page that has not been input and to update a page number to be referred to.

  A document processing apparatus according to the present invention refers to a configuration table that represents a configuration of document data, and for each document component in the configuration table, a variable setting unit that sets a variable that has a different value for each document component; Formats the document data in which the variable set by the variable setting section is input as the reference destination, extracts the variable input as the reference destination from the formatting section that generates the formatting data and the formatting data, and extracts it The temporary page setting unit that links the temporary page number to the variable, the page number of the formatted data in which the document data corresponding to the document component of the configuration table is formatted, and the variable set to the document component are linked. For the variable entered as the reference destination in the reference page setting section and the formatted data, the temporary page number linked by the temporary page setting section is the page linked by the reference page setting section. In which and a replacement unit for replacing the item.

  According to the present invention, since the variables set for each document component of the composition table are input as reference destinations in the document data, not only the input page can be referred to but also the uninput page See also In addition, since variable and temporary page number linking and replacement from temporary page number to reference page number are performed separately, even if the document data is modified after replacement and the number of pages increases or decreases, The reference page number can be updated based on.

Embodiment 1 FIG.
FIG. 1 is a block diagram showing a configuration example of a document processing apparatus 1 according to Embodiment 1 of the present invention. The document processing apparatus 1 automatically updates the page number of the reference destination inserted in the reference location when formatting the document data. The document processing apparatus 1 includes a variable setting unit 11, a typesetting unit 12, a temporary page setting unit 13, a reference page setting unit 14, and a replacement unit 15. The document processing apparatus 1 is connected to an input device 2 and a display device 3.

  FIG. 2 is a diagram showing a hardware configuration example of the document processing apparatus 1 according to the first embodiment of the present invention. The document processing apparatus 1 includes a processor 4 and a memory 5. The input device 2, the display device 3, the processor 4, and the memory 5 are connected by a bus or the like and can exchange information.

  The functions of the variable setting unit 11, the typesetting unit 12, the temporary page setting unit 13, the reference page setting unit 14, and the replacement unit 15 in the document processing apparatus 1 are realized by software, hardware, or a combination of software and firmware. Is done. Software or firmware is described as a program and stored in the memory 5. The processor 4 reads out and executes the program stored in the memory 5, thereby realizing the function of each unit. That is, the document processing apparatus 1 includes a memory 5 for storing a program that, when executed by the processor 4, results in the steps shown in the flowchart of FIG. It can also be said that this program causes the computer to execute the procedure or method of the variable setting unit 11, the typesetting unit 12, the temporary page setting unit 13, the reference page setting unit 14, and the replacement unit 15.

Here, the processor 4 is a CPU (Central Processing Unit), a processing device, an arithmetic device, a microprocessor, a microcomputer, or the like.
The memory 5 may be a RAM (Random Access Memory), a ROM (Read Only Memory), an EPROM (Erasable Programmable ROM), or a nonvolatile or volatile semiconductor memory such as a flash memory, a hard disk, a flexible disk, or the like. The magnetic disk may be an optical disk such as a CD (Compact Disc) or a DVD (Digital Versatile Disc).

The input device 2 is a device that allows a user to input information to the document processing device 1 such as a keyboard and a mouse.
The display device 3 is a device that can display information from the document processing device 1 such as a liquid crystal display.

  FIG. 3 is a diagram showing an example of a configuration table of document data according to Embodiment 1 of the present invention. FIG. 4 is a diagram showing an example of document data according to Embodiment 1 of the present invention. Here, an example is shown in which the document data is an instruction manual of an ETC (Electronic Toll Collection System, ETC is a registered trademark, and the registered trademark is omitted in the following description).

  The document processing device 1 has a so-called text editor function, and causes the display device 3 to display a configuration table and a screen for inputting document data. Further, the document processing apparatus 1 creates a configuration table and document data based on the character information input to the input device 2 by the user, and displays the created result on the input screen. The created configuration table is input to the variable setting unit 11, and the document data is input to the typesetting unit 12. The function of the text editor may be provided in the document processing apparatus 1 or an external device other than the document processing apparatus 1. When the external apparatus has a text editor function, the document processing apparatus 1 acquires a configuration table and document data created by the external apparatus from the external apparatus. In the following, description regarding the function of the text editor is omitted.

  As shown in FIG. 3, the configuration table represents the configuration of document data serving as an instruction manual, and is data in which each document component constituting the document data is arranged. One document component is at least one paragraph. One paragraph is a part from a line break of a character string to a line before the next line break, and has a title name such as “ETC 2.0” (ETC 2.0 is a registered trademark, and the registered trademark is omitted below). There may be one or more sentences such as “ETC 2.0 can use various functions”.

  Before creating the document data, the user inputs document components representing the configuration of the document data to the input device 2 and creates a configuration table as shown in FIG. Although details will be described later, a variable ID “Δn” (n is a natural number) is set by the variable setting unit 11 for each document component of the configuration table. The variable ID is a variable having a different value n for each document component.

  As shown in FIG. 4, for example, title data such as “ETC2.0” and “What is ETC2.0 service” and various functions can be used for ETC2.0. " The document data corresponding to the document component “ETC2.0” in the configuration table is the title name “ETC2.0”. In addition, the document data corresponding to the document component “What is the ETC 2.0 service” in the composition table is the title name “What is the ETC 2.0 service” and the text “ETC 2.0 is available for various functions. It can be. "

  The user inputs document data to the input device 2 according to the configuration table, and creates document data as shown in FIG. However, in the example of FIG. 4, document data corresponding to the texts of the title name “Details of ETC service” and the title name “About ETC service information” has not yet been created. When inputting the page number of the reference destination in the document data of the reference source, the user inputs the variable ID set in the document component of the configuration table as the reference destination. For example, the document data “A service that can provide information and make payments using a dedicated narrow communication system. A wide range of services will be provided in the future. For details, see“ Details of ETC Service ”( Please refer to P △ 0004). "Δ0004" is a variable ID input as a reference destination. “P” means a page. This document data is a reference source for referring to “details of ETC service” scheduled to be formatted on the page of PΔ0004. Since the user only has to input the variable ID set in the document component of the composition table, instead of inputting the page number of the reference destination, the page to which the unentered document data is to be formatted is set as the reference destination. You can enter.

  FIG. 5 is a flowchart showing an operation example of the document processing apparatus 1 according to the first embodiment of the present invention. FIG. 6 is a diagram for explaining processing of the temporary page setting unit 13 of the document processing apparatus 1 according to Embodiment 1 of the present invention. FIG. 7 is a view for explaining processing of the reference page setting unit 14 of the document processing apparatus 1 according to Embodiment 1 of the present invention. FIG. 8 is a diagram for explaining the processing of the replacement unit 15 of the document processing apparatus 1 according to the first embodiment of the present invention.

  In step ST11, the variable setting unit 11 refers to the configuration table created by the document processing apparatus 1, and sets a variable ID that has a different value for each document configuration element for each document configuration element in the configuration table. In the example of FIG. 3, the variable setting unit 11 sets the variable ID “Δ0001” in “ETC2.0” of the configuration table and sets the variable ID “Δ0002” in “What is the ETC2.0 service”? The variable setting unit 11 outputs the configuration table in which the variable ID is set to the typesetting unit 12.

  The formatter 12, the temporary page setting unit 13, and the reference page setting unit 14 repeat the processes of steps ST12 to ST14 for each variable ID in the configuration table.

  In step ST <b> 12, the typesetting unit 12 receives the document data created by the document processing apparatus 1. In this document data, the variable ID set by the variable setting unit 11 is input as a reference destination. The composition unit 12 composes the document data and generates composition data. The typesetting unit 12 outputs the generated typesetting data and the configuration table in which the variable ID is set to the temporary page setting unit 13 and the reference page setting unit 14.

In FIG. 6, the solid line shows the outline of the page. A broken line indicates a layout frame for document data arrangement set in the page. “-P15-” arranged on the lower side of the layout frame is the page number of this page. In the example of FIG. 6, the composition unit 12 includes a title name “Outline of ETC2.0 Service” and text “Dedicated Narrow Area (Kyoto)” which are document data corresponding to the variable ID “Δ0003” in a 15-page layout frame. Iki) A service that can provide information, settle charges, etc. using a communication method.There are plans to provide a wide range of services in the future.Please see “Details of ETC Service” (P △ 0004) for details. "And a page number" -P15- "is allocated.
In the example of FIG. 7, the composition unit 12 arranges the title name “Details of ETC service”, which is document data corresponding to the variable ID “Δ0004”, in the layout frame of 75 pages, and “-P75- Is assigned a page number. Since the text of “Details of ETC service” has not yet been created, it is not arranged on the page.

  In step ST13, the temporary page setting unit 13 extracts a variable ID input as a reference destination from the formatted data, and associates a temporary page number with the extracted variable ID. The provisional page setting unit 13 outputs correspondence data A indicating the correspondence between the variable ID and the provisional page number to the replacement unit 15.

  In FIG. 6, the variable ID “Δ0004” input as the reference destination exists on page 15 of the typesetting data. The temporary page setting unit 13 extracts the variable ID “Δ0004”, associates the variable ID “Δ0004” with the temporary page number “0000”, and sets the corresponding data A. The temporary page number is not limited to “0000” and may be any value that is not used for the page number.

  In step ST14, the reference page setting unit 14 refers to the configuration table in which the variable ID is set, and sets the page number of the formatted data in which the document data corresponding to the document configuration element of the configuration table is formatted, and the document configuration element. Is associated with the variable ID set. The page number of the formatted data obtained by formatting the document data corresponding to the document component of the composition table is referred to as “reference destination page number”. The reference page setting unit 14 outputs correspondence data B indicating the correspondence between the variable ID and the reference page number to the replacement unit 15.

  In FIG. 7, on page 75 of the formatted data, the document data “Details of ETC service” corresponding to the document component of the variable ID “Δ0004” is formatted. The reference destination page setting unit 14 extracts the page number “75” in which the document data corresponding to the document component of the variable ID “Δ0004” is formatted as the reference destination page number, and refers to the variable ID “Δ0004”. The previous page number “75” is associated with the corresponding data B.

  In step ST15, the reference page setting unit 14 checks whether or not the processing in steps ST12 to ST14 has been completed for all the variable IDs in the configuration table. When the processing is completed for all the variable IDs (step ST15 “YES”), the reference page setting unit 14 proceeds to step ST16, and when a variable ID that has not been processed remains (step ST15 “NO”). ), The process returns to step ST12.

  Subsequently, the replacement unit 15 repeats the process of step ST16 for each temporary page number of the corresponding data A.

  In step ST <b> 16, the replacement unit 15 associates the temporary page number associated by the temporary page setting unit 13 with the reference page setting unit 14 for the variable ID input as the reference destination in the formatted data. Replace with the reference page number.

  In FIG. 8, the replacement unit 15 refers to the correspondence data B that indicates the correspondence between the variable ID and the reference page number, and the variable ID “Δ0004” in the correspondence data A that indicates the correspondence between the variable ID and the temporary page number. ”Is replaced with the reference page number“ 75 ”of the same variable ID“ Δ0004 ”. The correspondence data A1 is obtained by replacing the temporary page number of the correspondence data A with the reference page number. Thus, when the formatted data after replacement is displayed on the display device 3, the reference page number “75” of the corresponding data A1 is displayed on the display screen instead of the variable ID “Δ0004”. Further, when the formatted data after replacement is printed, the reference page number “75” of the corresponding data A1 is printed on the page, not the variable ID “Δ0004”. On the other hand, in the formatted data after replacement, both the variable ID “Δ0004” and the reference page number “75” are linked. By describing the typesetting data in a markup language or the like, both the variable ID “Δ0004” and the reference page number “75” can exist in the typesetting data on the display screen or on the paper surface. The reference page number “75” after replacement is displayed or printed above.

  In step ST <b> 17, the replacement unit 15 confirms whether or not the processing has been completed for all the temporary page numbers of the correspondence data A. When the processing is completed for all temporary page numbers (step ST17 “YES”), the replacement unit 15 ends the operation shown in the flowchart of FIG. If so (step ST17 “NO”), the process returns to step ST16.

  In the first embodiment, an example is described in which the title name is used as the document component of the configuration table and the variable ID “Δn” is set for each title name as shown in FIG. The name is not limited. For example, each document data in FIG. 4 can be used as each document component. In this case, the variable setting unit 11 sets variable IDs “Δn” and “▲ m” (m is a natural number) for each document data. The temporary page setting unit 13, the reference page setting unit 14, and the replacement unit 15 may process the variable ID “▲ m” in the same manner as the variable ID “Δn”, that is, for the variable ID “▲ m”. The temporary page number and the reference page number are linked, and the temporary page number is replaced with the reference page number.

  Next, an example in which the reference page number is updated when the document data is corrected after the formatting is described. First, (1) when the number of pages of formatted data increases due to the addition of some document data, then (2) the number of pages of formatted data increases due to the deletion of some document data. The case where it decreases is explained.

(1) When the number of pages of formatted data increases due to the addition of a part of document data FIGS. 9A and 9B show the typesetting of the part of the document data added in the first embodiment of the present invention. It is a figure explaining the reference page update process when the page number of data increases. FIG. 9A is a diagram showing an example in which a document component “about the difference between ETC and ETC 2.0” is added to the configuration table shown in FIG. 3. The document processing apparatus 1 executes the operation shown in the flowchart of FIG. 5 using the configuration table shown in FIG. 9A and the document data corresponding to the configuration table.

  At this time, in step ST11, the variable setting unit 11 sets a variable ID “Δ0010” of a new value for the added document component “difference between ETC and ETC 2.0”. In step ST12, the typesetting unit 12 sets the updated document data as typesetting data. Since the document data with the variable ID “Δ0010” is added to the original document data, the number of pages of the formatted data increases from before the addition. In step ST <b> 13, if the document data to which the newly set variable ID “Δ0010” is input as a reference destination exists in the formatted data, the temporary page setting unit 13 performs the process for the variable ID “Δ0010”. To associate the temporary page number “0000”. FIG. 9B is a diagram showing the correspondence data A indicating the correspondence between the variable ID and the temporary page number. The temporary page setting unit 13 may directly use the reference page numbers “75” and “90” associated with the previous time as the temporary page numbers of variable IDs other than the variable ID “Δ0010” or “0000”. May be reset. The processing after step ST14 is as described above. Accordingly, the temporary page numbers “75”, “90”, and “0000” associated with the variable IDs “Δ0004”, “Δ0005”, and “Δ0010” are based on the updated typesetting data. Replaced with a new reference page number. Thereby, even when the document data is corrected and the number of pages increases, the page number of the reference destination can be updated.

(2) When the number of pages of the formatted data is reduced due to the deletion of some document data FIGS. 10A and 10B show the formatting according to the deletion of some document data in Embodiment 1 of the present invention. It is a figure explaining the reference destination page update process when the number of pages of data decreases. FIG. 10A is a diagram illustrating an example in which the document component “details of ETC service” is deleted from the configuration table illustrated in FIG. 3. The document processing apparatus 1 executes the operation shown in the flowchart of FIG. 5 using the configuration table shown in FIG. 10A and the document data corresponding to the configuration table.

  At this time, in step ST11, the variable setting unit 11 does not delete the variable ID “Δ0004” set in the deleted document component “Details of ETC service” but leaves it. That is, the variable ID set for the deleted document component will not be set for the document component in the future and will be missing. In step ST12, the typesetting unit 12 sets the updated document data as typesetting data. In step ST13, the temporary page setting unit 13 skips the process of step ST13 because there is a temporary page number associated with all the variable IDs in the configuration table, that is, the corresponding data A1 in FIG. 8 exists. . Alternatively, the temporary page setting unit 13 may reset the temporary page number “0000” for all the variable IDs in the configuration table. In step ST14, the reference page setting unit 14 refers to the updated typesetting data, associates the reference page number corresponding to the variable ID, and creates corresponding data B. FIG. 10B is a diagram showing the correspondence data B indicating the correspondence between the variable ID and the reference page number. Since there is no page in which the document data corresponding to the document component of the variable ID “Δ0004” is formatted in the updated formatted data, the reference page number is updated from “75” in FIG. 7 to “0000”. Is done. In step ST16, the replacement unit 15 refers to the correspondence data B indicating the correspondence between the variable ID and the reference page number, and refers to the temporary page number in the correspondence data A indicating the correspondence between the variable ID and the temporary page number. Replaced with the previous page number to obtain corresponding data A1. When the formatted data after replacement is displayed on the display device 3, “0000” updated from the previous “75” is displayed on the display screen at the position of the variable ID “Δ0004” input as the reference destination. Is done. The page number “0000” is a temporary page number that is not used as a page number, and indicates that there is no reference page number, that is, a reference error has occurred. Therefore, the replacement unit 15 may replace the previous “75” with a character string that informs the user of a reference error, such as “reference destination error”, and display the screen. Thereby, even when the document data is modified and the number of pages is reduced, the page number of the reference destination can be updated.

Further, since the variable ID “Δ0004” of the deleted document component is a missing number, when new document data is added in the future, the variable ID for the document component newly added to the configuration table will be described. “Δ0004” is never set.
On the other hand, when the variable ID “Δ0004” is not omitted and the variable ID “Δ0004” is set for the document component newly added to the configuration table, the variable ID of the reference destination is included in the document data. As a result, the variable ID “Δ0004” of the deleted document component and the variable ID “Δ0004” of the newly added document component are mixed, resulting in a reference error. In order to prevent this reference error, the variable setting unit 11 of the first embodiment makes the variable ID of the deleted document constituent element a missing number. Thereby, the document processing apparatus 1 according to the first embodiment can update the page number of the reference destination any number of times even when the document data is modified and the number of pages is increased or decreased.

  Next, a usage example of the document processing apparatus 1 according to the first embodiment will be described. In this usage example, the document processing apparatus 1 is used to create a plurality of similar documents from one document, and the page numbers of reference destinations of the plurality of documents are also changed. Below, the case where four instruction manuals are created for four models # 1 to # 4 having different functions of the ETC device will be described.

  FIG. 11 is a diagram of an example of information in which whether or not to format for each document component of the configuration table is specified for the model # 1 to # 4 of the ETC device. The user operates the input device 2 to set “◯” for the document component to be formatted. Here, the document processing apparatus 1 uses a configuration table of document components set with variable IDs “Δn” and “▲ m” as shown in FIG. 11, but the variables as shown in FIG. A configuration table of document components in which “Δn” is set may be used.

  The formatter 12 selects and formats the document data corresponding to the document component for which “◯” is set in the model # 1 column of FIG. 11, and generates the formatted data. This typesetting data is an instruction manual for model # 1. The temporary page setting unit 13, the reference page setting unit 14, and the replacement unit 15 are formatted with the variable ID “Δ0004” input as the reference destination in the document data “▲ 0003” and the variable ID “Δ0004”. Replace with the reference page number.

  Also, the typesetting unit 12 selects and formats the document data corresponding to the document component for which “◯” is set in the model # 2 column of FIG. 11, and generates the typesetting data. This typesetting data is an instruction manual for model # 2. The temporary page setting unit 13, the reference page setting unit 14, and the replacement unit 15 are formatted with the variable ID “Δ0005” input as the reference destination in the document data “▲ 0004” and the variable ID “Δ0005”. Replace with the reference page number.

  The document processing apparatus 1 creates instruction manuals for the models # 3 and # 4 as well as the models # 1 and # 2. In this way, the document processing apparatus 1 can create four documents from one document shown in FIG. Further, the document processing apparatus 1 can automatically update the reference page numbers of these four documents. Therefore, the user does not need to correct the same sentence many times in order to create four documents. Further, the reference page number is updated without being affected by the difference between the four documents, so there is no reference mistake. On the other hand, conventionally, even for similar documents, since the user has to correct the reference page number as a separate item each time, the work amount of the user is large and a reference error is likely to occur.

  As described above, the document processing apparatus 1 according to the first embodiment includes the variable setting unit 11, the typesetting unit 12, the temporary page setting unit 13, the reference page setting unit 14, and the replacement unit 15. The variable setting unit 11 refers to a configuration table that represents the configuration of document data, and sets a variable ID that has a different value for each document component in each document component in the configuration table. The formatter 12 formats the document data in which the variable ID set by the variable setting unit 11 is input as a reference destination, and generates formatted data. The temporary page setting unit 13 extracts a variable ID input as a reference destination from the formatted data, and associates a temporary page number with the extracted variable ID. The reference destination page setting unit 14 associates the reference page number of the formatted data obtained by formatting the document data corresponding to the document component of the composition table with the variable ID set in the document component. The replacement unit 15 uses the temporary page number linked by the temporary page setting unit 13 and the reference page number linked by the reference page setting unit 14 for the variable ID input as the reference destination in the formatted data. Replace with Since the variable ID set for each document component in the composition table is input as the reference destination in the document data, not only the already-input page can be referred to but also the non-input page can be referred to. In addition, since the variable ID and the temporary page number are associated with each other and the replacement from the temporary page number to the reference page number is performed separately, even if the document data is modified after the replacement and the number of pages is increased or decreased, The reference page number can be updated based on the variable ID.

  In addition, when the document configuration element is deleted from the configuration table, the variable setting unit 11 according to the first embodiment sets the variable ID set to the deleted document configuration element as a missing number. Thereby, it is possible to prevent the variable ID of the deleted document component and the variable ID of the newly added document component from having the same value, and as a result, it is possible to prevent a reference error.

  In addition, the formatting unit 12 according to the first embodiment refers to information specified as to whether or not to format for each document component in the configuration table, and selects document data corresponding to the document component specified to be formatted. And typeset. Thereby, a plurality of similar documents can be created from one document, and the page number of the reference destination can be changed for each document. Therefore, the document processing apparatus 1 is useful when creating a plurality of instruction manuals for a plurality of models of one product.

  The check sheet generating unit 20 links the reference source page in which the variable ID input as the reference destination is formatted from the formatting data generated by the formatting unit 12 and the variable ID by the reference destination page setting unit 14. A check sheet is generated in which pages with reference page numbers attached are arranged. In addition, the check sheet generation unit 20 emphasizes the position of the variable ID input as the reference destination on the page that is the reference source of the check sheet. The check sheet generation unit 20 displays the generated check sheet on the display device 3.

  FIG. 13 is a diagram for explaining processing of the check sheet generating unit 20 of the document processing apparatus 1 according to Embodiment 2 of the present invention. The check sheet generation unit 20 receives from the replacement unit 15 the composition data generated by the composition unit 12 and the correspondence data between the variable ID generated by the replacement unit 15 and the reference page number. The check sheet generation unit 20 uses these data to indicate the variable ID input as the reference destination, the page number of the reference source in which this variable ID is formatted, and the position of this variable ID on the reference source page. The coordinates and the reference page number associated with the variable ID are obtained, and a check sheet table as shown in FIG. 13 is created. In FIG. 13, among the reference source coordinates “148, 210, 68.9, 40.4” of the variable ID “Δ001”, “148” is the width of the page that is the X axis, and “210” is the Y axis. The height of the page, “68.9” is the X coordinate of the variable ID, and “40.4” is the Y coordinate of the variable ID. In the second embodiment, the page number “000” is a temporary page number that is not used as a page number. Therefore, when the reference page number of the check sheet table is “000”, there is no reference page and a reference error occurs.

  FIG. 14 is a diagram showing an example of a check sheet generated by the check sheet generating unit 20 of the document processing apparatus 1 according to Embodiment 3 of the present invention. The check sheet generation unit 20 generates a check sheet as shown in FIG. 14 based on the check sheet table of FIG. The check sheet includes a reference source page 201, a reference destination page 202, and a check column 203. The reference source page 201 is a page corresponding to the “reference source page number” in the check sheet table of FIG. The reference page 202 is a page corresponding to the “reference page number” in the check sheet table of FIG. “Variable ID”, “reference source”, and “reference destination” in the check column 203 are “variable ID”, “reference source page number”, and “reference destination page number” in the check sheet table of FIG. The “determination” in the check column 203 is a column for displaying a determination result of the correspondence between the reference destination and the reference source, which is input from the input device 2 by the user. The check sheet generation unit 20 controls the display device 3 to display “OK” when the correspondence between the reference destination and the reference source is correct, and display “NG” when the correspondence is incorrect. The check sheet generation unit 20 may automatically determine “NG” when the reference destination is “000”.

  In the check sheet of FIG. 14, the reference source page 201 and the reference destination page 202 are displayed for the variable ID “Δ002” in the second row of the check column 203 being determined by the user. The reference destination page number 211 of the reference source page 201 is the reference destination page number “15” associated with the variable ID “Δ001”, and the reference destination page number 212 is the reference destination page associated with the variable ID “Δ002”. The number is “75”. Further, the check sheet generating unit 20 emphasizes the position of the reference page number 212 corresponding to the variable ID “Δ002” being determined by the user with an arrow 213 or the like. The emphasis method is not limited to the display of the arrow 213. The display position of the arrow 213 is based on the reference source coordinates.

  As described above, the document processing apparatus 1 according to the second embodiment includes the check sheet generation unit 20. The check sheet generation unit 20 includes a reference source page in which the variable ID input as a reference destination is formatted from the formatted data, and a reference page number associated with the variable ID by the reference destination page setting unit 14. Generate a check sheet that aligns the pages. Since the reference source and the reference destination are linked to the variable ID, the information necessary for judging the reference error such as the correspondence between the reference source page number and the reference destination page number can be easily extracted, and the check sheet is automatically Can be generated.

  In addition, the check sheet generation unit 20 according to the second embodiment is configured to emphasize the position of the variable ID input as the reference destination on the reference source page of the check sheet. Accordingly, in the check sheet in which the reference source page and the reference destination page are arranged, it is possible to present to the user where the reference destination page number corresponding to the reference destination page is located on the reference source page.

  In the present invention, within the scope of the invention, any combination of each embodiment, any component of each embodiment can be modified, or any component of each embodiment can be omitted.

  In the first and second embodiments, the document processing apparatus for Japanese has been described. However, the language targeted by the document processing apparatus is not limited to Japanese, and may be English, Chinese, or the like. Also good.
