Abstract

PURPOSE:To improve work efficiency in picture inputting and editing work by executing the picture inputting and editing work only the watching a display means. CONSTITUTION:First, an original 1 is read by a picture reader 6, the original 1 is stored through a picture reader interface 7 into a word processor 2, next, the original is called on an original screen 8, and a scroll width is set with a mark 10 by considering the number of characters, a line width, etc. Next, other originals are successively inputted in the same format as that of the original 1 based on the original displayed on the original screen 8. Since the original displayed on the screen also scrolls according to the set scroll width when the original is inputted and a new line is started, the input original is always displayed on the original screen 8, and original inputting work can be successively executed only by watching the original screen 8 without watching to original itself in the outside of a display screen 4. Thus, the work efficiency in the picture inputting and editing work can be heightened.

Description

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION Field of the Invention The present invention relates to an image creation device for creating images of documents and documents.

2. Description of the Related Art Conventionally, this type of device has been used for inputting data based on a document 1, except when an optical character recognition device is used to recognize the characters of a document and then input the text, as shown in FIG.
It is common for the worker 3 to press the keyboard 6 while looking at the document 1 located in a place other than the display screen 4, and to perform input editing work while checking the input content on the display screen 4. It is.

Problems to be Solved by the Invention However, with this configuration, the operator cannot perform operations such as looking at the manuscript on the third page, inputting it on the keyboard, checking it on the display screen, and searching for the next part of the manuscript to input. In order to repeat this process, the user had to alternately shift his/her line of sight between the document and the display screen, reducing work efficiency.

The present invention 1d has been made in view of the above-mentioned problems, and it is an object of the present invention to provide an image creation device that can perform input and editing work without moving the line of sight between a document and a display screen.

Means for Solving the Problems In order to solve the above-mentioned problems, the present invention uses an image reading means to read and read a manuscript, stores it in a storage means, retrieves the manuscript from said storage means, and displays it on a display means. The document is scrolled as the created image moves on the display screen.

Effect of the Invention With the above-described configuration, the present invention allows inputting and editing work to be performed only by looking at the display means, thereby increasing the work efficiency of image inputting and editing work.

Example An embodiment of the present invention will be described below with reference to the drawings.

Figure M1 is a schematic perspective view showing the state of input editing work.
FIG. 2 is a plan view showing the display screen during input editing work. In these figures, 6 is an image reading device, 7 is an image reading device, and 7 is an image reading device.
8 is the image reading device interface, 8 is the manuscript screen that displays the manuscript input by the image reading device, 9 is the input editing screen that displays the input image, and 10 is the manuscript screen that appears with one line break on the input editing screen. is a mark indicating the scroll width, and the length in the vertical direction is the scroll width.

It should be noted that parts with the same numbers as those in the conventional example use the same members as in the conventional example.

The actual input editing work will be explained below.

First, the document 1 is read by the image reading device 6, and the document 1 is stored in the word processor 2 via the image reading device interface 7. Next, use the keyboard 6 to
As shown in the figure, the input manuscript is called up on the manuscript screen 8, and the scroll width is set at mark 1o, taking into consideration five vanes, such as a width of two lines of characters. Next, based on the manuscript displayed on the manuscript screen 8, input is sequentially performed in the same format as the manuscript 1. When a line break is made after input, the manuscript displayed on the screen also scrolls according to the set scroll width, so the manuscript to be input is always displayed on the manuscript screen 8, and the manuscript itself is displayed on the display screen. The input work can be performed sequentially by simply looking at the manuscript screen 8 without looking outside the screen 4. After completing the input work, if you are not satisfied with the same format as manuscript 1, you can convert all documents to the format desired by operator 3.

Furthermore, if the 10 characters of the read original are too small or large, the input image can be enlarged or reduced to an arbitrary size and displayed on the display screen 4.

In this embodiment, the image reading device 6 is provided separately from the word processor 2, but it is also possible to integrate the image reading device 6 with the word processor 2. If the image reading device 6 is integrated with the word processor 2, input editing work can be performed in a much smaller space.

Furthermore, in the above embodiment, input and editing work is performed based on the manuscript displayed on the display screen 4, but for documents that have already been printed in type, an optical character recognition device is used to read and edit them. The work efficiency can be further improved by inputting the written original as a character code, displaying it together with the original on the display screen 4 as in the above-described embodiment, and making corrections based on the original.

Hereinafter, an example will be described using FIG. 3.

Under the control of the CPU 11, the image reading device 6 reads the original 1 and stores it in the storage means 13Fc either via the CPU 11 or directly. The manuscript stored in the CP Toro is called up and sent to the character recognition device 12, which is converted into a word processor 20 character code and stored in the storage means 13. Next, using the keyboard 6, display the memorized original and the data converted into character codes on the display 1.
4, the upper half of the display screen 4 displays the original, and the lower half displays the text created via the character recognition device 12, as shown in FIG. 2, and while comparing the original and the created text, Scroll through and make corrections one by one.

At this time, when setting the scroll width of the original, if the number of characters in one line of the original matches the number of characters in one converted line, it is sufficient to scroll the original at the same time as the converted characters scroll, and the number of characters in one line of the original matches. If not, just count the number of characters the cursor has moved on the screen of the converted text, and scroll the manuscript screen by the same number of characters.

Effects of the Invention As is clear from the above description, the present invention reads a manuscript using an image reading means, stores it in a storage means, retrieves the manuscript from said storage means and displays it on a display means, and displays a created image on a display screen. By scrolling the document as it moves, input editing work can be performed by looking only at the display means, which has the effect of increasing the work efficiency of image input editing work.
