Abstract

PURPOSE:To omit a trouble designating again a print range by storing the proofread page numbers when only the proofread pages are printed after a document is proofread by a word processor. CONSTITUTION:When a print mode is selected on an end screen after the production of a document is through, the screen of a CRT display 11 of a computer main body 10 shows a print parameter designated range to decide whether only the proofread pages are printed 2 or printed 1 with the designation of a range. When the print 2 is selected, the page numbers stored in a page number table are searched and only a designated page number is printed. While all designated pages are printed as conventional when the designation of a range is selected. Then the proofread page numbers are stored in the page number table, and only the proofread pages can be simply printed.

Description

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION [Field of Industrial Application] The present invention relates to a printing method for a word processor, and more particularly to a printing method for a word processor that can print only the pages on which a document has been proofread.

[Conventional technology]

Conventionally, when proofreading a created document, the printing method of this type of word processor is to print using a range specification method in which the printing start page and end page of the document to be printed are specified, as shown in Figure 2 (a). was. For example, when printing proof pages 2 and 5 in a document, set the start page, end page and 62, and print the second page. Next, set 5 to the start page and end page, and print the 5th page.

[Problem to be solved by the invention]

In the conventional word processor printing method described above, when printing any number of non-consecutive pages in a document, the print start page and end page are specified as the same page when printing, and each page is printed. This has the disadvantage that it takes time and effort to print when you want to print only the corrected pages.

[Means to solve the problem]

The word processor printing method of the present invention includes means for storing proof pages of a document and means for printing only the proof pages.

〔Example〕

Next, the present invention will be explained with reference to the drawings.

FIG. 1 is an external view of a word processor that is an embodiment of the present invention. In FIG. 1, the word processor used in this embodiment is comprised of a computer main body 10 including a CRT display 11 and a floppy disk 12, a keyboard 13, and a printer 4.

FIG. 3 shows the overall control flow in one embodiment of the present invention. Referring to FIG. 3, the operation at the time of document creation in this embodiment will be explained. First, after creating a document, when printing is selected on the end screen, the print parameter specification screen appears, and as shown in Figure 2 (b), only the proof page can be printed.
2] or print [1] by specifying the range. When printing only proof pages [2] is selected, the page numbers shown in FIG. 5 and the page numbers stored in the table are searched, and only those pages, for example, pages 2 and 5, are printed. If range specification is selected, all of the specified pages are printed as before.

FIG. 4 shows the page registration control flow in this embodiment. In FIG. 4, when creating a document, that is, inputting characters, this embodiment searches the page number table shown in FIG. 5 and checks whether the current page number is registered.

If it is registered, the character is output as is, and if it is not registered, the page number is stored in the table.

〔Effect of the invention〕

As explained above, in the present invention, when printing only the pages that have been proofread after proofreading a document, the proofreading page number,
By memorizing this, it is possible to eliminate the hassle of having to re-specify the range during printing.

Claims (1)

[Claims] In a word processor having a printing function that allows specifying pages of a created document to be printed, when a created document is proofread, the word processor has a means for storing the proofread pages and a means for printing only the proofread pages. Characteristic word processor printing method.
