Abstract

PURPOSE:To automatically delete the footer text, etc., of a final page by generating and inserting a document to be inserted into a margin into all pages following a specified page at the same positions in order, and inhibiting this special document from being inserted into the final page. CONSTITUTION:A CPU 1 is connected to a ROM 4 and RAM 5 through a bus and a keyboard 3, a CRT 6, a printer 7, and a floppy disk drive device 8 are connected through an interface 2 respectively. In footer text mode, etc., as special mode, the footer text is generated by input from the keyboard 3 and arranged in the footer text buffer of the RAM 5. The footer text is inserted into following pages at the same positions and the final page of the document which is generated and edited is decided to inhibit the footer text from being inserted into the final page. Consequently, when the processing moves to the final page, the footer text can be deleted in footer text mode.

Description

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION Field of the Invention The present invention relates to a document processing device capable of creating a document in a margin outside a normal document creation area.

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION Conventionally, there has been a function commonly referred to as a 7-tutter that inserts a document into the bottom margin. For example, using the 7-tutter function mentioned above, you can select "more", "cont in"
, company name, etc. were inserted in the bottom margin.

When using the 7-tutter function, the mode of the document processing device is changed to a state in which 7-tutter text is created, which is different from the normal document creation for each page, and footer text is created to be inserted in the bottom margin. It is extremely troublesome to create 7-footer text for each page because the same footer text is usually inserted for each page.

Therefore, these days, 7.
An improved document processing device has been proposed so that a document created in a twer text creation state can be inserted.

Problem to be Solved by the Invention However, in the past, the same type of 7-ter text was inserted in the bottom margin at least after a specified page, but in technical reports, impressions, etc., footer text was not inserted on the last page or , often inserting different footer text. Therefore, in a conventional document processing device, the user moves to the last page, changes the mode to the seven-step text creation state, and deletes the inserted footer text, or deletes it and then inserts a new different footer text. have to,
It was very troublesome.

Therefore, the present invention provides a document processing device that can automatically delete the 7-tutter text on the final page by selecting whether or not to insert the created footer text on the final page when creating the 7-tutter text. An object of the present invention is to provide a document processing device that can insert different 7-tutter texts into the final page.

Means for Solving the Problem In a document processing device for creating and editing documents over multiple pages, a special document f' that creates documents in the margins is used.
a storage means for storing the document created and edited by the special document creation means; an insertion means for inserting the document created and edited by the special document creation means into the same location from the next page onward; The present invention includes a determining means for determining the final page of a 1'R-edited document, and a prohibiting means for prohibiting insertion into the final page of a document created by the special document creating means.

A document processing device for creating/editing a document over multiple pages, comprising: special document creation means for creating a document in the margin; determination means for determining the last page of a document created and edited by the special document creation means; and control means for selectively changing the document to be inserted into the margin of the page. - When you create a document to be inserted into the working margin, it can be inserted sequentially in the same place on all pages after the specified page, and for the final page, insertion of special documents is selectively prohibited or selectively inserted. Insertion of different special documents can be easily modified.

Embodiment The present invention relates to a document processing device having a special mote, and one embodiment thereof will be described with reference to the drawings.

FIG. 1 is a block diagram showing a schematic configuration of a word processor and peripheral devices according to the present invention. In this figure, the word processor CPU I connects the ROM4 and ROM4 via the bus.
Connected to RAM5.

Further, a keyboard 3, a display device (CRT) 6, a printer 7, and a floppy disk drive device 8 are connected to the CPUI via an interface 2, respectively.

ε The keyboard 3 includes control keys such as a menu key for selecting a special mode, a mode end key for instructing the end of the special mode, and character keys for inputting characters, numbers, etc. Then, in the RAM 5, the text inputted from each input key of the keyboard 3 and created or edited,
Alternatively, a document buffer 7 that stores the text read from the external storage device 8, a text buffer for each mode that stores the text created by the special document creation means in a special mode, and a page that stores the number of pages of the main text. There is a memory, a text table for each mode, an image buffer, etc. Further, the display device 6 displays the main text and a document constructed from text created in a special mode through an image buffer.

This embodiment has a header text mode in which text is inserted in the top margin and a 7-tutter text mode in which text is inserted in the bottom margin as special modes in which documents can be created. By pressing the menu key on the keyboard 3, the menu screen shown in FIG. 5 is displayed, and by selecting the special mode using the cursor movement key, the special mode is entered in this embodiment. Hereinafter, only the footer text mode will be explained as a special mode.

FIG. 4 is a map diagram showing the memory area of the footer text, which is allocated in the RAM 5. 5 in total
It has 0 pages of main text, and the footer text table 4l is divided into banks 43 for each page.

0 is entered in each bank 43 of pages for which no footer text is defined.

By entering the footer text “Problem Report” on the third page, the footer text “Problem Rep” will be added to the seven-tutter text buffer.
ort" is secured, and the footer text number 44 is set to the value "゛゜■''. Then, "■'゛" is inserted into each bank 43 from the third page onwards.On the 50th and final page, input of 7-tutter text is prohibited, so
“O” is input.

In the normal document creation mode, when the footer area is to be displayed on the screen while scrolling the screen of the display device 6, footer text data is sent from the 7-tutter buffer 44 to the image buffer, and the footer text data is sent along with the main text. 7ter text will appear on the screen.

The specific operation for creating a footer text will be explained using the 7-row chart for creating a footer text executed by the CPU in FIG. 2. To create a 7-tutter text, the operator first displays on the screen of the CRT 6 the page on which he wants to start inserting the 7-tutter, and moves the cursor within the page. Then, when the operator presses the menu key (step Sll), the CPU displays the menu screen shown in FIG.
“Ext” (step S12).
erText” to create a 7-tuter text most in the same way as normal document creation (step S
13). The input footer text is stored in the footer text buffer (step S14).

When the creation of the footer text is completed and the end key is pressed by the operator (step S15 Yes), a number is added to the memorized footer text, and a 7-tutter text is created as shown in FIG. The number is registered in each page in the footer text table 4l after the page entered (step 516).
. (The final page is a diagram in which insertion of a footer is prohibited.) Whether or not there is a footer is checked by comparing the current page number and the total number of pages (step S17).

If the current page number is the total page number (step 7'
S 17 Yes), that is, if the 7-tutter text is created on the final page, “No.
The Last 7 lag is set to O7 (step S18) and the footer text creation routine is ended.

Conversely, if the current page number does not match the total number of pages, that is, if the 7-ter text is created on a page other than the final page (step S17 No.
), rLast Page Footer required Yes/
Display the NoJ message. (Step S19)
. The operator follows this displayed message and
Enter "Y" or "N".The input key is "Y"
(Step S20 Yes), that is, when inserting footer text also on the last page, "No Las
t flag is turned off (step S23), and then,
rLasL Page Footer change Yes/No
The message J is displayed (step S24). The operator inputs "N" or "Y" according to the message as in the previous case. If "N" is input, that is, if the same 7 footer as the footer created on the current page is to be inserted on the final page (step S25 Yes)
, exit this footer text creation routine in this state.

If the key input is "Y" (step S25 No, step S26 Yes), that is, if a footer different from the current page is to be inserted on the final page, the 7-tutter area of the final page will be displayed on the screen in response to the key input. Since the cursor is displayed and moved within the same area, the operator now creates the 7-tutter of the final page (step S27).

When the end key is pressed by the operator (step 32
8 Yes) The footer text created in the y-tutter text buffer is stored with a number added thereto, the number is registered in the last page of the 7-tutter text table (step S29), and the footer text creation routine is ended.

rLast Page Footer requiredYes/No
If the message J is displayed and ``N'' is entered (
Step S20 No, Step S21 Yes), that is, if you do not want to insert 7-ter text on the last page, turn on the "No Last flag" (Step S21).
22) End this footer text creation routine.

However, when a message is displayed in step Sl9 and step S24, even if a value other than 11 Y H or "N" is input, the input operation will not proceed to the next step until "Y IT" or "N" is input. The above is the subroutine for creating 7ter text.

Next, the procedure for displaying a document including footer text will be explained based on the flowchart shown in FIG.

FIG. 3 shows the processing procedure executed by the CPUI,
First, a document corresponding to the screen is copied from the document buffer 7 to the image buffer 7 (step S31). Next, it is checked whether the display screen contains a 7-ter area, that is, whether the last line of the page is included in a part other than the last line on the screen (step S32 No), and in step 531, the image buffer is copied. Display the document on the display device and end the display routine.

On the other hand, if the 7-tuter area is included (step S32 Yes)
), then the footer text table is checked to see if this document has a 7-tutter text (step S33). If no footer text has been created (No in step S33), the document copied to the image buffer is displayed on the display device (step 538), and the display routine ends, as in the case where no footer area is included.

In addition, if footer text has been created (step S33 Yes), then whether or not the footer area included in the display screen is for the last page is determined depending on whether the display page number matches the page number or not. Check (step S34). If the displayed footer area is from the last page (step 534 Yes), “No L
It is checked whether the ist7 lag is turned on (step S35). If the "No List" flag is turned on (step S35, Yes), only the document copied to the image buffer in step S31 is displayed on the display device (step S38), and the display routine is ended.

Then, if the footer area displayed on the display screen is not the 7-tutter area of the final page (step S34 No)
, and when displaying the 7-ter area of the last page, and the "No Last flag is off (step S34 Yes *and step S35 No)"
, obtain the text number of the footer area to be displayed from the footer text table, and obtain the footer text from the footer text buffer (step S36).
. Next, the footer text obtained in step S36 is copied to a predetermined part of the image buffer (step S3
7). Then, the information in the image bar 77 is displayed on the screen of the display device (step 538), and the display routine is ended.

Regarding printing, the operation is almost the same as the display operation, so a detailed explanation thereof will be omitted.

FIG. 7 shows an example of inserting footer text. The footer shown in 7-C shows a technology that can be used using the conventional footer function, and the footer text inserted on any page will be added to the bottom margin (7-tutter area) of all subsequent pages. 62
inserted into.

Therefore, the same 7-tutter text rReport l J as in the other pages is inserted in the last page as well.

In the example shown in 7-a, the footer text inserted on any page of the present invention is inserted in the 7-tutter area 6 of all pages thereafter.
2, but the display and printing of the 7-tutter text on the last page have been automatically deleted. The footer text "r-MORE-1" is inserted on all pages except the last page, but the bottom margin of the last page (7
footer area) does not have footer text inserted.

In the example shown in 7-b, the footer text r-MO R E-J is inserted after any page except the last page, but the footer text r-END- is different only on the last page.
The footer text J has been inserted. This example also uses the present invention, and when creating a footer text for any page, it is possible to create a different footer text to be inserted on the last page at the same time.

Effect of the Invention When the document inserted in the margin of the last page is different from the document inserted in the margin of other pages, or when the document is not inserted in the margin of the last page, the last page is automatically inserted. Since you can easily insert, delete, and change the margins, it is very convenient because it saves you the trouble of going to the last page and deleting or changing the document.

Furthermore, it is possible to prevent careless mistakes such as forgetting to delete or change a document inserted in the final page margin when creating or editing a document.
