Description

[Detailed Description of the Invention] [Summary] Regarding the shading processing method for reduced subscripts in a document processing device, different Batashi shading is specified for superscripts and superscripts located at the same column position in sentences on the same line. The purpose is to provide a shading processing method for reduced subscripts that can be printed as data separation means for generating two separated data, ie, superscript data and superscript data including a shading control code; It is equipped with a hatching data creation means and an output data editing means for forming print data based on the hatching data and two separated data, and is capable of shading a reduced subscript of one line with respect to the upper and lower subscripts. Configure it so that it can be specified and printed independently.

[Industrial Application Field] The present invention relates to a method for processing reduced suffixes in a document processing device.

In recent years, document processing bags M, (word processors) have become widely popular due to their ease of document creation and management, ease of handling, and streamlining of office work.

In such word processors, in the text you input,
Screen display and printing are performed using numbers and symbols as superscripts and superscripts as reduced (1/4) subscripts.

In addition, in conventional word processors, a method of emphasizing specific characters, figures, etc. by halftone printing is commonly performed, and the halftone pattern can be selected from among a plurality of types.

Conventionally, when printing a single line of text that includes both superscripts and reduced subscripts (hereinafter simply referred to as subscripts), it has not been possible to shade the superscripts and superscripts. However, it has not been possible to print different hatching patterns for the superscripts and the superscripts at the same digit position, so an improvement is desired.

[Conventional technology] FIG. 5 is an explanatory diagram of a conventional example.

It is assumed that one line of text as shown in the screen display example of FIG. 5A is input and displayed on the screen.

This text includes various control codes shown in C1 in addition to characters.

In other words, after the full-width character rOJ of ■, the control code (symbol) of ■ indicates the start of a superscript, the pattern consisting of the control code of ■ indicates the start of shading, and the symbol ■ indicates the content of the superscript "2". , followed by ■ indicates the end of the superscript, and ■ indicates the end of the shading.

Then, ■, ■ is the double-byte character "・X", ■ is the start of a superscript, and [phase] is a different pattern (different from the pattern of ■)
The start of shading is specified by , and the superscript content "3" is specified by ■.
is specified, ■ ends the superscript, ■ marks the character "・", [phase] starts shading of another pattern, and ■ marks the full-width character rl.
Indicate J, 0.0 represents superscript "45", 0 is superscript, 0 is a different pattern from [phase] (same pattern as ■)
At the start of shading, [phase] represents the superscript character "CD",
■ and 0 represent the superscript and the end of shading, respectively.

When printing such text, conventional word processors use the following two methods, depending on the model.

(11 The shading specified for the upper and lower subscripts is invalid, and only the shading specified for full-width characters is valid.

(2) Only the upper or lower subscript can be printed, and only the upper or lower subscript and a tie to it can be printed at the same digit position.

Figure 5B shows an example of the printing result of +11 above, where the first superscript "2" and the next superscript "3" are not shaded, and the upper and lower parts of the last part of the sentence are not shaded. The subscript is printed with a pattern shading for the previous character rlJ.

[The espionage problem that the invention attempts to solve] According to +11 of the conventional method described above, FIG. 5B.

As shown in , it is not possible to print subscript-only shading, and according to the conventional method (2), only either the superscript or the superscript is printed, and the same digit position is printed with the superscript or the superscript. Only one of the superscripts can be printed and shaded.

When creating a document in this manner, there is a problem in that if it is desired to individually emphasize each of the superscripts and superscripts located at the same digit position using a shading pattern, this cannot be achieved using the conventional method described above.

An object of the present invention is to provide a shading processing method for reduced subscripts that can specify and print different patterns of shading for superscripts and superscripts located at the same column position in a sentence on the same line. do.

Means to solve problem C] FIG. 1 shows a basic configuration diagram of the present invention.

In FIG. 1, 10 is a document processing device, 11 is a data separation means, 12 is a shaded data creation means, 13 is an output data editing means, 14 to 17 represent data held in the memory, and 14 represents the original data. Text line data, 15 is full-width/half-width (
16 is hatching data, and 17 is output data for printing.

The present invention provides a document processing bag W (word processor) that includes:
Before performing the shading process, separate the upper and lower subscripts into separate lines, set control characters in the shading specified range of each line, and shade the data necessary for the shading process for each separated line data. It is created as a cross-hatched table, and the table in print format is created using the cross-hatched table.

[Operation] One line of text consisting of full-width characters, half-width characters, upper and lower reduction (1/4-width) subscripts, and control codes such as start and end of shading is held in memory as line data 14.

The data separation means 11 that has input this line data 14 identifies each character and control code, and data 151 regarding full-width and half-width characters and superscripts including the shaded control code and subscripts including the shaded control code. data 152 and are held as separate data 15.

Next, in the shaded data creation means 12, the separated data 1
Identify the two data in 5 and create control data for the shaded portion individually to create the shaded data 1 for full-width/half-width and subscript data 161 and subscript data 162.
6 and stored in memory.

Next, the output data editing means 13 forms output data 17 to be used when printing two lines based on the created halftone data 16 and separation data 15.

The output data 17 is used as control data when printing the same line of text multiple times.

In this way, the shading data for the upper and lower subscripts is separated into data for the subscript and data for the subscript, and the data is processed so that separate shading printing is possible for each. It is possible to print the subscripts below and the shading pattern for each.

[Example] Fig. 2 is a processing flow diagram for creating shaded data according to the embodiment, Fig. 3 is a processing flow diagram for data editing according to the embodiment, and Fig. 4 is a diagram showing the processing contents of the embodiment using a concrete example. be.

First, it is assumed that a text has been created by keystrokes, and line data including various control codes, such as the example shown in A in FIG. 4, has been created.

The notation of each control code in this data and its meaning are the same as those explained with respect to FIG. 5 of the conventional example.

Based on this line data A, select full-width and half-width characters and their shading, and superscripts and their shading control codes to create the first line data as shown in Figure 4B, part A, and the bottom The data is separated into second line data as shown at the beginning of FIG. 4B, which consists of characters related to the subscript and control codes. This separation operation is realized by identifying full-width and half-width characters, control codes for upper and lower subscripts, and control codes for starting and ending shading, and separating them into two lines. Note that the first line data excludes the superscript start/end code, and the second line data contains only the subscript, so the subscript start/end code is excluded.
Exit code is not included.

As can be seen from the example of A and B in FIG. 4B, each row of data includes control codes for starting and ending shading designation (including pattern type). Note that when there is another start of shading after the start of shading, it also indicates that the previous shading has ended.

Shading data is created for the first row data and the second row data according to the processing flow for creating hatching data shown in FIG. This process searches for the start and end of a shading code, identifies the related character code, and creates shading data as a shading table as shown in FIG. 4C1.

Shading data includes blank data (the length of the beginning of the text or the part where characters are printed after the previous shading is finished), valid data (the length of the part where characters are printed, etc.). It consists of (the length of the part to be shaded), a pattern (shading pattern), and a flag (displays the shaded part only for subscripts; it is not used for subscripts).

First, the first row data is executed, and then the second row data is executed.

First, when this process starts, it is necessary to determine whether the search for all data has been completed (step 20); in this case, it has not been completed, so in step 21, a variable that holds the number of shading items in one line (this is K) is set to "0". This variable area of the number of shaded items in one line is obtained individually corresponding to the first line data and the second line data, and each line contains shaded data (blank data, valid data, pattern).

A set of data consisting of flags).

Next, it is determined in step 22) whether the search for one line of data has been completed. In this case, since it has not been completed, the process moves to the next step 23, where a shading start code is set as the I★ search key.

After this, the start/end code of the shaded (start code only) or 1/-4 subscript (111 small subscript) is searched (step 24.25). As a result, if any of these codes is detected, its White space before start code
has been counted, the counted value is set in the table as the blank data length (step 26).

If the code detected in step 25 is a 1/4 subscript code, set the effective data length to "Oo" and set the data flag (only in the case of a subscript, the second
It is assumed that the I/4 subscript code has already been removed from the row data. ).

Also, when the detected code is the start of rope play, set the search key to the shaded end code (step 28).
Along with this shaded end code, the shaded start code and the start/end code of the 1/4 subscript code are searched (
Step 29).

When any of them is detected (step 30), the number of spaces from the start to the end of the shading is set as the effective data length,
Combined with the shading pattern, it becomes one shading data, and the number of shading items in one line of the above variable (K) is increased by 1 (step 31). Also, when returning at the start and end of 1/4 subscript (step 32) If the determination result is 1=ゝ), a data flag is set (step 36).

This flag is used to distinguish between the shading in the subscript part and the other shading, and in the case of creating the shading data for the second row data (row data related to the subscript), the flag setting process is Not performed (bypassed by determining that it is processing of the second row data).

In addition, if the shaded start codes are consecutive, in step 30) which outputs the shaded start codes in the process of detecting the shaded end code, in the subsequent steps 32 and 33, either the 1/4 subscript or the shaded end code is determined. Since it does not match the code, it is treated as a shading start code, and the process moves to step 35. In this case, the previous shading has ended and a new shading has started, so the next blank data length is set to 0° (the count value is reset), and a new one is started from step 29. The process moves on to detecting the shaded end code.

When it is determined in step 22 that the search for one line of data has ended, when a code (start of shading or start/end of 1/4 subscript) is not detected in step 25, and in step 3
If no code (shading or 1/4 subscript) is detected in step 34, set the number of shaded items in one line (the number of valid data of shaded items in one line held in the above variable as next). (Set in the area used for output editing processing)
Finally, when all the data have been searched, the process of editing the shaded output format data (FIG. 3) is executed.

To illustrate the process of FIG. 2 above using a specific example, as a result of performing the process of creating shaded data on the first row data of No.A and A of FIG. The shaded data shown in FIG. C3 is obtained.

The data at the top (5 lines) of this bottom line data was created from the first line data (A, of B), and the data at the bottom (2 lines) was created from the second line data (B's mouth).

) was created from. In this case, the number of hatched data in the first row data is "5", and the number of hatched data in the second row data is "2".

Next, the processing flow of data editing in the embodiment shown in FIG. 3 will be explained.

In the process shown in Figure 3, the shaded data obtained by the process shown in Figure 2 above, the first line data (full-width/half-width characters and subscript data) obtained from the original line data, and the second line data are used. The data (subscript data) is stored in the editing buffer, and by editing the data, an editing result in print format is obtained in the processing area in the editing buffer.

First, in step 40, full-width/half-width characters and subscripts are transferred from the first line data to an output buffer (a buffer (not shown) in which output data for printing is stored). (excluding the start/end detection code), followed by the return code.

To give a concrete example, the data shown in ■ in Figure 4 is extracted from the data in Figure 4 B, No. A, and a reinstatement code (
Transfer the code that returns to the beginning of the same line).

In addition, in the 4th diagram,
Data of editing results obtained by each output editing process shown in the figure is shown.

Next, in step 42, G1 determines whether the shading data (shading data for the upper half of the line) for full-width/half-width characters and subscripts has been set (step 42), and if it has not been set, The shaded data (corresponding to the first row data) obtained in the process shown in FIG. Transfer the line break code) (
Step 44).

In this specific example, in the case of the shaded data of C0 in FIG.
．． The loop in step 42 is repeated five times to execute step 44, and the data in the fourth diagram, (2) is obtained.

Next, in steps 45 to 48, the shading data for the lower half of full-width and half-width characters is transferred to the output sofa based on the shading data (for the first line data) used in step 43 above. That is, in step 46, it is determined whether the data is subscript shaded data. This determination is made based on whether there is a flag set in step 36 of FIG. 2. In the case of a subscript, the shaded data of the subscript is made into a dummy (space code) and transferred to the editing buffer (step 47). If not, the half-shading data of the lower half of full-width and half-width characters is transferred, and the return code is transferred (step 49).

In a specific example corresponding to this, the lower half of the line data of the full-width character is transferred using the shaded data (number of pieces 5) in the first line of C9 in FIG. 4, and in this example, steps 45 to 47.
The loop of 8 is repeated five times (y4 times the number of data), and the process moves to step 49. As a result, the lower half of the shaded data is obtained in the editing buffer, as shown in the fourth diagram, (2).

Next, in step 50, the subscript data is transferred (excluding the detection code), and then the reinstatement code is transferred (step 51).

To give a concrete example, the second row data (FIG. 4B).

Using the shading data for the second line (lower two lines of C1 in Figure 4), the subscript character ``2'' is drawn as shown in ■ in the 4th diagram.
and rcDJ are transferred, and a restoration code is set.

In the next step 52, it is determined whether the subscript shading data has been set, and if it has not been set, the subscript shading data is transferred (step 53), and the half line feed code is transferred (step 54).

To give a concrete example, in the fourth figure, the subscript "2" such as ■ and the data for rCDJ are transferred to the editing buffer. Steps 53 and 54 operate in a loop for the number of halftone data (two for the second line), and finally, in step 54, a half line feed code is transferred.

Through such editing processing, the editing result data consisting of the five data strings shown in Figure 4, ■ to ■, is formed in the editing buffer, and when the data is supplied to the printer at the time of printing, the upper and lower subscripts are Print different shading patterns on the

Figure 4E shows the fourth image obtained by the process in Figure 4 above.
The printing order when printing is performed based on the data in Figures 1 to 2 is shown. The contents of each line in the diagram are shown in a format in which new contents are added to the print result of the previous line corresponding to ■ to ■.

In the specific example shown in FIG. 4, the print result corresponding to the j-te data shown in A is as shown in F.

[Effect of the invention 1] According to the present invention, it is possible to independently shade the upper and lower subscripts, which could not be achieved with the conventional method, and moreover, it is possible to shade the upper and lower subscripts of the same digit with different patterns. can be shaded.
