Abstract

PURPOSE:To make it possible to automatically transfer necessary Japanese language information from a center side, and to eliminate the necessity of holding Japanese language information in advance at a remote side. CONSTITUTION:Data or job inputted by input control section 1-2 from input data file 1-1 at the center side is sent to a remote side by a remote job sending section 1-3. When a remote job receiving section 1-7 receives the data or job, a Japanese language information receiving section 1-9 requests the center side for Japanese language information. A Japanese language information sending section 106, upon the request, sends Japanese language information to the Japanese language information receiving section 1-9. A Japanese language printer section 1-8 outputs data or job including Japanese language information to a Japanese language printer 1-13.

[Detailed description of the invention]

0001

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 1. Field of the Invention The present invention relates to a Japanese language information transfer system, and more particularly to a Japanese language information transfer system for an information processing system that transfers Japanese information from a center side to a remote side.

0002

[Prior Art] Conventional Japanese information transfer methods, when outputting data or jobs to a remote Japanese printer, transfer the Japanese information (format information and character patterns) used by the data or jobs. It had to be stored on the remote side in advance. In other words, it was not possible to output data or jobs that used Japanese information that did not exist on the remote side.

[0003] Furthermore, in the conventional Japanese information transfer method, even if the Japanese information on the center side is updated, the remote side is not updated, so there is a difference in the Japanese information between the output on the center side and the output on the remote side. Something was happening.

0004

[Problems to be Solved by the Invention] The above-mentioned conventional Japanese information transfer method has poor operability because the data to be output remotely and the Japanese information used by the job must be stored in advance. It has its drawbacks.

[0005] In addition, in the conventional Japanese information transfer method, due to the difference in capacity between the center side and the remote side, it is not possible to retain all the Japanese information existing on the center side, so it is not possible to retain all the Japanese information that exists on the center side. This method has the drawback of not being able to output data or jobs that use Japanese information that does not exist on the remote side.

Furthermore, in the conventional Japanese information transfer method, even if the Japanese information on the center side is updated, the remote side is not updated, so a discrepancy occurs in the Japanese information between the center side and the remote side. Even with the same data or job,
This method has the disadvantage that the output from the center may be different from the output from the remote.

[0007]

[Means for Solving the Problems] The Japanese information transfer method of the present invention inputs data and jobs in an input control unit, and transmits the input data and jobs in a remote job transmission unit from a center side to a remote side. In the Japanese information transfer method of the information processing system, the remote job reception section receives data and jobs sent from the center side, and the Japanese printer output section outputs the data and jobs received to the remote Japanese printer. A Japanese information receiving unit on the remote side that searches for Japanese information that does not exist on the remote side and requests that Japanese information from the center side, and a Japanese information transmitter on the center side that sends the requested Japanese information to the remote side. It consists of a section.

Embodiments Next, embodiments of the present invention will be described with reference to the drawings.

FIG. 1 is a block diagram showing an embodiment of the Japanese information transfer system of the present invention.

As shown in FIG. 1, 1-1 is an input data file, 1-2 is an input control section, 1-3 is a remote job transmission section, 1-4 is a format information file on the center side, and 1-5 is an input data file.
is the character pattern file on the center side, 1-6 is the Japanese information transmitting section, 1-7 is the remote job receiving section, 1-8 is the Japanese printer output section, 1-9 is the Japanese information receiving section, 1-
10 represents a format information file on the remote side, 1-11 represents a character pattern file on the remote side, 1-12 represents a spool file, and 1-13 represents a remote Japanese printer.

First, input data read from the input data file 1-1 is passed to the remote job transmitting section 1-3 by the input control section 1-2.

[0012]The remote job transmitter 1-3 then
The data is transmitted to the remote job receiving section 1-7 via the line.

[0013] The remote job receiving unit 1-7 also sends the received data to a spool file 1-12 on the remote side.
At the same time, the Japanese information used in the data is notified to the Japanese information receiving section 1-9.

[0014] Then, the Japanese information receiving unit 1-9 determines whether the notified Japanese information (format information, character pattern) exists in the format information file 1-10 or character pattern file 1-11 on the remote side. is searched for, and if it does not exist, the Japanese information (format information, character pattern) is requested from the Japanese information transmitting section 1-6.

Therefore, the Japanese information transmitter 1-6 reads the requested Japanese information (format information, character pattern) from the format information file 1-4 and character pattern file 1-5 on the center side, and transmits the requested Japanese information (format information, character pattern) to the Japanese The information is transferred to the word information receiving section 1-9.

The Japanese information receiving unit 1-9 then writes the transferred Japanese information (format information, character patterns) into a format information file 1-10 and a character pattern file 1-11 on the remote side. If the file overflows, the oldest Japanese information will be deleted.

Next, the Japanese printer output unit 1-8 extracts the data from the spool file 1-12 and converts the Japanese information (format information, character pattern) used by the data into the format information on the remote side. It reads out the file 1-10 and the character pattern file 1-11, loads the Japanese information into the remote Japanese printer 1-13, and outputs the data.

[0018] Also, Japanese information (format information,
When the character pattern) has been updated, the Japanese information transmitting section 1-6 notifies the Japanese information receiving section 1-9 that the Japanese information has been updated.

Then, the Japanese information receiving section 1-9 requests the notified Japanese information from the Japanese information transmitting section 1-6.

[0020] Furthermore, the Japanese information transmitter 1-6 reads the requested Japanese information (format information, character pattern) from the format information file 1-4 and character pattern file 1-5 on the center side. The information is transferred to the Japanese information receiving section 1-9.

Therefore, the Japanese information receiving unit 1-9 writes the transferred Japanese information (format information, character patterns) into the remote side format information file 1-10 and character pattern file 1-11.

[0022]

[Effects of the Invention] As explained above, the Japanese information transfer method of the present invention automatically transfers Japanese information that does not exist on the remote side from the center side when outputting to a Japanese printer on the remote side. This eliminates the need to store Japanese information to be used in advance on the remote side.
This has the effect of improving operability.

Furthermore, the Japanese language information transfer method of the present invention eliminates the problem of not being able to output to a remote Japanese language printer because there is no Japanese information on the remote side, improving reliability and improving the Japanese language information on the center side. When the information is updated, the remote side is also automatically updated, which has the effect of eliminating the discrepancy between the Japanese printer output on the center side and the Japanese printer output on the remote side.
