The operation of the Japanese document processing apparatus of this embodiment configured as described above will be described below with reference to FIGS. 5 and 6. Characters input from the character input section 1 are sent to the document editing section 3 and stored in the document storage section 4 at the same time. The document editing section 3 performs editing operations such as insertion and deletion on the input characters, and simultaneously stores the editing results in the document storage section 4.
The furigana addition section 2 adds furigana to the designated character and sends the result to the document editing section 3. The display control unit 5 displays the results of character input and document editing on the display screen 6. The cursor control unit 7 moves and displays the cursor position on the display screen 6. When a furigana is added to a character, the furigana symbol display section 9 displays a furigana symbol indicating the presence of the furigana between the lines immediately above the character. Further, when the cursor is placed on a character with furigana, the window display control section 8 enlarges and displays the character and furigana at the lower right of the display screen. FIG. 5 shows a screen in which characters with furigana are displayed on a display screen in a Japanese document processing device according to an embodiment of the present invention. 11 is the line where characters are displayed, 12 is the space between lines, 13 is the character with furigana, 15 is the cursor, 16 is the window at the bottom right of the display screen that enlarges the character at the cursor position, and 17 is the enlarged display.
