Abstract

PURPOSE:To make a header or a non-header of an arbitrary character string without paying the attention to the level of the header neither bringing about contradictions in the document structure with respect to documentation under the display of a print image. CONSTITUTION:When a character string which a header is not made of is selected by a selecting part 11 and it is indicated by an indicating part 12 that a header should be made of this character string, a specifying part 22 specifies the paragraph structure based on the structured document stored in a document data storage part 30, and a header making processing part 23 generates a header structure corresponding to the character string. If it is indicated by the indicating part 12 that a header should not made of the character string, it is processed by a non-header making processing part 25. A numbering part 26 redetermines a header number like a chapter number or a section number of the header of the structured document reflecting the processing result of the header making processing part 23 or the non-header making processing part 25 and displays it on a display part 40.

Description

Detailed Description of the Invention

[0001]

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 1. Field of the Invention The present invention relates to a document processing apparatus such as a word processor to which an interactive system operating on a workstation or a high-performance personal computer is applied, and more particularly to a document processing apparatus which handles structured document data.

[0002]

2. Description of the Related Art Conventionally, an interactive system is one in which data processing is performed by the interaction between the user and the system. The user instructs the system what to process, and the system displays the result on the display screen. The process is advanced by repeating displaying. A word processor is an application of such an interactive system to document processing.

In a general document, a visual effect can be obtained by giving a chapter number or a section number to the title of a chapter or a section, or by displaying the title character differently from the text. . A word processor for easily creating such a document is available from Canon 1987.
It is known that it was disclosed in the publication of "Guide for Utilizing the Canon Word Pro 1000" published in 2010.

In the word processor adopting the technique disclosed in the above publication, four types of headings, ie, large heading / medium heading / small heading / accompanying heading, are prepared as heading types to be used for chapter and section titles. By specifying which kind of heading among the four kinds of heading the character string selected by the user is set,
You can register the headline. In addition, for each heading, the method of assigning a heading number, the font of the heading character string,
Since settings related to the layout of headings can be set separately, for example, if you set a certain character string as a major heading, the heading number, typeface, layout method, etc. set for the major heading are Applied.

Further, in the word processor adopting the technique disclosed in the above publication, WYSIWY
It is also possible to display the document in G (What You See Is What You Get = displays on the screen the state that would look like when printed by a printer) format.

However, in the word processor of the WYSIWYG format, the document data is not structured, and the heading is just a mark. Therefore, at which level of heading (large heading, middle heading, and sub heading) is added to make the marking. The user must be aware of which headline). Also, in the middle of continuing the operation, there was a case where a contradiction occurred in the hierarchical relationship of headings.

Further, conventionally, in addition to a word processor of WYSIWYG format, a document processing apparatus for handling structured document data has been realized. As such a document processing apparatus, a structure consciously called an outline processor is considered. Device effective for creating a document (for example, Japanese Laid-Open Patent Publication No.
1-195455).

However, in the case of the outline processor, there is no contradiction in the hierarchical relation of headings, but since the display format is not WYSIWYG, it is extremely difficult for the user to create a document while imagining the state of the completed document. It was difficult.

[0009]

As described above, although the structured document cannot be handled by the above-described conventional word processor, document processing device, or the like, whether or not the document is created with emphasis on the WYSIWYG format display. Or WYSI
I can't display the document in WYG format, but I focused on creating a structured document.
It has not been possible to create a document so that the WYSIWYG format display is maintained and the structure of the document is consistent.

According to the present invention, a structured document is created under a display format of a print image corresponding to a print result when actually printed, and at the same time, a heading of an arbitrary character string or a non-heading of an arbitrary heading is performed. It is an object of the present invention to provide a document processing apparatus that allows a user to perform the above without being aware of the level of the headline and without causing a contradiction in the document structure.

[0011]

In order to achieve the above object, in the document processing apparatus of the first invention, printing when actually printing a structured document including a display means, a heading structure and a paragraph structure. Window processing means for displaying on the display means in a display format of a print image corresponding to the result,
From the structured document displayed on the display means, a selection means for selecting a character string that has not been captioned, an instruction means for instructing that the caption should be captioned, and the selection means according to the instruction from the instruction means. Specifying means for specifying the paragraph structure to which the character string selected by means of, and from the paragraph structure specified by the specifying means appear after the selected character string in the logical structure of the structured document And the structure of the heading processing means for generating a heading structure for heading corresponding to the selected character string based on the separated structure, and reflecting the processing result by the heading processing means. And numbering means for re-determining the heading number of the heading of the structured document.

Further, in the document processing apparatus of the second invention, the display means and the display format of the print image corresponding to the print result when the structured document including the heading structure and the paragraph structure is actually printed, Window processing means to be displayed on the display means, selection means for selecting a character string that has been captioned from the structured document displayed on the display means, and instruction means for instructing decapsulation According to an instruction from the instructing means, specifying means for specifying a heading structure to which the character string selected by the selecting means belongs, and converting the heading structure specified by the specifying means into a paragraph structure, A non-heading processing unit that processes the specified paragraph structure so that it belongs to the heading structure existing immediately before the specified heading structure in the logical structure of the structured document. When, and comprising a numbering unit for re-determining the heading number of heading of the structured document that reflects the results of processing by said non-headlines processing means.

Further, in the document processing apparatus of the third invention, in the second invention, it is determined whether or not the specified heading structure can be made non-heading by the logical structure of the structured document at the present time. It is characterized in that it further comprises a judging means for judging based on the above, and unmarks only the heading structure object judged to be non-heading by this judging means.

[0014]

According to the first aspect of the invention, when the selecting means selects a character string that has not been headed and the instructing means further indicates that the heading should be headed, the specifying means causes the character string selected by the selecting means. Specifies the paragraph structure to which it belongs and passes it to the heading processing means. In the heading processing means, the structure that appears after the selected character string in the logical structure (logical structure) of the structured document is separated from the paragraph structure specified by the specifying means, and this separation is performed. Based on the structure, a heading structure is generated so as to be headed corresponding to the character string selected by the selecting means. Further, the numbering means redetermines the heading numbers such as chapter numbers and section numbers of the headings of the structured document reflecting the processing result by the heading processing means.

According to the second aspect of the invention, when the character string headed by the selecting means is selected and the instruction means instructs the non-heading, the specifying means
The heading structure to which the character string selected by the selecting means belongs is specified and passed to the non-heading processing means. The non-heading processing unit converts the heading structure specified by the specifying unit into a paragraph structure, and converts the converted paragraph structure into the specified heading structure in the logical structure (logical structure) of the structured document. Process as if it belongs to the heading structure that existed immediately before. Further, the numbering means redetermines the heading numbers such as chapter numbers and section numbers of the headings of the structured document reflecting the processing result by the non-heading processing means.

According to the third invention, in the second invention,
Only when it is judged by the judging means that the specified heading structure can be made non-heading, the specified heading structure is made non-heading.

[0017]

Embodiments of the present invention will be described below with reference to the accompanying drawings.

FIG. 1 is a functional block diagram showing an embodiment of the document processing apparatus according to the present invention. In the figure, the document processing apparatus includes an input unit 10, a control unit 20, a document data storage unit 30, and a display unit 40.

The document data storage unit 30 stores structured document data including a heading structure and a paragraph structure.
In this embodiment, the structured document data is stored in a tree-structured data structure format.

On the display unit 40, the structured data document read from the document data storage unit 30 by the control unit 20 is displayed in the WYSIWYG format.

The input unit 10 selects a character string that has not been captioned (a character string to be captioned) from the structured document displayed on the display unit 40, or a character string that has been captioned (non-captioned). Selector 11 for selecting headings)
And an instruction unit 12 for instructing that it should be captioned or should not be captivated.

In the control unit 20, the window processing unit 21 reads the structured document data from the document data storage unit 30 and displays the print image corresponding to the print result when actually printing, that is, in the WYSIWYG format. It is displayed on the display unit 40.

When the specifying unit 22 receives an instruction from the instruction unit 12 to make a heading, the specifying unit 22 refers to the structured document (tree structure) in the document data storage unit 30 and selects the character string selected by the selecting unit 11. Specifies the paragraph structure to which belongs. Further, when there is an instruction from the instruction unit 12 to de- headline, the structured document (tree structure) in the document data storage unit 30 is referred to,
The heading structure to which the character string selected by the selection unit 11 belongs is specified. The paragraph structure or heading structure thus specified is notified from the specifying unit 22 to the heading processing unit 23.

The heading processing unit 23 separates the structure that appears after the character string selected by the selection unit 11 in the logical structure of the structured document from the paragraph structure specified by the specification unit 22, and Based on the separated structure, a heading structure is generated so as to be headed corresponding to the character string selected by the selection unit 11.

The judgment unit 24 determines whether or not the heading structure specified by the specifying unit 22 can be made non-heading, based on the logical structure of the structured document at the present time stored in the document data storage unit 30. And the result is notified to the non-heading processing unit 25.

When the judgment result of the judgment unit 24 indicates that the judgment can be made non-heading, the non-heading processing unit 25 converts the heading structure specified by the specifying unit 22 into a paragraph structure, and the converted paragraphs. The structure is processed to belong to the heading structure existing immediately before the specified heading structure in the logical structure in the structured document.

The numbering unit 26 is a heading processing unit 2.
The heading number of the heading of the structured document is re-determined in consideration of the heading result of 3 or the heading result of the non-heading processing unit 25. In other words, renumber heading numbers such as chapter numbers and section numbers.

FIG. 2 is a block diagram showing a hardware configuration for realizing the apparatus of the embodiment shown in FIG.
This device is applied to computers, workstations, word processors and the like. In the figure, the device is
A processing device 203 including a control device 201 and a main storage device 202, a display device 204, and a keyboard 205.
And an input device 207 including a mouse 206 and an auxiliary storage device 208. The control device 201 is the control unit 20, and the main storage device 202 is the document data storage unit 30.
The display device 204 corresponds to the display unit 40, and the input device 207 corresponds to the input unit 10. Auxiliary storage device 20
Reference numeral 8 is for saving the structured document in a file format.

With such a configuration, the overall flow of processing by the document processing apparatus will be described with reference to the flowchart shown in FIG. 3 and the above-mentioned FIG.

When a character string is selected by the input unit 10 and a desired command is further input, the control unit 20 causes the input unit 1 to
The character string information and the command from 0 are received (step 301), and the command is interpreted. And the control unit 20
Judges whether or not to execute heading based on the result of interpreting the command (step 302), and in the case of heading, executes heading processing (step 30).
3) On the other hand, if the heading is not performed, it is determined whether the non-heading is executed (step 304). here,
In the case of non-heading, the non-heading processing is executed (step 305). On the other hand, in the case of non-heading processing, processing according to the command is executed (step 306).

Next, the captioning process will be described with reference to FIGS. 4 to 8 and FIG. 1 described above. 4 is a flowchart showing the captioning process operation, and FIGS. 5 to 8 are diagrams for explaining the captioning process.

Now, on the display unit 40, WY as shown in FIG.
It is assumed that the SIWYG window 500 is displayed. This window 500 shows a window in which a document relating to a patent specification is being created. In this window 500, "Chapter 1 Invention Title" and "Chapter 2 Claims" have already been set as the first level headings. And “Chapter 3 Detailed Explanation of the Invention” exist, and as the second level heading, there are “3.1 Industrial Application Field” and “Section 3.2 Problems to be Solved by the Invention”. There is.

In such a display state, the structured document is stored in the document data storage unit 30 with a tree-structured data structure as shown in FIG. In the data structure shown in FIG. 6, a portion indicated by 600A indicates a logical structure, and the heading 3, title 3 and the like are constituent elements of the logical structure. The portion indicated by 600B indicates the content portion of the document. Further, in the logical structure, a component having a content part and a content part corresponding to the component are associated with each other, for example, by a pointer. Specifically, a pointer to the corresponding content part is held in the component having the content part.

In the logical structure shown in FIG. 6, the heading structure of the heading of "Chapter 1 Invention Name" and "Chapter 2 Claims" which are the first level headings in the structured document shown in FIG. Are omitted. If those heading structures are illustrated, the heading structure for “Chapter 1 Title of Invention” is “Heading 1”, and the heading structure for “Chapter 2 Claims” is “Heading 2”.
Thus, the "heading 1" and the "heading 2" are at the same level as the constituent elements of the "heading 3" in the logical structure shown in FIG.

Now, in the display state shown in FIG. 5, when the paragraph "prior art" in section 3.1 is to be indexed,
The selecting unit 11 selects the character string "conventional technique" in the paragraph in Section 3.1, and then the instructing unit 12 selects the "heading" command to instruct the execution.

As a result, the "conventional technique" character string information selected by the selection unit 11 and the "heading" command instructed by the instruction unit 12 are input to the specification unit 22 and are shown in FIG. As described above, the identifying unit 22 recognizes the input character string (step 401) and interprets the input command (step 402).

Next, the specifying unit 22 uses the document data storage unit 30.
6 is referred to (step 403), and the paragraph structure including the currently selected character string "prior art" is specified (step 40).
4) Further, the specified paragraph structure is added to the heading processing unit 2
Pass to 3. In this example, the paragraph structure 610 (see FIG. 6) is specified and passed to the heading processing unit 23.

In the heading processing section 23, the structure that appears after the selected character string in the logical structure shown in FIG. 6 is separated from the passed paragraph structure 610 (step 405), and based on the separated structure. To generate a headline structure (step 406). In this example, the paragraph structure 61
Structure 611 (see FIG. 6) will be disconnected from 0.

Next, the heading processing unit 23 performs step 40.
A title number is added to the heading structure generated in 6 (step 407) and the heading structure is arranged at a predetermined position in the tree structure (step 408), and then the numbering unit 26 is notified of that fact.

In the numbering unit 26, step 406
In the tree structure in which the heading structure generated in (3) is arranged, the title number of the heading structure that appears next to the heading structure is reassigned (step 409), and then the window processing unit 21 is notified of the end of the numbering.
The data structure of the tree structure after the title numbers are reassigned by the numbering unit 26 has a content as shown in FIG.

That is, as shown in FIG. 7, the character string 4 (“prior art”), which is a substructure of the heading 4 in FIG. It is separated from the heading 4, a new heading structure is generated, a title number is assigned, and it is added to the tree structure as a second level heading. At this time, the same level as the heading level to which the paragraph to be headed belongs is assigned as the heading level. In addition, the title numbers are re-assigned to the subsequent headings. The data structure shown in FIG. 7 is the first-level heading “Chapter 1 Invention Name” and “Chapter 2 Claims”.
The heading structure of the heading is omitted.

When the window processing unit 21 receives the numbering end notification, the document data storage unit 30.
The structured document is displayed in the WYSIWYG format on the basis of the tree-structured data shown in FIG.
It is displayed again at 0 (step 410). That is, the display content shown in FIG. 5 is changed to the display content shown in FIG. As is clear from FIG. 8, in addition to replacing the paragraph “Conventional Technology” in FIG. 5 with the heading “Section 3.2 Conventional Technology” at the second level, the chapter numbering after that has been changed. Therefore, the second-level heading “Section 3.2 Invention or problem to be solved” in FIG. 5 is changed to “Section 3.3 Problem to be solved by the invention”.

Next, the heading process by the apparatus shown in FIG. 2 will be briefly described with reference to FIG.

First, when the user clicks on a button (901) provided on the mouse 206 of the input device 207 on a character string in a certain paragraph, the display device 204 indicates that the character string is selected. Display (902) is performed.
In this state, when the user operates the mouse 206 to instruct a "heading" command (903) from an item such as a menu to instruct execution, the control device 201 interprets the command (904). , Perform heading processing. That is, the control device 201 refers to the tree-structured document data (905) stored in the main storage device 202 to identify the paragraph structure including the currently selected character string, and based on this paragraph structure. And generate an appropriate level of heading structure (906). Also, the heading structure is replaced with the paragraph structure in the tree structure stored in the document data storage unit 30, and then the title number of the heading is newly numbered (907). The display device 204 displays the headline (909) by reflecting the content of the tree-structured document data (908) updated in this way.

Next, the non-heading processing will be described with reference to FIGS. 10 to 14 and the above-mentioned FIG. 10 is a flowchart showing the non-heading processing operation, and FIGS. 11 to 14 are diagrams for explaining the non-heading processing.

Now, on the display section 40, W as shown in FIG.
It is assumed that the YSIWYG window 500 is displayed. In such a display state, the structured document is stored in the document data storage unit 30 in a tree-structured data structure as shown in FIG. The data structure shown in FIG. 11 is a structure obtained by adding the heading structure of the heading “Chapter 2 Claims”, which is the first level heading, to the data structure shown in FIG. 7.

Here, in the structured document displayed in the window shown in FIG. 8 obtained by the above heading processing, the first level heading "Chapter 3 Detailed Description of the Invention" is not headed. The process for converting to a computer will be described.

Now, in the display state shown in FIG. 11, the selecting section 11 selects "Chapter 3 Detailed explanation of the invention", and then the instructing section 12 selects the "non-heading" command. Give instructions.

As a result, the character string information selected by the selecting unit 11 and the "non-heading" command instructed by the instructing unit 12 are input to the specifying unit 22.
As shown in, the identifying unit 22 recognizes the input headline (step 1001) and interprets the input command (step 1002).

Next, the specifying unit 22 uses the document data storage unit 30.
By referring to the data of the tree structure as shown in FIG. 12 stored in (step 1003), the heading structure including the currently selected heading "Chapter 3 Detailed Description of the Invention" is specified (step 1003). 1104) and passes the specified heading structure to the determination unit 24. In this example, the heading structure 12
10 (see FIG. 12) is identified and passed to the determination unit 24.

In the judgment section 24, the passed heading structure 11
Whether or not 10 can be made non-heading is determined by referring to the logical structure of the document data in the document data storage unit 30 (step 1005). If non-heading is possible,
To that effect and the passed heading structure, the non-heading processing unit 26
Pass to. Note that the determination unit 24, when making a headline non-heading, makes the headline non-heading only when there is no heading below the selected heading.

The non-heading processing section 26 generates a paragraph structure based on the above-mentioned passed heading structure (step 1006), and the generated paragraph structure is shown in FIG.
Arrangement processing is performed so that the heading structure located immediately before the passed heading structure in the logical structure shown in 2 belongs (step 1007), and the numbering unit 26 is notified of that.

The numbering unit 26 logically renumbers the title numbers of the heading structures appearing after the generated paragraph structure (step 1008) and notifies the window processing unit 21 of the end of the numbering.

The data structure of the tree structure after the title numbers are reassigned by the numbering unit 26 has the contents shown in FIG.

That is, in FIG. 12, the heading 2 in FIG. 11 is made non-heading so that the heading 3 is deleted from the tree structure, and based on the title character string (“Detailed Description of the Invention”). A new paragraph structure is created and added to the tree structure as a substructure of Heading 2. Further, in FIG. 12, headings 4, 5, and 6 which are substructures of heading 3 in FIG. 11 are replaced with substructures of heading 2 as headings 3, 4, and 5, respectively, and title numbers are reassigned. .

Upon receiving the numbering end notification, the window processing unit 21 displays the structured document in WYSIWYG format based on the tree-structured data shown in FIG. 12 stored in the document data storage unit 30. Part 4
It is displayed again at 0 (step 1009). That is, the display content shown in FIG. 8 is changed to the display content shown in FIG. As is clear from FIG. 13, the heading “Chapter 3 Detailed Description of the Invention” in FIG. 8 has been replaced by the paragraph under the heading “Chapter 2 Claims”, and in addition to Chapter 3 Each section included in was replaced in Chapter 2, and the title number was renumbered accordingly.

If the headline cannot be made non-heading in step 1005, the judgment section 24 presents the fact to the user (step 1010) and interrupts the processing (step 1011).

Here, the case where the headline can be made non-heading and the case where the heading cannot be made non-heading will be described by using a specific example.

For example, assume that the heading level has a hierarchical structure as shown in FIG. In the example shown in FIG. 14, the rectangle represents the level of the headline, and the number in the rectangle represents the title number.

"1", "2" as the first level heading
Each heading of exists, and the second that exists under the first level
The level headings are “1.1”, “1.2”, “2.
There are headings "1" and "2.2", and "1.
1.1 ”,“ 1.1.2 ”, and“ 1.1.1 ”are present, and as a fourth-level heading that is subordinate to the third level,“ 1.2.1. There is a heading "1".

In the heading of such a hierarchical structure,
The heading at the beginning of each level can be "non-heading" only when there is no heading in the lower layer, while the "non-heading" processing is prohibited when the heading is in the lower layer.

In FIG. 15, the heading indicated by the symbol “x” indicates that the heading cannot be made non-heading, and the heading indicated by the symbol “◯” indicates that the heading can be made non-heading. For example, when the heading of "Chapter 1" is "1.n section", "non-heading" cannot be executed.

Next, the non-heading processing by the apparatus shown in FIG. 2 will be briefly described with reference to FIG.

First, when the user clicks a button provided on the mouse 206 of the input device 207 near a headline (1501), the display device 204 displays a display indicating that the headline is selected (1502). I do.
In this state, when the user operates the mouse 206 to instruct a "non-heading" command (1503) from an item such as a menu to instruct execution, the control device 201 interprets the command (1504). , Non-heading processing is executed. That is, the control device 201 controls the main storage device 20.
Document data (tree structure) stored in 2 (150
5), the paragraph structure is generated from the tree structure from the character string of the currently selected heading (1506). Further, the paragraph structure is replaced with the tree-structured heading structure held by the document data storage unit 30, and then the title number of the heading is newly numbered (1507). The tree-structured document data updated in this way (1508)
The display device 204 displays (1509) the decapitalized paragraph (character string) by reflecting the content of (1).

The control device 201 changes the structure in the paragraph structure generation (1506) so that no contradiction occurs in the document structure. However, if the contradiction in the document structure cannot be resolved, the user changes the structure. Is notified that it cannot be decapitated and the process is interrupted. Then, the fact that it cannot be decapitated is displayed on the display device 204.

As described above, according to this embodiment, W
The operation related to the heading of the structured document can be performed under the display in the YSIWYG format without causing a contradiction in the document structure. In addition, it is possible to directly operate on document elements such as headings and paragraphs while checking the finished document. Further, it is possible to create a document having a logically consistent structure without paying attention to the heading level.

[0067]

As described above, according to the present invention, a structured document including a heading structure and a paragraph structure is displayed on the display means in a print image display format corresponding to the print result when actually printed. On the other hand, if an operation is performed to make a non-heading character string into a heading, the non-heading character string can be headed without causing a contradiction in the document structure.

When an operation is performed to make a headlined headline non-heading, the headlined headline can be made non-heading without causing a contradiction in the document structure.

Therefore, when creating and editing a structured document, the user should be aware of the level of the headline when the unheaded character string is headed or the headed heading is unheaded. Instead, it is possible to create and edit a desired structured document by selecting a target object and instructing that it should be captioned or non-captioned.

Therefore, while creating a structured document under the display format of the print image corresponding to the print result when actually printed, the heading of any character string or the non-heading of any heading is performed. It is possible to provide a document processing device that can be performed by the user without being conscious of the level of the headline and without causing a contradiction in the document structure.
