There was a troublesome work of setting and registering various conditions for each person when using the device.

Further, there is a problem in that even if the same word is generated during the document creation, the characters are different depending on the operator, and new information is sometimes registered in the information processing device.

[0006]

As a means for solving the above problems, a magnetic card or an IC card (hereinafter referred to as a card) for storing personal information is used in a card reading device at the time of starting document creation information processing of an information processing device. Identify the reading operator. From this identifying step to the end of the operation, the card is inserted into the card reader, and new information generated during information processing during document creation is automatically registered in the card.

Further, even if the card is removed from the card reader after the condition setting is completed, the new information is written into the card reader again when the new information is registered.

[0008] An operator can freely use an information processing device in which the condition setting for document creation, for example, the input environment, display environment, condition setting for format setting is determined by card information, and information such as frequently-used idioms and technical terms is used. Pull out from the card,
It is used for information processing when creating a document when using the information processing apparatus.

Further, information generated during the information processing work, for example, idioms and technical terms which the operator desires to save is registered in the card from the card reader.

[0010]

[Function] The card stores information about the setting state of the information processing apparatus that each individual uses most and information processing of each individual. Based on the information input to the information processing apparatus from the card reader, the document is stored. The information processing device sets the creation conditions.

After that, the operator inputs information from the keyboard in order to start the information input work for creating the document. The text to be input can be made into a document by using the information stored in advance in the information processing device from the card together with the unique information contained in the information processing device, in accordance with each person's favorite expression.

[0012]

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

The information processing apparatus 1 has a control board 2,
A power supply 3, a display device 4, a floppy disk device 5 (FDD in the drawing), a hard disk device 6 (HDD in the drawing) are provided as storage devices, and a control board 2 thereof includes a keyboard 7, a mouse 8 and a card in addition to each device. The reader 9 is electrically connected. In the information processing apparatus 1, the operator sets various conditions in the information processing of the document creation as in the state of FIG. 1, and the card information 13 registered in the card 10 shown in FIG. 4, that is, the input corresponding to the setting of the initial condition. Environment setting 14, Display environment setting 1
5, format setting 16, idiom information 17 registered by each individual required for document creation processing, technical term information 1
8 is in a state of being read by the card reader 9.

In the prior art, an individual operator selects various conditions of the information processing apparatus as necessary, for example, each item of the format setting 20 shown in FIG.

However, the control board 2 in the information processing apparatus 1 which receives the card information 13 displays the input environment, the display environment and the format setting on the display apparatus 4 as shown in FIGS. Can confirm. It can also be changed if necessary.

If a card having different information is read, for example, the format can be set as shown in FIG.

According to the present embodiment, for example, at the level of several tens of operators, for example, in a training center or a school where training for document creation is performed based on an information processing device, students cannot identify the device. Therefore, personal information that is specified for each information processing device when operated with a card is a document with the most easy-to-use input, display environment, and format settings desired by each individual without specifying the information processing device. It can be easily created.

The information processing apparatus 1 in the document creation process
