Description

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION Field of the Invention The present invention relates to a ruby character sectoring device for processing Kanji information by a computer.

Conventional configuration and its problems With the development of electronic computers in recent years, kanji information processing technology has begun to spread. Along with this, display devices for characters such as kanji that require a large number of pixels have been developed, and in the future there will be demands for smaller sizes, lower prices, and more sophisticated display functions.

One of the advancements in display functions is the ability to display characters of different sizes, as shown in Figure 2.
An example of display on T) is shown below. In the example of FIG. 2, kanji and alphabetic characters are shown in different character sizes, and the character width of the alphabetic characters is 1/2 that of the kanji characters. Generally, in the case of such a display, the second
In the figure, (201) is called a full-width character, and (202) is called a half-width character. Furthermore, there are ruby characters for assigning phonetic names to kanji, examples of which are shown in (20B) and (204) in Figure 1. The character size is 1/2 for half-width characters and V4 for full-width characters.

In FIG. 3, full-width characters are decomposed into (JOI) and half-width characters are decomposed into (SO2). In the case of full-width characters (801),
One character is divided into four blocks (top, bottom, left and right), pixel groups are created, and each character generation circuit is divided into four blocks: CCl2, CCl1, C
If G # 2, CG + 8, the #0 block of characters goes to CG # O, the #1 block goes to CG +
1, 4L2 Nozuo Tsuk goes to CCl2, #3 Nozuo”
, 1 are accommodated in CCl3. Also, half-width characters 1302)
In the case of ``1, lower and 2 locks, the upper block is #-0, the lower block is #2, and each block is C.
G #0 and CCl2 are accommodated in the half-width part of the character generation circuit. Furthermore, in the case of a ruby character (808), it is set to #0, and the character block is stored in the ruby part of the character generation circuit of CGi.

Next, the method of displaying the character pixel group that has been decomposed and accommodated in the character generation area is to decompose the entire display screen into multiple blocks, of which four blocks display one full-width character, and two blocks display one half-width character. is displayed, and one ruby character is displayed by pressing 1'Jjotsu. As an example, two kanji characters in one line on both sides of the display.
If 4 characters (48 half-width characters) are displayed and the entire screen is 16 lines (no line spacing), 48 jo Tsuku per screen
32 locks - Just divide it into 1536 locks, 1
Each lock has a memory of 1 word (1 word = 16 pits), and each word contains a CG code that indicates the type of character, a code that indicates the block number of the character, a pit that indicates whether it is a full-width or half-width character, and a ruby character. By providing a hit representing the designation, from the corresponding character generation circuit,
The corresponding characters can be read out, and full-width characters, half-width characters, and double-width characters can be displayed.

If the CG code accommodates 4096 characters, 12 pits are required to specify it, and the code indicating the character block number requires 2 hits to indicate the 4-lock, #0 to #3. A total of 1 pit is required for specifying full-width or half-width characters, and 1 pit is required for specifying ruby characters, and 16 hits are required for each block of the display screen. Here, this menu is called a screen refresh menu, and one word thereof is called a character block code F.

Regarding the correspondence between character lock codes and displayed characters, (401) in Figure 4 shows the case of full-width characters, and (402) in Figure 4
4 shows the case of half-width characters, and (403) in FIG. 4 shows the case of ruby characters. In Figure 4, the 3rd and 4th bits from the left of the character block code are used to specify one cock number, and the 1st bit from the left is used to select full-width/half-width.
The second bit from the left is used to specify ruby characters. however,
When specifying ruby characters, the pit for selecting full-width/half-width is disabled (
(don't care).

FIG. 1 is a block diagram for displaying characters as described above. (101) is the screen refresh method,
Number of divisions of one display screen (in this case 1536jotsuku) x 1
It has a deployment capacity of one word, and one word includes one pit for a half-width selection signal (102), one pit for a full-width selection signal (+Oa), and two pits (+04) indicating the character "jO block."
12 bits (105) indicating character code (CG code)
, specifies 1 pit (+21) indicating the selection of the same character. The block NO designation signal (104) is further
(106) through CG # O, CG + respectively
1, CCl2, select CG#-8 (107), (1
08), (109), and (110). In the display character pattern storage unit (130), CG #0 (111) to (113), CCl2 (114)
, CG2 (115) to (116), and CCl3 (117). Furthermore, in CCl2, there is a storage unit for half-width character generation (111) and a storage unit for double-width character generation (117).
12), divided into ruby character generation memory section (113), C
Cl2 is divided into a half-width character generation storage section (115) and a full-width character generation storage section (116). The 16-pit character pattern signal (118) selected from the screen refresh method in this way is sent to the parallel-to-serial converter (119).
The signal is converted into a video signal (120) and displayed on a CRT.

The disadvantage of this method is that for kanji whose furigana is one character,
As shown in FIG. 5, the ruby characters are shifted to the left side relative to the kanji characters. Therefore,] by Sihuta,
Document creation in Japanese information processing has had the problem of ruining the aesthetic appearance of the document.

OBJECT OF THE INVENTION The present invention solves the above-mentioned problems of the conventional art, and provides a system that allows users to assign kanji to kanji without sacrificing the aesthetic appearance of illiterate people when creating documents in Japanese information processing. The object of the present invention is to provide a center link device for characters.

Structure of the Invention The present invention provides a display character pattern storage section with double-byte character generation;
It has a memory section for half-width character generation, ruby character generation 1), 1-shihi character generation, and for one ruby character, normal ruby character < turn and ruby character divided left and right. Using three types of character patterns, these are stored in a predetermined memory section of the two II/e character generation memory sections, and further divided into the two ruby character patterns, that is, the normal pattern, and the left and right patterns. A screen refresh menu including two types of information for selecting one of the two types of information, and a screen refresh menu for decoding each storage section of the display character pattern storage section from the information from the refresh screen. With this structure, when a single character of kanji is given as furigana, a ruby character can be automatically placed in the center of the kanji.

DESCRIPTION OF THE PREFERRED EMBODIMENTS The operation of the centering device for a line character according to the present invention will be described below with reference to the drawings.

FIG. 8 is a block diagram of the hardware section of a center link device for ruby characters showing an embodiment of the present invention.

Figure 6 shows the ruby character generation storage section (817) in CG #0 in Figure 8 and the ruby character generation unit (817) in CG-#1 in Figure 8.
This is a display character pattern in which two characters stored in the generation memory (819) represent one ruby character.The left side of FIG. 6 is the ruby character I generation memory (817), and the right side is the ruby character ■.
It is stored in the generation storage unit (819). In addition, the conventional full-width characters (701), half-width characters (702),
As for ruby characters (7oa), as mentioned in the conventional example, C
It is decomposed into G + 0 to CG #3, and each has a storage unit for generating full-width characters (815) and a storage unit for generating half-width characters (81).
6), is stored in advance in the ruby character generation storage unit (817) (in FIG. 8, the name is changed from the conventional example to rujil). As a result, each character can be designated from the character-by-character D-tock code output from the screen refresh method (so i ). The character block code in this embodiment is 2 pits (808) for character type designation (full-width, half-width, ruby ■, ruby ■), 2 hits (802) for block number designation (CG#θ to CG+3),
Consisting of 16 hits consisting of 12 CG codes (804), the D-Tsuku NO designation signal (802) and the character type street arrival signal (80g) are displayed characters through the digit H (sos) and digit coder 71 (806), respectively. A signal line (807) for specifying a display character pattern in each memory section (815) to (822) in the pattern memory section (sgo).
~(8to) and (8+1)~(814).

The selected display character pattern consists of 16 hits of data (8
23), and passes through a parallel-to-serial converter (824) to become a video signal (825).

In the case of Shinkana naming, if there are -C2 characters for one kanji, as before, select the characters shown in (703) in Figure 7 using the character block code, and store the display character pattern in Figure 8. It is retrieved from the ruby character I generation storage section (817) in the section (880) and displayed. As shown in Figure 5, when assigning one ruby character to one kanji, - For example, consider the case where the kanji "ta" is assigned the furigana "ta". , is determined to be one character, and two blocks as shown in FIG. 6 are designated by a character block code from the screen refresh menu (SOl). The left and right characters in FIG.
819), they can be output to the screen by selecting them in order from the left and outputting them as video signals (825).

In this way, ruby characters can be displayed by dividing them into two display character pattern storage units and having two types of character block codes for one ruby character in order to select them. can be placed in the center of a kanji.

Effects of the Invention The ruby character sectoring device of the present invention has two blocks for storing ruby characters in the display character pattern storage section, a screen refresh screen block, and an equalizer block.
By providing the 1 digit]-ta 2, ruby characters can be center-linked, which has a great practical effect.
