Description

[Detailed Description of the Invention] The present invention relates to a chart for form design that can be particularly utilized for designing forms for kanji printers, and more specifically, to easily and accurately position the character frame of a desired point (series) at a desired position. The present invention relates to a chart for form design, which is characterized in that it can be drawn.

Hitherto, the following drawing method has been mainly used to design forms for kanji printers of variable series point type.

i As shown in Figure 1, a large number of horizontal lines 1 are drawn in parallel at every + inch in the vertical direction, and a large number of vertical lines 2 are drawn in parallel at every 1 π inch in the left and right direction, and further along the horizontal lines 1. Using a chart 4 with a scale 3 marked every inch, the left and right dimensions of the character frame are set by the scale 3,
A method of designing a form by setting the top and bottom dimensions of the character frame by measuring them from a scale, and then locating the center of the character frame and drawing the character frame at the desired point at the desired position.

ii. A method of designing a form by creating multiple types of charts that display the size of the character frame for each point, or pasting these charts together to match them.

However, method i above requires a lot of design work time because it is necessary to measure and set the vertical dimensions of the character frame from a scale, and it is difficult to prevent measurement errors, making the design work extremely inefficient. There are bad flaws.

In extreme cases, the character frame may overlap in the vertical direction due to a measurement error in the vertical dimension during the design process using method i.

On the other hand, method ii above also has the disadvantage that it is difficult to prevent dimensional errors from occurring during the matching process and requires a lot of work time.

As a result of research to resolve the above-mentioned difficulties, the inventors of the present invention established a large number of horizontal lines that indicate the vertical center position of the character frame, parallel to each other, and spaced apart from each other by a distance equivalent to the printing line spacing. Created by providing a large number of multiple types of scale lines having various lengths that are integral multiples of each other along the horizontal line at intervals of the basic length in a direction perpendicular to the horizontal line and such that the center of each scale line intersects with the horizontal line. If you use this chart, you can set the vertical dimension of the character frame by the position of both ends of the scale line with the length corresponding to the vertical dimension of the character frame to be drawn, while the left and right dimensions of the character frame can be set by the scale line. This allows you to easily and accurately draw a character frame at the desired point in the desired location without going through the process of taking dimensions from a scale and locating the center of the character frame, and efficiently create forms for kanji printers without dimensional errors. They found that it was possible to make a good product, and based on this knowledge, they completed the present invention.

That is, the gist of the present invention is that a large number of character frame center lines are provided parallel to each other at a distance corresponding to the printing line spacing, and multiple types of character frame tops and bottoms having various lengths that are integral multiples of the basic length are provided. A large number of dimension display/scale lines are arranged along the character frame center line at intervals of a basic length, and are perpendicular to the character frame center line, and the center of each character frame vertical dimension display/scale line is the character frame center line. This is a chart for form design characterized by being provided so as to intersect with the chart.

Hereinafter, the present invention will be described in detail with reference to the drawings.

FIG. 2 shows a form design chart 9 of the present invention.

A large number of character frame center lines 5, 5, . A plurality of first to fourth character frame vertical dimension display/scale lines 6a, 6b, 6C, 6d, and 6e having various lengths are arranged at intervals of the basic length along the character frame center line 5. They are provided in a direction perpendicular to the character frame center line 5 and so that the centers of each character frame vertical dimension display/scale line 6a, 6b, 6C, 6d, and 6e (7) intersect with the character frame center line 5.

Here, the first character frame vertical dimension display/scale line 6a
is 1 inch long, twice the basic length, the second character frame vertical dimension display and scale line 6b is 8 shoulder inches long, four times the basic length, and the third character frame vertical dimension display The scale line 6C has a length of 1 inch, which is 5 times the basic length, and the fourth character frame vertical dimension display/scale line 6d has a length of 1 inch, which is 6 times the basic length. Frame top and bottom dimension display and scale line 6e
are each shaped to a length of 14 inches, which is seven times the basic length.

Also, 70 first to fifth character frame vertical dimension display and scale lines 6a, 6
In b, 6C, 6d, and 6e, both ends of each character frame vertical dimension display and scale line draw a pattern that changes periodically, such as a waveform, and the longest character frame vertical dimension display and scale line. The characters are arranged in such a way that the distance between the characters 6e is 1 inch, so that the 1 inch interval can be determined from the pitch of the character frame vertical dimension and scale line 6e. .

In addition, the vertical dimension of the character frame provided along the center line of the odd-numbered character frame is displayed so that the ends of the character frame vertical dimensions and scale lines provided along the center line of two adjacent character frames do not overlap. The period of the arrangement of display/scale lines and the period of the arrangement of character frame vertical dimension display/scale lines provided along the even-numbered character frame center line are shifted in position.

Furthermore, auxiliary lines 7 are provided parallel to the character frame center line 5 at both positions above and below the character frame center line 5 at distances corresponding to the width of the line spacing between printed lines. A large number of rectangular scale dots 8 are provided along the line 7 at intervals of a distance (for example, one inch) corresponding to the printing pitch of a kana printer.

Figure 3 illustrates how to draw a 1 inch square character frame corresponding to 4 points using Chart 9 above, and as shown in this figure, the 1 inch character frame is the first character frame vertical dimension display. Draw two character frame center horizontal lines 11 passing through both ends of the scale line 6a, and display the top and bottom dimensions of every second character frame and scale line 5a,
5a, 5a, 6b, 6d, 6e, 6C,
By drawing eight vertical lines 12 along lines 6a and 6a, each having the length of the first character frame vertical dimension display and scale line, seven character frames can be drawn.

Next, Figure 4 shows an example of how to draw a 1-inch square character frame corresponding to 8 points.As shown in this figure, the 1-inch character frame has a second character frame vertical dimension display 70 and a scale. 2 parallel to the character frame center line 5 passing through both ends of the line 6b
Draw the horizontal line 11 of the book, and display the top and bottom dimensions of every four character frames and scale lines 6 a, 6 a, 6 d, 6 C,
6a, and six vertical lines 12 having the length of the second character frame vertical dimension display and scale line are drawn along the lines 6a to draw five character frames.

Furthermore, FIG. 5 shows an example of how to draw a 1-inch square character frame corresponding to 10 points, FIG. 6 shows an example of how to draw a 12-inch square character frame corresponding to 12 points, and FIG. This figure shows an example of how to draw a 1 inch square character frame corresponding to 14 points.

Furthermore, FIG. 8 illustrates a method of drawing a printing frame for a conventional kana printer.

As described above, a form for a Kanji printer can be quickly and accurately designed using the form design chart according to the present invention.

Therefore, in the form design chart according to the present invention, the auxiliary lines and scale dots are provided so that the chart can be used both for creating forms for Kanji printers and for normal Kana printers. When the chart is formed as a chart dedicated to creating a form for a Kanji printer, the auxiliary lines and scale lines may not be provided.
