Description

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION The present invention relates to a character processing device capable of performing insertion editing.

Conventionally, when inserting data such as an address book into a predetermined format such as an address on a postcard, there have been devices that are controlled to help edit the usage basis.

However, when inserting character data whose size is not standardized, for example, when inserting insert data into an appropriately partitioned table, it is necessary to consider the number of characters per line when inputting data.

The purpose of the present invention is to provide a formatter for insertion data,
It is an object of the present invention to provide a character processing device which compensates for the above-mentioned drawback by changing the character to +T.

Another object of the present invention is to provide a character processing device that facilitates insertion work by displaying the size and format of insertion data suitable for the data to be inserted, regardless of the format of the data to be inserted. It is.

Another object of the present invention is that the format of the merged data that matches the data to be merged can be visually checked, so that it is possible to create a document that is intuitively beautiful, rather than editing the data while considering the number of characters per line. It is an object of the present invention to provide a character processing device that facilitates the processing of characters.

Another object of the present invention is that labels of any size and format can be created, and by registering them, the work of creating the same format many times is eliminated, and by selecting a label, It is an object of the present invention to provide a character processing device that obtains a desired format.

Hereinafter, one embodiment of the present invention will be described with reference to the drawings.

The pi diagram is a diagram showing the character processing device of the present invention. Here, 1 is a keyboard, and this keyboard 1 is provided with a plurality of keys for inputting characters such as alphanumeric characters and symbols, and keys for activating label control and inputting various information. Reference numeral 2 denotes an encoder for converting key information input by pressing any key on the keyboard l into a corresponding code signal. 3 is encoder 2
This is a knee 1 discriminating unit that discriminates whether the encoded signal is a label control and information code or various codes for document creation and editing. 4 is a word processor control unit that starts control when the knee I/discrimination unit 3 determines that the character code for document creation/KRt=, centering 2 underline, cursor non-activity, or other control needs. Yes, insertion, deletion, and other document creation/
Perform editing processing. Reference numeral 5 denotes a label control unit that performs control when the code discrimination unit 3 receives an input related to label control. The label control unit 5 determines whether to register the size of the designated label or to read out the size of the designated label. 6 is a label registration control section, and 7 is a label readout control section. Both are determined by the label control unit 5, and fl, l! are sent to the label registration control unit 6 when registering the specified label size, and to the label readout 1 control unit 7 when reading the specified label size. control will be transferred to you. 8 is a label information buffer, and when registering a label control unit, the information is stored therein. The label information is 8a as shown in Figure 2.
The label number is set in 8b, the maximum number of characters in one line of the label indicated by 8a is set in 8C, and the six maximum number of lines of the label indicated by 8a is set in 8C. When the label registration control section 6 is given control by the label control section 5, it refers to the label information buffer 8 and registers the label format in the label number temable 9. As shown in FIG. 3, the label number table 9 can store the label number, maximum number of characters, and maximum number of lines. For example, for 9a, the label with label number O is 17 characters x 7
Indicates that it is a row label. Further, 9b indicates that the label number l is unregistered. Since the format is created based on the label information stored in the label number table 9, various formats that match the data can be obtained. Note that since the table 9 is constituted by a read/write memory, it may be a memory having a capacity that can store one piece of label information.

The label registration control section 6 will now be described in detail with reference to FIGS. 4-1 and 4-2. FIG. 4-1 shows the state of the label information buffer 8 that stores input label information. The label registration control unit 6 refers to this information and sets it in the label number table 9. FIG. 4-2 shows the state of the label number table 9 after the information shown in FIG. 4-1 is set in the label number table 9.

Next, the label readout control section 7 will be explained in detail with reference to FIGS. 5-1 and 5-2. FIG. 5-1 shows the state of the label information buffer 8 in which the requested label number is set. This information is sent to the label reading control unit 7.
refers to obtain label information from the label number table 9. The information is stored in buffer 10. For example, 15
-1 The label information buffer 8 is set as shown in the figure,
Assuming that the label number table 9 is set as shown in Figure 5-2, the label information is label number 1, maximum number of characters 10. The maximum number of lines is 5. That information is in buffer 1
Sent to 0.

The control process when reading a label is shown together with Fig. 156. First, in step S61, the label information/header 8 is set.
The requested label number in the label number table 9 is searched based on the entered label number. In step S62, it is checked whether the requested label number is in the label number table 9. If there is, proceed to step S64, and calculate the number of characters (2 lines) from the label with the label number (11.).If there is not, proceed to step S63.
Proceed to , and set the number of characters of label number O, 2 lines, as the default. After that, the process advances to step S65. In step S65, the size of one label for the obtained number of characters and nine lines is created as shown in FIG. 7 and stored in the buffer 10.

The display control section 11 displays the contents of the buffer 10 on the display part 13 with reference to the character generator 12. FIG. 7 shows the state of the display section 13 after the label reading control section 7 is executed. 13a is a left margin, 13b is a right margin, and 13c is an indent, and the area surrounded by the indent is the size of the label. For example, FIG. 7 shows 5 lines x 10 characters.

As explained above, according to the present invention, by providing a means for changing the format of the inserted data, the format of the inserted data is harmonized with the data to be inserted!・The effect of being able to create . Furthermore, since a formant once created can be registered in the label number table 9, the work of creating the same format many times is omitted, and at the same time, the effect of easily selecting a suitable format from the formats once registered is achieved. .
