Abstract

PURPOSE:To improve the operability of a device by displaying the range of picture processing corresponding to the input original size designated on a picture display part. CONSTITUTION:A picture input part consists of a light source 2, an image sensor 3, and an original designating switch 4, and an original is read in the range corresponding to selection of the switch 4, and picture data is stored in a picture memory of a control part 5 and is displayed on a picture display part 6. In case of enlargement processing, the range of the hole of the picture is displayed in accordance with selection of the switch 4, and the range of the enlargement object in said range is designated, and a picture generated by the picture processing is stored in an external picture storage part 8.

Description

[Detailed Description of the Invention] [Field of Application of the Invention] The present invention relates to an image processing device, and in particular, image processing suitable for specifying an image range during image editing such as image enlargement, reduction, and cut-and-paste two-composition. It is related to the device.

[Background of the invention]

As described in Japanese Unexamined Patent Application Publication No. 57-16'4365, conventional image processing devices perform processing such as cutting out an image by a computer, nine rotations, enlarging, reducing, black-and-white inversion, etc., and store an area for two images. A memory was provided for each image, and the memory was efficiently used for each image to transfer image data and edit the images.

However, this relates to the procedure and method of image editing, and does not take into account the display designation of an entire image.

However, some manuscripts include a variety of miscellaneous documents, such as those of different sizes, vertical/horizontal writing, characters/figures, and photographs. When performing image processing on such a document, the image must be enlarged if the entire image cannot be displayed.

When cutting and pasting or compositing multiple originals, a problem arises in that it is not possible to specify a range.

[Purpose of the invention]

The purpose of the present invention is to solve such conventional problems, and when creating a single document by enlarging an image or combining two or more documents by cutting and pasting, it is possible to It is an object of the present invention to provide an image processing device that can specify specifications, improve the operability of the device, and perform highly accurate image processing.

[Summary of the invention]

In order to achieve the above object, the present invention includes an image input section for inputting image data, an image display section for displaying the image data, an image storage section for storing the image data, and a control section for controlling these. The image processing apparatus is characterized in that the image input section is provided with means for specifying an input document size, and the image display section is provided with means for displaying a range of image processing according to the specification means.

[Embodiments of the invention]

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

FIG. 1 is a schematic configuration diagram of an image processing apparatus showing an embodiment of the present invention.

In the figure, l is the original that is edited by enlarging, reducing, cutting and pasting images, etc., 2 is the light source that illuminates the original, 3 is the image sensor that scans the original, and 4 is the original size specification switch. , 5 is a control unit that performs image editing processing, 6
Reference numeral 8 indicates an image display unit that displays image data, 7 a digitizer (mouse) that specifies an image range, and 8 an image storage unit that stores image data.

FIG. 2 is a comparison diagram between a conventional image range specification diagram and an image range specification diagram according to the present invention. Here, FIG. 2(a) is a conventional image range designation diagram, and FIG. 2(b) is an image range designation diagram according to the present invention, which displays the entire image range. In this figure, numeral 9 indicates the image range of the enlarged light, 10 indicates the image range of the enlarged light, and 11 indicates the entire image range.

The operation will be explained below with reference to FIGS. 1 and 2.

Original l is light source 2. Image sensor 3. An image input unit consisting of a document size designation switch 4 reads the range according to the selection of the document size designation switch 4, and the image data is stored in the image memory in the control unit 5 and displayed in the image display unit 6.

0 is specified as shown in FIG. 2 (,), but since the entire image range is unclear, the range specification position must be found multiple times. Therefore, in this embodiment, as shown in FIG. 2(b), the size designation switch 4 of the original l
Since the entire image range 11 is displayed according to the selection, the enlargement destination box [10] can be easily specified within this display. Of course, the display shape of the image range 11 is free. The image created by image processing is stored in an external image storage unit 8.

In this way, according to this embodiment, the entire image box ntt is displayed on the single image display section 6.

You can easily specify the image range even for originals of different sizes, vertical writing, and horizontal writing. This allows for highly accurate,
Beautiful image processing, in other words, the creation of beautiful documents.

〔Effect of the invention〕

As explained above, according to the present invention, when creating a single document by enlarging an image or combining two parts by cutting and pasting from multiple originals, it is possible to easily specify the enlargement range and two combination range of one image. This makes it possible to improve the operability of the device and to perform highly accurate image processing.
