Abstract

PURPOSE:To improve a condition to use by inputting a mark sheet, in which the information of the opposite party of a communication or the like is previously written, together with a written message. CONSTITUTION:A sender writes the information of the opposite party of the communication in the mark sheet beforehand. For the input request of the written message from a facsimile communication processing device 2, the sender inputs the mark sheet at first and sequentially the written message from a facsimile terminal 1 in a said order, and transmits them to the facsimile communication processing device 2. A facsimile communication processing device controlling part 201 recognizes the information of the opposite party of the communication, inputted from the mark sheet, by using a recognizing part 203, and the facsimile communication processing device controlling part 201 lays-out the recognized information of the opposite party of the communication in the form of a table by using an editing part 204. The facsimile communication processing device controlling part 201 transmits the written message, including the newly laid out (with the written information of the opposite party of the communication) table or the like.

Description

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION (Technical Field to which the Invention Pertains) The present invention relates to a facsimile communication processing method for transmitting messages via a communication network using a facsimile terminal or a composite terminal equipped with a facsimile.

(Prior Art) FIG. 4 shows an outline of the configuration of this type of conventional facsimile communication processing system.

1.3 is a facsimile terminal, 2 is a facsimile communication processing device, 4 is a communication network consisting of an exchange system, etc., 201 is a facsimile communication processing device control unit, 202 is a subscriber file, 401, 402, and 403 are the facsimile terminal and facsimile A communication line that connects communication processing devices.

As an example, from facsimile terminal 1 to facsimile terminal 3
An outline of the operation is shown below for the case where a message is delivered to a person.

First, a caller operates the facsimile terminal 1 to make a call and connects to the facsimile communication processing device 2 via the communication network 4 .

At this time, the facsimile communication processing device control unit 201 reads the calling terminal information from the subscriber file 202 and checks the calling qualifications and the like. If the verification result is correct, the facsimile communication processing device 2 requests input of communication destination information (communication delivery optical information).

The caller enters communication partner information from the facsimile terminal 1. The facsimile communication processing device 2 searches the subscriber file 202 using the communication partner information as a key and reads out the receiving terminal information. After identifying the called terminal based on its called terminal information.

Accepts correspondence to be delivered.

On the other hand, the facsimile communication processing device 2 calls the facsimile terminal 3 that is the other party's terminal and delivers the message to the corresponding terminal, or the facsimile communication processing device control unit 20
After accumulating the message in a specific mailbox included in 1, the destination terminal, facsimile terminal 3, is notified that the message has been received, or the destination terminal, facsimile terminal 3, makes a call. By notifying that the message has arrived at the time, when there is a request to retrieve the message from the facsimile terminal 3, the message is sent after checking the retrieval qualification.

The facsimile terminal 3, which is the receiving terminal, outputs the received message to a facsimile, stores it in a storage device,
The recipient received the message by displaying it on a display device.

In such a facsimile communication processing method.

Normally, in order to avoid misdelivery or to identify the recipient of the delivery light, one handwritten message delivery address is superimposed at the beginning of the message, or the page displaying the delivery light is placed at the top, as shown in Figure 5. In many cases, it is specified clearly in the

FIG. 5 shows an example of a conventional communication partner information entry form.

For this reason, there were drawbacks such as information other than the original message being superimposed and the original message being smeared, and a standard sending format being created.

(Object of the Invention) An object of the present invention is to solve these problems and realize an easy-to-use facsimile communication processing system.

(Structure and operation of the invention) The main feature of the present invention is that information such as communication partner information is input using a mark sheet, and will be explained below based on the drawings.

FIG. 1 is a diagram showing the configuration of an embodiment of a facsimile communication processing method according to the present invention.

The configuration in Figure 1 is basically the same as the configuration in Figure 4, but
The difference is that a recognition unit 203 and an editing unit 204 are added to the communication processing device.

FIG. 2 shows an example of a mark sheet used in the present invention.

First, the five callers fill in communication partner information in advance on a mark sheet as shown in FIG.

The operations from when the caller operates the facsimile terminal 1 to make a call and when the facsimile communication processing device 2 requests input of a message are the same as those described in FIG. 4.

In response to a request to input a message from the facsimile communication processing device 2, the sender first inputs the mark sheet and then inputs the message from the facsimile terminal 1 in the order of the message, and transmits it to the facsimile communication processing device 2. The facsimile communication processing device control unit 201 uses the recognition unit 203 to recognize communication destination information input from the mark sheet. The facsimile communication processing device control unit 201 uses the editing unit 204 to lay out the recognized communication partner information in a table format as shown in FIG.

FIG. 3 shows an example of the output of a message according to the present invention.

The facsimile communication processing device control unit 201 delivers a message including a newly laid out table (in which communication destination information is written).

The subsequent explanation of the operation is the same as that of FIG. 4.

Note that when laying out communication partner information etc. in a table format, the information to be embedded in the table etc. may be pattern information before recognition, or may be pattern information newly generated from the recognized results.

In this embodiment, a case has been described in which the recognition section is installed in the facsimile communication processing device, but this method can also be easily implemented by installing it in the facsimile terminal 1.

(Effects of the Invention) As explained above, according to the present invention, by filling in the communication partner information etc. on a mark sheet in advance and inputting this mark sheet together with the communication from a facsimile, one original communication can be sent. Communication destination information can be sent without being mixed up with other documents, and it is automatically laid out and delivered in table format, etc., and text can be changed from handwritten format to printed format for a cleaner appearance. .

Furthermore, by using the same mark sheet for frequently communicating parties, it is possible to eliminate the inconvenience of writing communication partner information in correspondence each time.
