Abstract

PURPOSE:To easily know the size of transmission data by displaying a character of the size corresponding to a designated reading density. CONSTITUTION:A main control part 3a has a function for controlling a display character data memory 8b, a display part 5b has a function for displaying the character of different size by the control of a display control part 6a and the display character data memory 8b stores character data of the size according to the designated reading density. When the reading density is selected and designated, the character data is read based on the reading density designated by the display character data memory 8b, displayed on a character data display part 5b and an original 1 is read in the designated reading density and transmitted. In such a way, the character of the size correspond according to the designated reading density is displayed, so that the character of the size which can be actually transmitted can be recognized on a screen.

Description

[Detailed Description of the Invention] [Summary] A method for displaying reading density of a facsimile (hereinafter referred to as FAX) device, comprising a display means for displaying characters of different sizes, and a character size corresponding to the type of reading density. By providing a storage means in which display character data of is stored,
Specified read density.

The size of the transmitted data can be easily known by displaying characters of a size corresponding to the size on the display means.

[Industrial application field]

The present invention relates to a method for displaying a specified reading density of a FAX device, and particularly to a FAX device that can display characters in a size corresponding to the reading density.

In recent years, FAX communication, which uses communication lines to transmit documents, graphics, etc. to remote locations, has become problematic. In FAX communication, image data read from a document on the sending side is transmitted as an electrical signal, and the receiving side records the data on recording paper to reproduce the document.

On the sending side, the reading density, that is, the number of reading dots per unit dimension (8) and the number of reading lines (9), is defined in accordance with the size of the characters on the document, for example, about 3 types, and these are selected and read. There is a need for a method that can recognize the size of characters that correspond to the reading density during transmission.

[Conventional technology]

Figure 1! , Z F' , to show the X device j7. In FIG. 6, the reading section 2a reads the original 1 with an image sensor (not shown) and reads the image data in one step.
It has the function of converting.

The main control section j3 performs sequence control of transmission and reception, and has the function of controlling each section j2 and storing the destination telephone number, etc. input from the Iji production section 1. Function to perform the pre-transmission procedure by calling the destination phone number 1. Performs reading based on the specified reading density, displays the reading density, converts the read image data into a digital value, compresses it, and converts it to image data. The memory Bi performs functions such as storing 17, immediately transmitting (or transmitting at a predetermined time), and decompressing and recording received image data, etc.

The reading control unit 94i controls the reading unit 2a to perform reading from the original I after reaching the specified reading density (1).

The recording unit 10 has a printer that prints out received image data and the like.

Then, character data corresponding to the specified reading density is read out from the front character data memory 8a, for example, ``large character'', and is displayed on the display section 5aC. The image data is read at a reading density of Then, under the control of the transmission control unit 11, the signal is modulated by the modem 12 and sent out to the line toward the receiving station via NC[+13.

The display indicating the reading density on the display section 5a continues until the reading of the original 1 is completed.

In the case of automatic transmission, the automatic transmission unit 14 calls the receiving station at a predetermined time and sends the set document 1.

Therefore, there is a problem in that it is not known how large the characters will be at the actual reading density.

[Means for solving problems]

FIG. 1 shows a block diagram of the principle of the present invention.

In the figure, 5 is a display means for displaying characters of different sizes, and 8 is a storage means in which display character data of character sizes corresponding to the types of reading densities are stored.

Therefore, the display character data read out from the storage means 8 is displayed based on the designated reading density.

[Effect]

When the reading density is selected and specified, display character data of a character size corresponding to the type of reading density is read out from the marking means 8 and displayed on the display means 5 in a character size corresponding to the reading density. (See FIG. 3) Since the size of the displayed characters corresponds to the reading density in this manner, the reading density of the transmitted characters can be recognized. Also, when selecting and specifying, it is also possible to compare the displayed characters and the original characters.

〔Example〕

An embodiment of the present invention will be described below with reference to FIGS. 2 and 3. For the purpose of illustration, the same reference numerals refer to the same objects.

In FIG. 2, the main control section 3a has a function of controlling the display character data memory 8b in place of the control of the display character data memo 'J8a, which is the function of the main control section 3 explained in the conventional example.

The display section 5b has a function of displaying characters of different sizes under the control of the display control section 6a, and is composed of, for example, an LCD display.

The display character data memory 8b is a memory that stores character data of a size corresponding to a designated reading density. For example, as shown in Figure 3, when the reading density is low, large character data is stored, when the reading density is high, small character data is stored, and when stacking, medium-sized character data is stored. ing.

Since it has such a structure and function, the operation will be explained next. First, when the operator selects and specifies the reading density based on the size of the characters on the document 1, the reading density is selected from the display character data memory 8b. Read character data. This data is character data whose size corresponds to the reading density.

The character data is displayed on the display section 5b, and the document I is read at a specified reading density and transmitted.

In this way, the characters are displayed in a size that corresponds to the specified reading density, so that characters of a size that can actually be transmitted can be recognized on the screen.

〔Effect of the invention〕

As explained above, according to the present invention, the size of the displayed characters corresponds to the reading density, so the reading density of the transmitted characters can be recognized, and when specifying selection, the displayed characters and the original characters are compared. This has the advantage that it can also be operated by
