Abstract

The present invention is a simple optical font and symbol input method. After the user uses a pen to draw the bit map for creating any font or symbol that the user wants to input on a default simple optical font reader (SOFR) sheet, the SOFR sheet will be fed into an optical reader for scanning recognition and the bit map for creating the fed-in font or symbol can directly be memorized in the optical reader. Therefore, without requiring enormous software and hardware resources, a convenient and simple input method is provided to the user for creating fonts or symbols on an optical reader.

Description of the invention (丨) Background of the invention <The Garden of Invention> The invention relates to a simple optical font and symbol input method, especially an input form using a preset simple optical font and symbol , Draw the dot pattern of the text or symbol you want to input and create on it, and feed it into the optical reading device for scanning and recognition, then you can directly read the dot image in the optical reading device, and add Μ memory establishes the glyphs that feed the text or symbols. Μ provides users with a simple and convenient glyph or symbol input method, which can easily create fonts or symbols on optical reading devices, and further overcome traditional optics. Readers (such as facsimiles) who have difficulty entering characters or symbols due to the lack of large-capacity memory space and relatively complicated hardware and software. 〈Overview of previous skills〉 Printed by the Consumer Cooperative of the Central Standards Bureau of the Ministry of Economic Affairs (Please read the notes on the back before filling in this page) With the rapid progress of the times and the rapid development of business, technology has also leapt forward. Constantly responding to increasing innovation, the current electronic instruments on the market for inputting text or symbols require basic resources that require complex operating software and systems, a certain input chain method or complex handwritten image recognition. System, together with the built-in huge text or symbol library, can only achieve the input or use of text or symbols; therefore, the overall input of the text or symbols requires high quality software and hardware support. The more complicated mechanisms are matched, and the manufacturing cost is also increased invisibly. Therefore, for general simple optical reading devices (such as fax machines), most of them are lack of huge software, font memory and hardware (keyboard, handwriting recognition system). ), And cannot use the above-mentioned traditional input method to apply the Chinese National Standard (CNS) Α4 specification (210X 297 mm) to the paper or script paper size. The Central Consumers ’Bureau of the Ministry of Economic Affairs ’s consumer cooperation printing 519600 A7 ______B7________ 5. Description (&Gt;) for input, causing trouble for the user. Considering that the conventional input method still has the above-mentioned shortcomings', the creator of this case has studied the way of improvement to address this deficiency, and finally has the invention of this invention. <Summary of Creation> The present invention is based on an ordinary optical reading device 'using a pre-designed simple optical font and symbol input form (Simple Optical Font Reader (SOFR) sheet), according to the user's request To enter the created text or symbol, M pen draws a bit map of the font or symbol on the input form (SOFR sheet), and then feeds the drawn input form (SOFR sheet) into the optical reading Scanning of the optical reading mechanism in the device enables the image of the fed-in glyph or symbol to be built directly in the mechanism and added M note, so that it is not necessary to use huge software and hardware support. To provide users with a simple and feasible optically-readable text or symbol input method, which is the main object of the present invention. As for the detailed structure, application principle, function and effect of the present invention, please refer to the descriptions of the following drawings for a complete understanding; <Simplified description of the drawings> Figure 1 is a schematic diagram of the input form of the present invention . FIG. 2 is a schematic diagram of a read processing state of an input form of the present invention. FIG. 3 is a schematic diagram of the operation flow of the input method of the present invention. FIG. 4 is a schematic diagram of an application example of the present invention. 〈Comparison of component numbers and names in the drawings〉 1 * · * Input form 1〇 * · Interval ______________________- — --------------This paper size applies to China National Standard (CNS) Α4 Specifications (210 × 297 mm) (Please read the precautions on the back before filling this page), 1T 519600 A7 B7 V. Description of the invention (multiple) 1 1 * • Dot matrix pattern 1 2 · • Black anchor point 1 3 · • White locating point 2 * Optical reading device <Description of the preferred embodiment> Please refer to the drawings. The present invention mainly includes a simple optical device with a scale grid point interval 1 on it. Font and symbol input form "Simple Optical Font Reader (SOFR) sheet" 1 ", no text or symbol created by the user to input * M pen on the input form (SQFR sheet) 1 draws the desired font Or bitmap 1 or 1 of the symbol, and then lock the drawn input sheet (S0FR sheet) 1 into an optical reading device 2 (such as a fax machine) for optical scanning. The optical reading device 2 will first feed in the input form 1 Within the limited length, confirm whether the input form 1 has a valid starting point of the dot matrix image. If it is not found, throw it into the input form 1. Otherwise, if it is within the limited length, it has been determined to have the image start Locate the point, continue to start the font or symbol processing program; Printed by the Consumer Cooperatives of the Central Standards Bureau of the Ministry of Economic Affairs (please read the precautions on the back before filling this page) The font or symbol processing program can be checked for legality first The black anchor points 12 on the two ends of Form 1 are processed and recorded with the word points at the same horizontal level as the black anchor points 12. After the processing of the same horizontal word points is completed, the check on the two ends of Form i is further checked. White anchor point 1 3, and the word points with the same level as the white anchor point 1 3 are processed and recorded. In this way, iterative detection is performed. After all the word points on Form 1 are processed, the reading of the desired font or symbol is completed. Dot matrix value, and then directly memorize the dot matrix of the font or symbol. The paper size is applicable to Chinese National Standard (CNS) A4 specification (210X297 mm) 519600 Α7 Β7 V. Description of the invention (noon) Value in light Learn to read the memory of device 2 meat; then, when using the font or symbol again, 'just go to the memory address of the font or symbol to take out the value of the dot matrix. · With this input method, Without the need to use huge software and hardware to support, it can provide users with an input method for directly and easily creating text or symbols on optical reading devices. Based on the above, it can be seen that the simple optical Chinese and English font and symbol input method of the present invention does have the characteristics of convenience and simplicity, and does not require the use of huge software and hardware to support the application. The shortcomings are very clear, and the creation of this case has not been seen for public use. It is in accordance with the provisions of the Patent Law, and has filed an application for an invention patent in accordance with the law. Those who need to know, M is a preferred specific embodiment of the present invention. If the changes made according to the concept of the present invention, the functional effects still do not exceed the spirit covered by the description and drawings. Within the scope of the present invention, Chen Ming is here. (Please read the notes on the back before filling this page)
