Description

1240887 Δ7 Α7 _ B7 V. Description of the invention (1) Reference to related applications The present invention requires a computer of "60/1 5 1, 4 9 5" U.S. Provisional Application "Characters and so on" filed on August 30, 999 On screen ". BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 1. Scope of the Invention The present invention relates generally to the storage and display of computer-based symbols, particularly, but not limited to, the storage and display of computer-based characters. 2 · Explanation of related skills English uses 2 6 letters to form hundreds of thousands of words from left to right, different lengths and combinations. Each letter or group of letters combines ~ sounds. Use these 2 6 letters to form any sink in English. Therefore, computer-based display of English vocabulary only needs to store the image pattern of the English alphabet. The words the reader sees are visible and combined with the vocabulary. This is the writing or printing of the character. In other words, this is the shape of the character. Some other languages, such as Chinese, have a writing system that is very different from the language that makes the system. The most basic unit of Chinese is said not to be the mother symbol 'but a "character." It is usually a symbol of the English vocabulary. Chinese is not the only one using these characters. For example, Japanese and Korean also use characters. Japanese and Korean are derived from Chinese characters. In some cases, they and Chinese characters should read the notes on the back first and write I i I > order a word, 2 6 sink images, and display a letter with a character equivalent to a language character. The paper size printed by the Bureau's Consumer Cooperatives applies the Chinese National Standard (CNS) A4 (210 X 297 mm) 4 1240887 A7 B7 V. Description of Invention () Same. The term "character" used herein refers to, for example, Chinese, Japanese, and Korean characters. The “symbol” used here is a word, a character, or any preset image, including some characters (herein referred to as incomplete characters). The part used here refers to an image (that is, a shape), which is less than a complete image of a character. Different from English, its different vocabularies can be of different lengths, so the size of the occupied area is different. As mentioned above, in a writing system based on characters, all characters occupy a preset size area. The area occupied by a displayed, printed, or written character is referred to herein as the character space. Of course, this character space can be changed in a similar way to changing the font of the English vocabulary. It is said that there may be 50 ’0 0 Chinese characters, including ancient characters and rare people. In the existing system, the display of these characters requires storing a bitmap of each of these characters', where each bitmap includes image information required to display a related character. In other words, each bitmap includes information about a complete image of a related character. The character image seen by the reader is visible and combined with the writing, display, or printing that depicts the character. In other words, this is the shape of the character. Assuming a bitmap size of 2 4 X 24 bits, storing 50,000 characters will require 3.6 million bits of memory. Storing 10,000 characters will require 72.0 kilobytes of memory. Both have considerable memory requirements, especially for handheld devices such as laptops, personal digital assistants, and mobile phones. In addition to displaying complete characters, a character input device also needs to display the size of the paper.

The "5,109, 352" U.S. patent incorporated herein by reference, discloses a character input system including partial character display. Similarly, the "No. PCT / US00 / 00135" international application filed on January 4, 2000, which was incorporated herein by reference by the inventor according to the present invention, "No. W0 00/41062" International Publication "herein referred to as" N 〇 · W〇0 0/4 1 0 6 2 "International Publication), also reveals a character input system including partial character display. In the input system mentioned above, the partial character display includes storage of a bitmap that covers information about the entire partial character display. Therefore, in addition to storing bitmaps of complete characters, these systems also store bitmaps of some characters that can be displayed. For the completion of several of these systems, it is foreseeable that they may even need to store more characters than full characters. As a result, a method and equipment are needed to reduce the amount of bitmaps required for a portion that is not so heavy in addition to the usual complete characters, so as to reduce the memory necessary to store the required bitmaps. The present invention meets this need. Invention 槪 沭 The present invention includes methods and equipment for storing and displaying symbols.

Device for outputting signal from device 100. Those skilled in the art will understand that the output device 1 15 or the memory 2 0 2 may include an image register for holding a digital image of an image to be displayed by the output device 1 15. In a preferred embodiment, the output device 1 15 includes a function matrix display screen. The communication channel 1 2 5 may include one or more busbars or transmission channels, which connect components of two or more devices 100, or connect the device 100 with other devices. Although the input device 11 and the output device 115 shown are separate devices, they can be integrated into an input / output (I / 〇) device. For example, a touch screen can be used as an input and output device. Memory 1 2 0 contains a preset number of bitmaps, which are used individually or in combination to display symbols. Some of these bitmaps do not contain information about the overall image or the complete display of symbols. Instead, each such bitmap contains some of the information shown. In a specific embodiment, each bitmap only has information of one point of the symbol image in space. In another image or display, each bitmap contains Z images showing the symbol image in the symbol space, where Z is an integer greater than 1. In the specific embodiment in which the figure of the Ministry of Economic Affairs and Intellectual Property Office of the Ministry of Economic Affairs and Consumer Affairs Co., Ltd., which contains each image, prints information of Z dots, each bit displays one stroke of information in the character. In other words, the information of a stroke image in the yuan.

It is the information of the character component 'rarely composed alone-W-component' image. In other words, the information of the image. This paper size is in accordance with China National Standard (CNS) A4 (210 X 297 mm) 1240887 A7 B7 V. Description of the invention (8) (Please read the precautions on the back before filling this page) Complete characters. The "component" used here is also a character component, usually composed of two or more strokes, and when it exists alone and its size or structure is different from its "component" state, many "components" form a complete word yuan. For example, when the character of the "Sugi" character is compressed horizontally and the left part of the character space is displayed (as shown in F I G · 5 and 6), it is the "component". However, if it (horizontally shown in F I G · 5 and 6) extends horizontally to occupy the entire word space, then the "component" becomes the character of the word "wood". In another example, the "composition" may be compressed vertically or vertically and horizontally with respect to the character that it is alone. In yet other examples, the composition of "components" is different from the characters that exist on their own. Printed by the Consumer Cooperative of the Intellectual Property Bureau of the Ministry of Economic Affairs through the description here, it will be understood that the storage of bitmaps that represent parts rather than complete symbol images and can be combined to display complete symbols can display a large number of single symbol stores in storage. A lot of storage is required in the required memory for bitmaps. For example, in a 2 4 X 2 4 bit symbol space, only 5 7 6 single image point bitmaps can be used to display the image of any symbol. Accumulate or combine the necessary single-image point bitmaps (5 7 6 bitmap sets) to create the required partial or complete characters. On the other hand, a system that stores bitmaps of 10,000 character images requires a storage capacity of 10,000 bitmaps. In such systems, boosting energy to display 50,000 characters will require 50,000 bitmaps to store the image. The smaller number of bitmaps required in the present invention occupy less space in random access memory (RAM) and more permanent storage media such as hard disks. The memory 1 2 0 can also include a table (as shown in F 1 G · 7. The paper size applies to the Chinese National Standard (CNS) A4 specification (210 X 297 mm) 1240887 A7 B7. Employees ’Intellectual Property Bureau of the Ministry of Economic Affairs employee consumption The cooperative prints V. Invention Description (9), which combines every relevant bitmap or bitmap combination required to display characters. In a specific embodiment, the table combines each character with a bitmap combination, where each bitmap is a single-image dot bitmap, that is, each bitmap includes displaying the character map in the character space Information like the picture points. In other words, each bitmap includes a single image point, which represents a black image point on a white background (or vice versa), where the single image point represents a single image point in the character image. Therefore, each bitmap includes one black dot and 5 75 white dots. Bitmaps without two single image points have black image points in the same position. Moreover, as shown above, the roles of the black and white dots are interchangeable. So, for example, there may be one white dot in each bitmap, while the remaining 275 dots are black. As a result, a white dot is displayed on a black background. Although the above § inch theory refers to white and black dots, it is equally applicable to any other contrasting color pair so that it can be distinguished when displayed. In another specific embodiment, the table combines each character with a bitmap combination, where at least one bitmap represents a stroke image in the character. In yet another embodiment, the table combines each character with a bitmap combination, where at least one bitmap represents an image of a "component" or a group of strokes in the character. In a specific embodiment, the table may have a hierarchical structure. In other words, a character may include related bitmaps representing an image of a "component", which in turn may include related bitmaps representing an image of a stroke. In turn, it may include one or more related single image point bitmaps. . In these specific embodiments, a single image bitmap can be used to form a stroke bitmap, which can be used in turn to form a "component" bitmap, which can be used in turn to form a partial or complete character bitmap.

Description of the Invention (1Q) For each stroke, "component", part of a character or complete character, the stroke, "component", part of a character or complete character The consistency between characters and the bitmap required to form an image can thus be judged in one of several ways. For example, a character can be displayed on the screen or written on a grid. After that, a single image bitmap, single stroke bitmap, and / or single "component" bitmap that forms the character image can be judged. In a specific embodiment, the device 100 may include code for performing the method of the present invention. The code can be stored in the memory 1 2 0. In another embodiment, the device 100 may include dedicated hardware for performing the method of the present invention. For example, the controller 105 may include such specialized hardware to perform the steps of the method of the present invention. Device 100 usually stores and processes digital signals. These digital signals can represent data or code. These digital signals may be persistent, for example where the carrier of the digital data signal is a recording medium. Such recording media include, but are not limited to, fixed magnetic disks, portable magnetic disks, magnetic tapes, optical disc drives, digital video discs, solid-state memory cards, and magnetic optical discs.

Description of the invention () Stroke groups include strokes that are similar to each other. In other words, different strokes used are divided into different groups. Each group is assigned a number for identification The user may, for example, identify the stroke by entering a number corresponding to the stroke group to which the stroke belongs. In a preferred embodiment, the user identifies the forming of the stroke by the stroke order according to the traditional writing to form the character. Strokes of characters, while recognizing a character. As those familiar with Chinese writing know, writing strokes to form a character has a traditional order.

"U.S. Patent No. 5,109,352" and the international publication "No. W 00/41062" disclose preferred embodiments of the above-mentioned input signals. The input signals may also be those used in a speech input system or other input systems for character recognition. US Patent No. 5,109,352 also describes several of these alternative input systems. In another specific embodiment, the input signal may be a sound signal that identifies a stroke group, a partial character, or a complete character. This can be done, for example, using speech recognition software, which combines sound signals with stroke groups, partial characters or complete characters. For example, the user can simply read the stroke group number to identify the stroke group. Similarly, 'for example, the user can say yes or no to indicate whether the displayed partial or complete character is the required partial or complete character. Alternatively, the user may read the relevant number of the displayed item to indicate the selection of the item.

Description of the invention (12) The bitmap combination represents an image. In a preferred embodiment, one or more stroke group identifiers entered by the user compare the stroke group strings stored in the memory for different partial or complete characters. If the stroke group string matches the order of the stroke group number entered by the user, the character or part of the character is selected. For example, if the user recognizes a horizontal stroke, followed by a vertical stroke, a left-falling stroke, and a right-falling stroke 'as the stroke order used to write the desired character, one of the N bitmaps is a bitmap 505 (shown in Fig. 5 and 6). If following the above stroke order, the next two strokes are two strokes falling to the left, then one of the N bitmaps is a combination of bitmaps 505 and 610, and is represented by a bitmap 615. As detailed below, in the present invention, instead of storing the bitmap 6 15 and displaying the image represented by the bitmap, the bitmaps 5 05 and 6 1 0 are stored, and the graph represented by the combination is displayed when necessary. image. "No. 5,109,352" U.S. patent and "No. W 0 00/41062" international publication disclose preferred embodiments of the above-selected characters or partial characters that conform to the stroke order entered by the user . The above reference also depicts some characters. As described above, a partial character used here is an image, and compared to a complete character, it contains less than a complete image. Partial characters range from a dot with only a complete character image to an image with a complete character with one dot removed. However, some characters can include any of the following groups: strokes, stroke groups, "components" or "components" groups. (For example, in FIG. 3, each image individually represented by bitmaps 305 and 3 10 is a part of a character.)

However, in the present invention, there are no corresponding bitmaps of some characters or some characters stored in the memory. Instead, each such character or part of the character has a corresponding bitmap combination. In other words, the combination of two or more bitmaps is used in a single character space to reduce the number of characters that are included. Please read the note on the back, and then display some characters on this page, or display the full characters if necessary. This displays the total amount of bitmaps (information about partial or complete character images) required for all required partial or complete characters. In a preferred embodiment, information identifying a bitmap or a combination of bitmaps of each character or part of the characters that can be displayed is stored in the memory. In a specific embodiment, there may be a table of characters or partial characters and their corresponding bitmaps or bitmap combinations (as shown in F I G · 7).

In such systems, if the bit AX y in the combined bitmap has 1 具有, then a bit AX y in the combined bitmap will have 1 値, where X and y represent bits Coordinates of element A in horizontal and vertical directions. Those skilled in the art will understand that, in this way, the combined bitmap can be logically performed by ORing (OR) all relevant bits used to form the combined bitmap (and Manufactured using the "OR" (OR) operation in Boolean. In a preferred embodiment, the images represented by the combined bitmaps are successively displayed on the output device. Each of the combined bitmaps is retrieved from memory, and the image it represents is displayed in the same character space on the screen. From the display of step 2 15, the procedure depicted in F I G · 2.. Continues to step 2 2 0. In step 220, the device reads the user's input signal, which is typically input in response to the display in step 215. As shown above, the input signal read in step 2 2 0 is not always in response to the step. The paper size applies the Chinese National Standard (CNS) A4 specification (210 X 297 mm) 1240887 A7 V. Description of the invention (15) Enter in step 2 1 5 display. For example, the user may enter a number “g” from step 05, which is before step 2 1 5. The user input signal acquired in step 220 may include the selected one of the remaining stroke recognizers or M images as the complete character to be displayed, or as a part representing the complete character. Some characters. The method of selecting one or more items from a group of one or more items is well known to those skilled in the art. In step 2 25, the device determines whether the user has selected an image or a combination of bitmaps of one of the M bitmaps as a complete character. If the user does not select an image as a complete character, in other words, if the user selects an image, please read the notes on the back first

The page of the Intellectual Property Bureau employee consumer cooperative of the Ministry of Economic Affairs prints an image to represent the complete M images. In that, the device uses the entered input bitmap or bitmap group 2 2 0 to perform the identification step 2 3 0 N in 2 30 identifies that the number of different number of programs depicted may be a part of the character image, or if the user does not select any program, the process proceeds to step 2 30. The input signals read in step 2 3 0 and the previous signals, such as those read in step 2 5 or stepped signals, to identify N combinations corresponding to the input signals. . Step 2 3 0 is similar to step 2 10 except for its input signal. Please note that although N is used in steps 2 1 5 and N, the N in step 2 1 5 need not be the same as the step. In other words, the bitmaps or bitmap combinations of steps 2 15 and 2 30 are possible. Moreover, in F I G · 2, the bitmap or combination of bitmaps identified in different repetitive operations. After step 2 3 0 ', the procedure continues at step 2. If at step 2 2 5 it is determined that the user has selected an image as a complete character, the procedure proceeds to step 2 3 5. In step 2 3 5 this paper size applies the Chinese National Standard (CNS) A4 specification (210 x 297 public love) I order 1240887 fig Α7 Β7 5. In the description of the invention (16) 'The device is the selected character in the character The selected image displayed in space depicts an example of a combination of two bitmaps to display characters, where each bitmap represents a stroke in the character (that is, contains information or data about the image of the stroke). In F I G .3, the bitmaps 3 05 and 3 1 0 are combined to form a combined bitmap 3 1 5. The combined bitmap 3 1 5 shows an image of the characters in the number "ten". Each figure 3 05 and 3 10 stores a bitmap required to display one stroke of the character. The bitmaps 305 and 3 1 0 represent horizontal and vertical strokes in the character, respectively. Therefore, instead of storing a bitmap equivalent to the combined bitmap 3 15 for displaying the character, the bitmaps 3 05 and 3 10 are stored in the memory. Although it initially seemed to increase the amount of bitmaps required to display characters, it actually reduced the amount of bitmaps required to display characters. This is why the bitmaps 305 and 3 1 0 can be used to form a combined bitmap, displaying characters other than the number "ten". As seen in F I G · 3, the combined bitmap 3 15 is the result of adding the bitmaps 3 05 and 3 1 0 together. The combined bitmap 315 can be obtained logically by performing an OR operation on the corresponding bits of the bitmaps 305 and 3 1 0. As noted above, the bitmaps 305 and 3 1 0 each contain information showing the horizontal and vertical strokes of the character. On the other hand, the combined bitmap 315 contains information showing the horizontal and vertical strokes of the character.

Description of the invention (17) 'Bitmaps 405, 410, 415, 420, 425, 43〇, 435, 440, 445, 450, and 45 5 are combined to form a combined bitmap 4 9 0, which represents a symbol ( More specific is a stroke similar to the English letter "L"). For ease of reference, this stroke will be referred to herein as the L stroke. As seen in f I G · 4, each bitmap 4 0-5 to 4 5 5 represents an image of a dot in a character space. So 'not storing a bitmap of all the points of an image containing an L-stroke, but storing bitmaps 405 to 4 5 5 in memory and combining them to form a combined bitmap 490, It contains all the points of the image of the L stroke. As noted above, a 'single image bitmap (that is, a bitmap with a single color point of only one color for the background of another color image point) can be used to form any symbol or character. F I G · 5 depicts a combination of two bitmaps to show an example of a character, where each bitmap represents the "component" in the character (that is, information or data related to the image containing the "component"). In F I G · 5, the bitmaps 5 05 and 5 1 0 are combined to form a combined bitmap 5 1 5. The combined bitmap 515 represents an image of the Chinese character "cedar". Bitmap 5 0 5 stores the bitmap required to display the "composition" 5 06. When it is used as a character, that is, when it occupies the entire character space, it is a "wood" character. The bitmap 5 1 0 represents an image of three strokes (strokes 5 1 1 to 5 1 3) to the right of the character represented by the bit map 5 1 5. Therefore, to display the character, instead of storing a bitmap equivalent to the combined bitmap 5 15, the bitmaps 5 05 and 5 10 are stored in the memory. Although the amount of bitmaps required to display characters seems to be increased at first, the display part and the complete text are actually reduced in paper size.

Description of the invention (18) The amount of bitmaps to be stored. This is why the bitmap 505 can be used to form a combined bitmap, showing many other parts and complete characters other than the character "wood", where "component" 506 is a "component". (Please read the notes on the back before filling out this page.) As you can see in F I G · 5, the combined bitmap 5 15 is the result of adding the bitmaps 505 and 5 10 together. The combined bitmap 515 can be obtained logically by performing an "OR" operation on the corresponding bits of the bitmaps 505 and 5 1 0. As noted above, the bitmaps 5 0 5 and 5 1 0 each contain information showing "composition" 5 0 6 and three diagonal lines 5 1 1 to 5 1 3. On the other hand, the combined bitmap 5 1 5 contains information showing the "component" 5 0 6 and the three diagonal strokes 5 1 1 to 5 1 3 strokes. In another specific embodiment, each stroke in the bitmap 510 may be stored in a different bitmap combined with the bitmap 505 to form the characters shown in the bitmap 515. Therefore, there may be first, second, and third bitmaps representing the first stroke 5 1 1, second stroke 5 1 2, and third stroke 5 1 3, instead of the bitmap 5 1 0 representing all three Strokes 5 1 1 to 5 1 3. These specific embodiments can be used to reveal some characters generated up to the characters represented by the bitmap 515. Printed by the Consumer Cooperatives of the Intellectual Property Bureau of the Ministry of Economic Affairs. For example, the first combination of the bitmap 5 0 5 and the first stroke 5 1 1 can only be used to display the "composition" 5 0 6 and the first stroke 5 1 1 Some characters. Thereafter, the bitmap of the second stroke 5 1 2 can only be appended to the first combination to show some characters that do not contain the “composition” 5 06, the first stroke 5 1 1 and the second stroke 5 1 2. In another specific embodiment, as depicted in F I G · 6, the bitmap 505 may be combined with the bitmap 610 to form a combined bitmap 615. As shown in FIG. 6, the paper size of the bitmap is in accordance with the Chinese National Standard (CNS) A4 specification (210 X 297 mm) --- 1240887 A7 B7 V. Description of the invention (19) 6 1 0 including the first stroke 5 1 1 and the second stroke 5 1 2 images. As also seen in FI g · 6, the combined bitmap 6 1 5 contains the "composition" (please read the notes on the back before filling out this page) 5 〇6, the first stroke 5 1 1 and the second stroke 5 1 2 image. Similarly, a bitmap containing an image of the third stroke 5 1 3 can only be attached to the combined bitmap 615 to display the complete character represented by the bitmap 515. Therefore, in a specific embodiment, the system of the present invention stores a bitmap of "composition" 506 and three bitmaps each representing a stroke 5 1 1 to 5 1 3, instead of storing three partial characters Bitmap and a full character bitmap. The bitmap of "component" 506 can be used to form one of many partial or complete characters including "component" 506. Likewise, one or more bitmaps of the first, second, and third strokes 5 1 1 to 5 1 3 can be used for one of many partial or complete characters containing one or more of the three strokes. The ability to use bitmaps to display many partial or complete characters allows a system that stores individual bitmaps of each such partial or complete character to save significant memory space. Printed by the Consumer Cooperative of the Intellectual Property Bureau of the Ministry of Economic Affairs. In another specific embodiment, bitmaps such as bitmap 5 05 can be compressed using many known compression techniques, because most of bitmap 5 05 and The part of the image that does not contain the "components" shown. This can provide significant savings for uncompressed bitmaps. Known compression techniques include ^ Run Length Encoding "," Huffman Encoding "and" Lemple-Ziv-Welch (LZW) Encoding ". Alternatively, a 12 x 2 4 bitmap may be used instead of a 2 4 x 2 4 bitmap to store "component" images. In other words, in some cases, a 24x24 bitmap can be truncated to form a 12x24 bitmap. For example, a 1 2 X 2 4 point map will be sufficient to store the "composition". This paper size is in accordance with the Chinese National Standard (CNS) A4 (210 X 297 mm) 22 1240887 A7 B7 20 V. Description of the invention (5 0 6 Image because it only takes up no more than half of the 2 4 X 2 4 bitmap.

G describes the use of truncated bitmaps, that is, those dimensions that are smaller than the size of the character space or composite bitmap on this page. In FIG. 9, the bitmap 905 is a 12x24-bit bitmap, including the image of "component" 506, and the bitmap 9 1 0 is also a 1 2 X 2 4-bit bitmap, including three strokes 5 1 1 to 5 1 3 images. As depicted in F I G · 9, the bitmaps 905 and 910 can be combined to form a bitmap 515, which contains an image of the "Sugi" word. In this specific embodiment, the bitmap 5 1 5 is formed by mapping the left half and the right half of the bit map 905 and 9 10 to a 4 X 2 4 bitmap, respectively. The truncated bitmaps 9 0 5 and 9 1 0 are stored in memory at appropriate locations in a character space or an untruncated combined bitmap. The size of the printed bitmap 5 1 5 by the Consumer Cooperatives of the Intellectual Property Bureau of the Ministry of Economic Affairs is the same as the 2 4 X 2 4-bit character space, where each bit map 9 0 5 and 9 1 0 is smaller than a 2 4 X bit character Metaspace (more specifically half of the 24X-bit character space). In another specific embodiment, each of the bitmaps 905 and 910 may have a different size with respect to a character space. For example, the bitmap 905 can be 8 × 24 bits, so it is only one third of the space of 2 × 24 bits characters. The truncated bitmaps 905 and 910 require less memory space than their untruncated bitmaps 505 and 510. Therefore, the specific embodiment depicted in .F I G · 9 requires less memory space than the one depicted in F I G · 5 to store the bitmap. The specific embodiment depicted in FIG. 9 and the system for storing bitmaps representing all partial or complete character images displayed are based on the Chinese paper standard (CNS) A4 (210 X 297 mm) ^ 6 -1240887 A7 B7 Printed by the Consumer Cooperatives of the Intellectual Property Bureau of the Ministry of Economic Affairs V. Invention Description (21) Compared with that, the required memory space for storing bitmaps is even less. As mentioned above, many partial or complete characters share a common "component" (usually the left half) in a specific part of the character space. Therefore, truncated bitmaps representing images of a common "component" can be used to display many partial or complete characters. Similarly, single-map bitmaps can be compressed or represented in a format that requires less memory than the entire bitmap. For example, each single image point bitmap can be assigned a number to specify the position of the image point representing a part of the image. As those familiar with Chinese writing know, there are many characters that share basic strokes. Similarly, there are many characters that share a common "ingredient". For example, there are a large number of characters including "composition" 5 0 6. Therefore, the commonly used "component" bitmaps can be stored in memory and combined to form a combined bitmap representing a large number of different characters. In a specific embodiment of the present invention, a table combines each character with the identification of all single-picture dot bitmaps required to display the character. The character can be identified by a series of group numbers of the strokes needed to form the character. The word: It can also be identified by a digital number, where each character is assigned a digital number for a single year temple, regardless of the group number. FIG. 7 is a table showing the correlation between the three symbols shown in FIGS. 3 to 5 and the corresponding bitmap combinations. As seen in F I G · 7, the bitmaps 3 0 5 and 3 1 0 correspond to the symbol 3 1 5. Similarly, the bitmaps 405 to 4 55. Correspond to the symbol 4 9 0. Finally, the bitmaps 5 0 5 and 5 1 0 correspond to the symbols 5 1 5. The symbols 315, 490, and 515 represent the Chinese numeral "ten", "" stroke, and the Chinese character "shan" respectively.

G g 靑 Note that in order to easily correspond to the examples shown in F I G · 3 to F I G · 5, the above numbers have been chosen to identify the symbols and their corresponding bitmaps. Other ways of assigning symbols and bitmaps can also be used. For example, both a partial character and a complete character can be recognized by a stroke group recognizer of the strokes that make up the partial character and the complete character. Alternatively, the complete character can be identified by its single numeric number. Similarly, bitmaps can be identified by other numbers than those used in F I G .3 to F I G · 5. For example, in a system using 2 4 X 2 4 bitmaps, please read the precautions on the back of each bitmap and then page 1¾. I. Then the number of these bitmaps can be from 1 to £. It will be noted that the combined bitmaps do not need to be all of the same kind. Therefore, for example, a combined bitmap can be combined with one or more singles such as bitmaps 4 0.5 to 4 5 5), one or more single-stroke bitmaps 3 05 and 3 10), and a component "bitmap (eg, bitmap 5 0 5). In FIG. 3 to FIG. 5, the single-picture dot bitmap and single "component" bitmap are 8 X 8-bit, bit, and 2 4 X 24 bits. These dimensions are easy to describe in a preferred embodiment, at least in an untruncated state bitmap, a single stroke bitmap, and a single "component" bitmap. The dimensions are in a preferred embodiment , All of these bitmaps are dots or larger. F I G · 8 is a bitmap that is continuously downloaded so that it can be used in a 7 ° bitmap.

Flowchart of the program shown in the description of the invention (23). In a preferred embodiment, a bitmap is first loaded into the character space. All points are lit here. The program depicted in FIG. 8 is the first bitmap (except for the bitmap that is fully lit, in a preferred embodiment of the present invention, it is first loaded Character space person) after loading the character space, expand it. In step 805, check a first picture point to determine whether it is lit. In step 8 10, if the picture point is not lighted (ie (Off), then the program proceeds to step 8 1 5. In step 8 1 5, check the next picture point. The program proceeds from step 8 1 5 to step 8 1 0. In step 8 1 0, if the picture is clicked Light (i.e. glow), then the program proceeds to step 8 2 0. In step 8 2 0, check that the characters to be loaded are empty Does the timed bitmap require that the dots be turned off. If the answer to the query in step 8 2 0 is no (NO), then the program continues at step 8 1 5. If the answer to the query in step 8 2 0 is yes (YES), then the program continues at step 8 2 5 where the dots are extinguished. The program continues from step 8 2 to step 8 1 5 until all the dots in the character space are checked. The procedure repeats For subsequent bitmaps to be loaded into the character space. Printed by the Consumer Cooperative of the Intellectual Property Bureau of the Ministry of Economic Affairs will note that the above procedure makes it possible to avoid lighting up a dot that was extinguished by a previously loaded bitmap.
