2A and 2B are flowcharts of a method for judging the consistency of an entity document and an electronic document according to a second embodiment of the present invention.

Have a way to buy

The embodiments of the present invention will be described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings and embodiments, and thus, the technical solutions of the present invention can be applied to solve the technical problems, and the implementation of the technical effects can be fully understood and implemented. It should be noted that the various embodiments of the present invention and the various features of the various embodiments may be combined with each other as long as they do not constitute a conflict, and the technical solutions formed are all within the scope of the present invention.

Additionally, the steps illustrated in the flowchart of the figures may be performed in a computer system, such as a set of computer-executable instructions, and, although the logical order is illustrated in the flowchart, in some cases, may be different The steps shown or described are performed in the order herein. Embodiment 1 FIG. 1 is a flowchart of a method for forming an entity document according to Embodiment 1 of the present invention. It should be noted that the physical document in the present invention mainly refers to a paper document (also referred to as a paper document), but it may also be a physical medium such as a plastic or a mixed material sheet on which characters or patterns can be output. The steps of the entity document forming method according to the present embodiment will be described in detail below with reference to FIG.

Step SiOi: Generate an identifier A of the electronic document based on the setting rule based on the electronic document. When a physical document is to be formed, the user can click the print button of the application such as a text editor to print the full text or part of the page. At this time, the content to be printed by the user constitutes the electronic document referred to in this step. Further, the electronic document referred to in this step can also be determined based on the electronic document specified by the user through the control panel of the image forming apparatus. In addition, the user can directly drag the electronic document to be printed out as a physical document into a software interface such as a software window for printout, so that the electronic document that is dragged into the software interface is the electronic document referred to in this step.

The above setting rule may be an algorithm for performing a check function such as a hash algorithm (for example, CRC32, MD5, SHAi), and the formed identifier (identifier A, corresponding to the first identifier) may be an information digest algorithm (MD5) value, and security. A string or special pattern that identifies the inherent information of the current document, such as a SHAi value, a two-dimensional code, or the like.

More specifically, the identification A of the electronic document may be generated according to the setting rule based on the combination of the page data information of the electronic document and any one of the header information, the footer information, or the document editing information. The document editing information herein refers to the editing software environment, editing time, and/or editor-related information of the electronic document. Obviously, the editing of a document includes the creation of a document, the modification of a document, and the like. The page data information is all or part of text and/or picture information of all pages, a specific page or several pages in the page data corresponding to the electronic document. It can be seen that the calculation amount of the process of generating the identification A of the method of the embodiment is small.

Further, this step may be performed by text editing software, tool software, or the like installed in the host, or by driving of an image forming apparatus installed in the host. When executed by text editing software, tool software, etc. installed in the host, it can be suitably applied to a case where the driver function is less. The driver here mainly refers to the driver (driver software) installed on the host computer.

S102: A driver (abbreviated as a driver) of the imaging device installed in the host acquires the identification A, and transmits information about the identification A and the electronic document to the imaging device.

As mentioned above, the identifier A can be generated by the driver itself or by other software. When generated by other software, it is obtained by the driver by receiving the identifier A generated by other software, and the identifier A can also be actively read from other software.

After the identification A is obtained, the driver transmits information about the identification A and the electronic document to be printed out to the imaging device. More specifically, the information about the identification A and the electronic document to be printed out may have many organizational forms, for example, any one of the following forms: identification A or identification A and its format information, and electronic document; The driving of the mounted imaging device is based on the identification A or the identification A and its format information, and the number of outputs to be output synthesized by the electronic document; the driving of the imaging device installed in the host is based on the identification A or the identification A and the format information converted image forming device The format command that can be recognized, and the electronic document; the format instruction that can be recognized by the imaging device converted by the image device A or the mark A and the format information, and the data to be output synthesized by the electronic document, driven by the image forming device installed in the host. The appropriate form can be selected according to the researcher's expertise in a software development platform or the processing capability of the imaging device. In other words, selecting a suitable method can reduce the workload of the developer, or Reducing the performance requirements for the image forming apparatus, for example, the entity document with the identification A can be formed as follows: The driver of the imaging device installed in the host synthesizes the identification A or the identification A and its format information and the electronic document into data to be output, And sending the data to be output to the imaging device, the imaging device receives the data to be output, and forms an entity document of the electronic document with the identifier A based on the data to be outputted. Change, 3⁄4, the way to print the logo on the paper file, the imaging device driver software will identify or identify the logo and its format information (such as position, size, color, font, etc.) to generate the format instructions and logos that the imaging device can recognize. One of the three, the logo and its format information (such as position, size, color, glyph, etc.) and the electronic document are combined, and then sent to the imaging device to print out the paper file.

The synthesis-related processing is performed by the driver above, however, the entity document with the identifier A may also be formed by the imaging device, for example, the driver of the imaging device installed in the host will identify the A or the identifier A and The format information is sent to the imaging device together with the electronic document, and the image device receives the received identifier A or the identifier A and its format information and the electronic document, and obtains and prints the synthesized data to be output. In other words, the imaging device driver software on the host side can directly process the identification or identification and its format information (such as position, size, color, glyph, etc.) into instructions that the imaging device can recognize, and then send it to the imaging device. The synthesizing unit in the imaging device synthesizes the identification or identification of the received instruction and its related information with the electronic document, and then prints out the paper quality file. The above logo will not be inserted into the original electronic document. Of course, the identification or identification and its format information can also be sent directly to the imaging device without pre-processing it as an instruction that the imaging device can recognize.

Step S103: The imaging device prepares an entity document of the electronic document with the identifier A based on the information about the identifier A and the electronic document.

The logo A can be formed (printed) into a paper or the like in the form of a watermark, a string, a picture, or the like. The blank of the medium is formed in a translucent form (emerged) in the physical medium. Users can be flexibly selected according to user preferences or application scenarios of physical documents to maximize user satisfaction.

In addition, the identifier A may be formed in a preset position on the physical medium, for example, the preset position may be a preset position preset by the developer of the imaging device or the driver of the imaging device in the program code, It can be set by the user through a drive interface on a control panel of the imaging device or a peripheral device such as a computer connected to the imaging device.

2A and 2B are flowcharts showing a method for judging the consistency of an entity document and an electronic document according to the second embodiment. The steps of the method will be described below with reference to Figs. 2A and 2B. For convenience of explanation, the same or alternate steps are given the same reference numerals.

Step S201: Form an entity document according to the method described in Embodiment 1.

The timing of forming an entity document may be any time before the following steps are performed. For example, a few days ago or even a few years ago.

Step S202: The identifier B of the electronic document is generated according to the setting rule in the first embodiment based on the electronic document, and the description is not repeated here.

This step is basically the same as the method of generating the identifier A based on the electronic document described in the first embodiment.

In addition, the setting rules in this step are the same as those used to generate the corresponding entity document (to be consistently compared). Preferably, the entity document can be formed according to the process for generating the identification A in the first embodiment.

Step S203: Compare the identifier B with the identifier C obtained based on the entity document to determine the consistency of the entity document with the electronic document (refer to FIG. 2A), or present the identifier B to remind the user to identify the identifier B. A comparison is made with the corresponding identifier in the entity document to determine the consistency of the entity document with the electronic document (refer to FIG. 2B).

When the identifier B coincides with the identifier on the previously formed (formed) printed entity document, it is determined that the electronic document is consistent with the entity document, and vice versa, the electronic document is inconsistent with the entity document. In other words, if the content of the electronic document is inconsistent with the content of the electronic document when the paper quality is printed, the generated identification B is inconsistent with the identification on the physical document.

Optionally, the identifier may be obtained by scanning a corresponding identifier on the entity document. The method for obtaining the identifier C is not limited thereto, for example, may be obtained by taking a photo or the like.

For example, when the logo on the paper file is a special bead pattern that requires professional equipment, such as a QR code. At the same time, '] can first use the scanning device - such as a scanner or a scanner to scan the identification or paper file on the paper document, obtain the identification C and store it in a specific storage unit or present it to the user.

As another example, the user may be presented with an identification B to remind the user to compare the identification B with the corresponding identification in the physical document to determine the consistency of the physical document with the electronic document. It can be seen that the above comparison process can be performed manually or by an imaging device or a program or software on the host side. When executed by a program or software on the imaging device side or the host side, the comparison result is presented to the user by the program or software on the imaging device side or the host side, such as jumping out of the dialog box to display "Matdi", presenting in a specific color, etc. the way.
