Abstract

PURPOSE:To improve the efficiency of composition by constituting such a composition system where composition areas can be vertically changed in accordance with the composed result of original data. CONSTITUTION:A composition processing part 6 actuates a processing execution part 7 based on an instruction stored in a command decoding data storing part 5. Then the part 7 actuates an area production part 8 and decides an area where composition should be produced for the original data by an instruction stored in the part 5 to output a command to display an area for composition to a display processing part 13. An area changing part 14 magnifies or contracts an area already produced by the part 8 in accordance with the command of the part 6. While an area change calculating part 15 compares the size of a composition area with the form result to obtain the magnification/ contraction value of the form area. A data analyzing part 10 performs the form processing into an area decided by the part 8.

The area to be typesetting is displayed on the display device 2 according to a command from the display processing section 13Fi and the area creation section 8. Next, the data analysis section 10 operates, inputs manuscript data from the text data storage section 9, and performs typesetting processing within the area determined by the area creation section 8. Formatted data formatted by the data analysis section 10 is stored in the formatted data storage section 11 by the formatted data storage processing section 12 . At this time, if the formatted data cannot fit into the area, if there is an area that can be formatted next, the formatting process will be performed on that area, and if there is no applicable area, the formatting process will be performed at that point. end. After that, the display processing section 13 retrieves the forme data stored in the forme data storage section 11 and displays it on the display device 2.
Output and display the formatting results.

[Problem that the invention seeks to solve]

Conventional typesetting systems are configured as described above, so it is necessary to determine the area to be typewritten at the beginning of the typesetting process. If the typesetting area is not printed, there is a problem in that it is not clear how large the typesetting area should be created.

This invention was made in order to solve the above-mentioned problems, and it is an object of the present invention to obtain a typesetting system that can enlarge or reduce the size of a previously created typesetting area according to the size of typesetting data. With the goal.

[Means for solving problems]

The typesetting system according to the present invention includes: an area change amount calculation unit that compares the size of the typesetting data subjected to typesetting processing with the size of the typesetting area to determine the amount of expansion/reduction of the area; and the area change amount calculation unit. The typesetting system according to the present invention is provided with an area changing unit that enlarges or reduces the typesetting area based on the determined amount of expansion/reduction. The size of the typesetting data is compared with the size of the typesetting data to calculate the amount of difference between the two, and the area changing unit changes the size of the typesetting area by the difference.

〔Example〕

An embodiment of the present invention will be described below with reference to the drawings. In FIG. 1, the same parts as in FIG. 2 are designated by the same reference numerals. In FIG. The area changing unit 15 is an area changing amount calculation unit that compares the size of the forging area with the forging result to calculate the amount of expansion/reduction of the forging area.

Next, the operation will be explained with reference to FIGS. 2 and 3. FIG. 2 is a flowchart of the program stored in the formatting instruction processing unit 6, and FIG. 3 shows the area under processing of the present invention.
FIG. 3 is an explanatory diagram showing the state of manuscript data formatting data.

First, as a preparation before performing the typesetting process, a typesetting area as shown in FIG. 3a is created by the area creating section 8 in the processing execution section T, and manuscript data as shown in FIG. 3 is prepared. Therefore, in the typesetting area shown in Figure 3 a,
. →The typesetting process is performed in the order of Bo → Co → Do, and the third
Regarding the manuscript data shown in FIG. 3, the data of A1 to D are respectively A shown in FIG. 3A. - It is assumed that the formatting process is performed on each formatting area of Do.

That is, when a formatting instruction command is input from the human-powered device 1, the manuscript data A1 stored in the text data storage section 9 is placed in the formatting area A as in the conventional case. (2nd
At this time, the typesetting data obtained by typesetting the manuscript data A1 is in the typesetting area A. The size is also large, so it can't all fit into the typesetting area (
Figure 3.

C).

Next, the formatting command processing unit 6 determines that the cause of the termination of the formatting process is an area overflow (Fig. 2, 5T2).
, the area change amount calculation section 15 is operated to calculate the amount of enlargement of the forme type area, and the area change section 14 is operated (FIG. 2, Sr1). The area changing unit 14 includes the typesetting command processing unit 6
Typesetting area A according to instructions from. At the same time, the position of typesetting area C8 is changed to area A. It moves downward by the enlarged amount (Fig. 2, Sr1, Fig. 3 d). With the above processing, the formatting processing for one area is completed.

Next, area B. , the formatting process is performed on the original data B1 in the same manner as above. In this case, area B.

Because the properly typewritten result is smaller (Fig. 3, Sr1
), the formatting command processing unit 6 activates the area change amount calculation unit to calculate the area reduction amount (FIG. 2, 5T4), and activates the area change unit 14 to change (reduce) the typesetting area.
Figure 3.

f).

Repeat the above operation until all the manuscript data is typewritten, and end when there is no more manuscript data (Figure 3, g)
.

In the above embodiment, when changing the formatting area, the area is enlarged or reduced downward, but it is also possible to enlarge or reduce the area upward. According to the present invention, the typesetting system is configured so that the typesetting area can be changed vertically according to the result of typesetting the manuscript data, so that it is possible to change the size of the manuscript data if it is not fixed or unknown. The effect is that the efficiency of typesetting is greatly improved, instead of the hassle of performing typesetting once as in the past and then re-creating the typesetting area based on the result.
