Abstract

PURPOSE:To attain even the display of moving picture information and sound information in a document by causing a correspondent storing part to charge the respective input and output of the moving picture information and the sound information and totally executing the editing and displaying both of character information and image information. CONSTITUTION:The image information and character information, which pass through an image reader 2 and a keyboard 3, are stored through an edition processing part 9 and a data reading processing part 7, etc., to a main storing part 4. Then, these information are read and displayed through a display processing part 8 to a display screen 1. On the other hand, a moving picture or a sound from a VTR 10, etc., is processed through a moving picture information storing part 13 and a sound information storing part 14 in the same way. Then, when a correspondent command is inputted from the keyboard 3 in order to reproduce the information to accompany a time change, this command is transmitted to the processing part 7 and the storing parts 13 and 14 are selected. Then, the read data are transmitted through the processing part 7 to the processing part 9 and outputted to the processing part 8 or a sound processing part 15. As the result, the moving picture information and the sound information can be also displayed in the document.

Change the document layout such as deleting, moving, copying, etc. Proofreading 5 characters, rotating images.

This is an editing processing section that performs commonly referred to proofreading and editing processing such as enlargement and reduction.

FIG. 4 is a screen display state diagram showing a display example of a document displayed on the display screen 1 of the conventional document editing device. 42 is an image area frame indicating an area of image information. Text information is as shown in this display example), page frame 41
It is displayed in an area excluding the image area frame 42 within the image area frame 42.

Next, the operation will be explained. The data reading processing section 1 reads document data having area information stored in advance from the main storage section 4 into the editing processing section 9.

At this time, document structure data, character information, and image information are read simultaneously. Next, based on the display target page information of the loaded document structure data, according to the area information,
Character information and image information are displayed on a display screen 1.

In addition, when performing proofreading 2 editing on the displayed document, for example, if you want to add or change characters, use the keyboard 3
Desired character data is input from the keyboard input processing section 6, and the data is processed if necessary.

Furthermore, if image data is to be input, the image information is input via the image reading processing section 5 from the image reader 2 .

Next, the operator performs the desired proofreading/editing action using the keyboard 3.
A command is inputted from , the editing action for the command is performed in the editing processing section 9 , and the editing result is stored in the main storage section 4 in the same way as above.
Redeploy upwards.

Similarly, the document data stored in the main storage section 4 that is the editing result is displayed on the display screen 1 via the display processing section 8 .

This allows the operator to know the editing results for the proofreading/editing actions.

[Problem that the invention seeks to solve]

Conventional document editing devices are configured as described above, so the information that can be expressed in a document is limited, and it is not possible to express sophisticated information that changes over time. This invention was made to solve the above-mentioned problems, and it is possible to express video and audio information that changes over time in a document. The object of the present invention is to obtain a document editing device capable of storing richly expressive documents including video information, audio information, and conventional character information and image information.

[Means for solving problems]

The document editing device according to the present invention handles video information and audio information in the same way as text information and image information, and all input/output of each information is handled by each storage unit corresponding to each piece of information. Text information, image information, video information, and audio information are edited and displayed together.

[For production]

The video information storage unit in the present invention has a function of outputting/inputting the video designated by the data reading processing unit at a designated time or a stored time.
Enables the same handling as text information and image information.

The audio information storage section also has the same function as the video information storage section, so that it can be handled in the same way as text information and image information.

〔Example〕

Hereinafter, one embodiment of the present invention will be described with reference to the drawings. In FIG. 1, reference numerals 1 to 9 indicate respective devices or processing sections having functions equivalent to those of the conventional ones.

Reference numeral 10 denotes a video tape recorder (hereinafter referred to as a VTR) as a moving image information input means and an audio information input means which serve as an input source of moving image information or audio information, and the output thereof is a moving image input processing section 11 or an audio input processing section 12. It is designed to be given to

The video input processing section 11 processes video information input from the VTR 10, and the audio input processing section 12 processes audio information input from the VTRjQ. 13 is a video information storage unit that stores video information input from the video input processing unit 11; 14 is an audio information storage unit that stores audio information input from the audio input processing unit 12; 015 is an audio information storage unit 14; An audio processing section 16 processes the output of audio information stored in the audio processing section 16, and an audio output section 16 outputs audio information from the audio processing section.
