DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION [Field of Industrial Application 1] The present invention relates to a document processing device, and more particularly to a document processing device for creating and editing documents.

[Prior Art 1] In recent years, document processing devices have been equipped with means to search for synonyms and meanings of words in order to enrich the expression of sentences and make them easier to understand when creating documents. This saves the operator the trouble of looking up a dictionary.

[Problem to be solved by the invention 1 When creating a document, when expressing size and height in the text, it is possible to express size and height by using generally well-known values as reference values for comparison. etc. is often expressed. For example, in terms of size, it is expressed as how many times larger than Korakuen Stadium, and in terms of height, it is expressed as how many times larger than Tokyo Tower.

However, in order to make such expressions, the document creator needs to research things such as the size of Korakuen Stadium and the size of Tokyo Tower, and then calculate how many times the numerical value is the standard value. There is.

An object of the present invention is to provide a document processing device that solves the above-mentioned problems.

The character processing device according to the embodiment of the present invention, which includes these components, operates in response to various inputs from the keyboard KB. When input from keyboard KB is supplied,
First, the interwoven signal is sent to the microprocessor CPU, which reads out various control signals stored in the ROM, and performs various controls in accordance with these control signals.

FIG. 3 shows an example of the configuration of a memory KREMMR that stores the name of a reference object used as a reference when comparing metrology, the size of the reference object itself, and the unit in which it is expressed.

The operation of this embodiment will be explained based on the above configuration. FIG. 4 shows an example of a character processing procedure according to this embodiment.

When this process is started by the operator, first, in step Sl, a message is displayed, a character string forming a numerical value and a unit symbol to be subjected to this process is specified from the document memory TEXT, and the numerical part is stored in the memory. MUM
Store at Bt pressure.

Next, the process proceeds to step S2, and the unit portion of the above-mentioned character string is stored in the memory UNIBUF.

In step S3, initialization processing is performed to search a table in the memory KREMMR that stores the name of a reference for metrology, a numerical value representing the size of the reference, and a unit. That is, i=1.

In step S4, it is checked whether the memory UNIBUF that stores the numerical unit to be processed matches the value of UNIT(i) of the i-th record in the memory KREMMR. If they do not match, in step S5,
Add 1 to i and proceed to the fourth record.

In step S6, it is determined whether the search is completed by comparing the number of records stored in the memory KREMMR with the value of i. Even after the search is completed, if no record is found that matches the matching unit, the process ends. If not, the process returns to step S4.

In step S4, the unit to be processed and the matching U
If there is a record with a value of NIT, step S7
Proceed to.

In step S7, N
The value obtained by dividing the value of UMBUF by the value of 5IZE(i), which is the size of the reference object of the record whose units match, is
Store in ULBUF.

In step S8, NAME(i), which is the name of the reference object with the matching unit, and memory MULB1. Transfer the value of IF to an appropriate area of DBUF, which is a display buffer, and display on the CRT the name of the reference object and how many times the size of the numerical value targeted for this processing is of the reference object. death,
This process ends. If there are multiple values with matching units, all of them may be displayed simultaneously or sequentially, or the one closest to the target value may be displayed.

In the above embodiment, the operator specifies the numerical value and unit to be processed by operations such as range specification, but the numerical value closest to the cursor position in the document when this process is started If the unit is automatically processed as a processing target, predetermined operations can be simplified and the same effects as in the above-mentioned embodiment can be achieved.

[Effects of the Invention] As explained above, in the present invention, the number of times the numerical value representing a certain weights and measures is of an appropriate standard is displayed together with the name of the standard, so that it is easy to select the appropriate standard. It saves you the trouble of thinking about it, checking the size of the reference object, and calculating how many times the value you want to express in a sentence corresponds to the reference object, which has the effect of increasing the efficiency of document creation work. .

Furthermore, since the value of a certain weights and measures compared with a reference object can be easily incorporated into a document to be created, there is also the effect that an easy-to-understand document can be created by incorporating this.
