  • Patent number: 7712026
    Abstract: A layout process using content data as output and a template containing regions to which content data is assigned is provided. A document processing apparatus performing the process includes a priority order setting unit that independently sets, for regions to lay out contents data, priority orders by assigning contents data in the regions and a determining unit for determining the size of a region for which a first priority is set. The determining unit uses a template containing the regions and sizes of contents data to be assigned to regions, and determines a size and a position of remaining regions using a portion of the template to which the regions having higher priorities than the remaining regions not laid out and sizes of the contents data to be assigned to the remaining regions.

  • Patent number: 7596746
    Abstract: An information processing technology for efficiently checking layout results for all data records is provided. Variable data input from a data source is assigned to partial display areas contained in a template to determine the size of each of the partial display areas based on the assigned variable data. Specified data for disposing the partial display areas at regular positions in a page is compared with a plurality of items of stored data assigned to the partial display areas to extract an item of data that matches a designated extracting condition. The extracted item of data is assigned to the partial display areas to display a first layout of the partial display areas in the page together with a second layout based on the specified data. The second layout based on the specified data is modified and displayed in accordance with a modification made to the first layout.

  • Publication number: 20050168782
    Abstract: In determining the layout of a page on the basis of layout information representing the intra-page layout of a plurality of containers in which images based on assigned data are visually drawn, the layout information has designation information to designate whether to zeroise the container size when data assigned to the container is empty. In adjusting the layout, a container to which empty data is assigned is detected from the plurality of partial regions. It is determined whether designation information corresponding to the detected container is designation to zeroise the size. If zeroisation is designated, the layout of the page is adjusted while regarding the size of the detected container as zero.

  • Publication number: 20050172224
    Abstract: This invention provides a layout adjustment method of determining the layout of a page on the basis of layout information representing the intra-page layout of a plurality of partial regions in which images based on assigned data are visually drawn. In the layout adjustment method, the layout information contains, for a region set in which a plurality of partial regions arrayed in a predetermined directions are grouped, the total size in the predetermined direction and the flexible range of the distance between the partial regions. The layout information and data corresponding to each partial region are acquired from a memory. For each of the plurality of partial regions included in the region set, a size suitable for drawing the assigned data is calculated. At least the distance between the partial regions is changed within the flexible range on the basis of the total size and the calculated size of each partial region, thereby adjusting the layout of the region set.
