  • Patent number: 7650564
    Abstract: A document editing system supports globally editing the tone of an entire Web page without individually working on a plurality of factors characterizing the general effect (tone) of a document file such as a Web page. Upon receipt of an input of an effect (tone) from a user, parameterization occurs for a style tone of a style of a document file, a vector tone of a vector image included in the document file and a raster tone of a raster image included in the document file. A style adjuster then adjusts the style tone, the vector tone and the raster tone in response to the tone input from the user, and a display device displays the document file including the adjusted vector image and the raster image and modified according to the adjusted style.

  • Patent number: 7610355
    Abstract: To transfer web contents to a web server from a computer through a network, a plurality of files composing the web contents are stored in the computer. A processor of the computer then detects files to be transferred from the plurality of files to create a transfer file list table. A transfer priority of the files to be transferred is determined by the processor on the basis of reference relation data of the files to be transferred which are designated in the transfer file list table and file format data of the plurality of files to create a transfer priority list table for the files to be transferred. The files to be transferred are transferred to the web server from a communication controller of the computer through the network by the processor in order of the transfer priority set in the transfer priority list table.

  • Publication number: 20060077494
    Abstract: A document editing system supports editing the tone of an entire Web page at one time without individually working on a plurality of factors characterizing the general effect (tone) of a document file such as a Web page. Upon receipt of an input of an effect (tone) from a user, parameterization occurs for a style tone of a style of a document file, a vector tone of a vector image included in the document file and a raster tone of a raster image included in the document file. A style adjuster then adjusts the style tone, the vector tone and the raster tone in response to the tone input from the user and a display device displays the document file including the adjusted vector image and the raster image and modified according to the adjusted style.

  • Publication number: 20040133417
    Abstract: A machine translation method for specific words and a translation system using the method. A dictionary management unit for managing a dictionary file referred to in a translation creates a temporary dictionary. The temporary dictionary, which is a virtual dictionary file used in a translation process executed during a session, is created when the session begins. A translation processing unit translates a text by referring to the temporary dictionary and other dictionary files. In this process, the temporary dictionary is referred to in preference to a basic dictionary, a user dictionary, and other resident dictionary files.
