Abstract: A recording apparatus for recording data on a recording medium comprises: a recording device capable of moving along a passage through which a recording medium passes and recording data on the recording medium; a conveyance device for conveying the recording medium; a moving device for moving the recording device along the conveyance passage; a driving source; a first transmission device for transmitting the power from the driving source to the conveyance device; a second transmission device for transmitting the power from the driving source to the moving device; and a switch for selectively connecting the first transmission device and the drive source while maintaining the connection between the driving source and the second transmission device.

Abstract: A document processing apparatus comprises: a memory to verify both of the spelling of a word including a syllable hyphen and the spelling of a word including no syllable hyphen; a reading device to read out a word across two lines in the document processing format; a spelling verifier to access the memory and to check the spelling of the word; and a control unit for allowing the spelling verifier to perform the verifying operation at least two or more times on the basis of the result read out from the reading device, for discriminating whether the hyphen in the word across two lines is the permanent hyphen to form a synthesized word or a syllable hyphen, and for controlling the spelling verifier to perform the spelling verification. The memory is a basic dictionary memory in which the correct spelling and correct syllable hyphen position of each word are stored.

Abstract: A document processing system includes a display pattern memory having an address space in one-to-one corresponding with a printable area of a printing unit and a display unit for displaying character pattern dot information stored in the display pattern memory. A superposition determination unit for determining based on a predetermined operation a superposition between a character pattern of a character code read from the character pattern memory and stored in the display pattern memory and a character pattern to be sequentially input while a character print position is designated and an indication unit for indicating the determination result by the superposition determination unit.
