Abstract: A structured document including a first element which includes an attribute that handles values as character strings, and a second element which defines a change of the values of the attribute is acquired. The attribute is extracted from the first element, and the extracted attribute is converted into a child element of the first element. The second element is converted into a third element which defines a change of the values of the attribute converted into the child element. The structured document updated by the conversions is output as a structured document.

Abstract: A deformation information transformation OK/NG discrimination unit determines whether or not it is possible to achieve a transformation equivalent to three-dimensional deformation information by only two-dimensional affine transformation. If it is possible to achieve this transformation, a two-dimensional bitmap generation unit generates a processed two-dimensional graphics image by applying the two-dimensional affine transformation equivalent to the transformation indicated by the three-dimensional deformation information to a two-dimensional graphics image.

Abstract: A coupling with a built-in light source for use with a handpiece body is disclosed. The coupling has a body-side connecting part to be connected to a handpiece body, a hose-side connecting part to be connected to a hose for delivering fluids, the hose-side connecting part connecting to the proximal end of the body-side connecting part, fluid channels extending through the body-side and hose-side connecting parts for communicating fluid lines in the handpiece body with the hose, and a light source disposed in the body-side or hose-side connecting part. The light source is an LED lighting device including light-emitting means having an LED chip, and a circuit board electrically connected to the light-emitting means for controlling the voltage supplied to the LED chip. The circuit board is placed in the body-side or hose-side connecting part.
