Before embossing raised letters on a target tape which is subjected to embossing of raised letters, written letters are printed based on inputted character information, and also an upside-and-downside identifying information for identifying the upside and the downside of the target tape as seen in the widthwise direction thereof is printed on the target tape. In the emboss-processing section, the upside and the downside of the target tape is detected based on the identifying information. If the target tape is found to have been inserted upside down, the raised letters are embossed in a state of turning the embossing data by 180 degrees.

There are provided a print image-forming method and device. Print image data of a dot matrix is formed in which print portions are represented by positive dots and blank portions are represented by negative dots. Basic image data formed in a manner such that when the basic image data is developed into a dot matrix, a group of image pixels formed by one of a set of positive dots and a set of negative dots is capable of representing a basic image, is read from a memory device. Developed image data item representative of the basic image is formed by developing the basic image data read from the memory device into a dot matrix which is smaller in size than the dot matrix of the print image data in at least one predetermined direction of a vertical direction and a horizontal direction. At least one shifted image data is formed by shifting the developed image data item by units of dots in the predetermine direction, and the print image data is formed by causing the developed image data item and the at least one shifted image data, to be superposed, upon one another, in a manner such that the group of image pixels overrides background pixels.

A character information processor which can be applied to a tape printing device. The character information processor is provided with a read-only memory in which a table containing the levels of alternatives of a menu hierarchical structure set correspondingly to each edition function is stored. When an edition level is selected by an operator by keying, only edition operations, which are available at the selected edition level, are displayed on the screen of a display unit as choices. An example of the function of editing a character string is a function for enabling the restoration of a text, on which an edition operation such as an input operation and a deleting operation has been once performed. This function is implemented by providing a restoration buffer in the processor and by storing a character or a character string, on which an operation is performed, and a cause-for-restoration parameter representing a kind of an operation in the processor each time when an operation such as an input and a deletion is performed, and by performing a restoration operation according to the cause-for-restoration parameter. Further, regarding an operation of editing a printing layout, the processor has an operation of performing a text alignment by converting a full-size space, which is inputted by keying similarly as in the case of an ordinary character, into a half-size space to be treated as a space of a size, which is half of the size of a full-size character, when printing.

A background pattern print image-forming method and device are provided. A plurality of kinds of unit background pattern image data formed of a dot matrix which defines a group of image-forming dots representative of a unit printing portion of a background pattern to be printed on a printing object are stored in a memory device. One kind of unit background pattern image data from the plurality of kinds of unit background pattern image data stored in the memory device is selected as a unit background pattern tile. The selected unit background pattern tile is read from the memory device, and modified to thereby form a different kind of unit background pattern image data from the selected one kind of unit background pattern image data. The different kind of unit background pattern image data is arranged in a manner such that the background pattern is formed, to thereby form background pattern print image data.

The present invention relates to a character information processor having a function of printing an input character string on a print medium. The character information processor of the present invention includes print-instruction issuing unit for issuing a print-halt-instruction-waiting consecutive-print instruction of repeatedly printing a same character string on the print medium until a print halt instruction is issued, and printing unit for repeatedly printing the same character string on the print medium when the print-halt-instruction-waiting consecutive-print instruction is issued. Also, the processor includes print-halt-instruction issuing unit for issuing a print halt instruction of halting the repeated printing conducted by the printing unit, and print halting unit for halting the repeated printing conducted by the printing unit when the print halt instruction is issued.

When stoppage of printing on a tape is commanded, an automatic non-printing feed of the tape equal to the distance between the print head and a cutter is performed to enable cutting of the tape with minimum waste. Additionally the forming of leading and trailing margins on a printed tape less than the distance between the print head and cutter is enabled by providing deceleration and acceleration coupled with print pulse width variation corresponding to tape movement.

The present invention relates to a character information processor in which limitation is imposed on an allowable number of a character string to be printed. The character information processor includes: storage means for storing an address file and a non-address character-string file in the same storage area thereof; an address file management table containing a management number, a registration flag representing whether or not an address file is registered in connection with the management number, address information representing a storage area of the storage means in which the address file associated with the management number is stored, and a proximate flag representing whether or not the address file associated with the management number is edited at the time immediately before the current time; and address file edit managing means for managing and editing the address file and the non-address character-string file which are stored in the same storage area of the storage means while distinguishing them from each other using the address file management table.

Tape printing device 1 is provided with the second and third screen modes M1 and M2, in which the input document and its layout can be simultaneously displayed on the same screen. These modes can be switched by operating layout image simultaneous display key 23. The user can enter a document while viewing its layout image displayed on the same screen to obtain the desired layout. Thus, the present invention provides a user-friendly character information processing device in which the user can enter a document while viewing the layout image on screen to obtain the desired layout.
