摘要:
To implement an efficient user operation by making it possible to set links between a plurality of containers at once by one operation, in a layout control method which sets a link between partial display regions to connect them to each other, the partial display regions receiving assigned data and laying out the data on a page, and adjusts the position of each partial display region on the basis of the data assigned to it, a plurality of links are set for a plurality of partial display regions, the plurality of partial display regions are designated, the position information of each designated partial display region is acquired, and in a case where setting of a plurality of links is instructed, a plurality of links are set for the plurality of designated partial display regions, on the basis of the acquired position information.

A document processing apparatus according to the present invention capable of changing a layout of a document dynamically in accordance with data to be laid out in the document, comprises a storage unit to store a template which contains a plurality of combinations of region information representing a region to lay out data and priority order information representing a priority order associated with the region; and a layout unit which lays out the data corresponding to the region in an order represented by the priority order in accordance with the template and changes a size or position of the region in accordance with the data without invading a region associated with a higher priority order than the region, wherein the template stored in said storage unit contains the priority order information independently for each region information.
摘要:
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.

The present invention provides a layout adjustment method and an apparatus and a program for the same for allowing a size and a layout of a sub-template to be preferably set and an intention of a user who performs the layout to be better reflected according to the size of contents to be affixed in the sub-template in variable data print. The plurality of partial areas, to which data is to be inserted, are linked and work together to calculate their appropriate sizes on the basis of the size of the data to be inserted. Then, a layout representing sizes and locations of the plurality of partial areas in a page is adjusted on the basis of relationship between a size of each calculated partial area and links set for the plurality of partial areas in the basic layout. Each of the partial areas further includes a plurality of smaller areas, which are linked so that the plurality of smaller areas work together to make their sizes variable to make sizes of said partial areas variable.

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.
摘要:
In a layout processing method of dynamically changing the layout of a template having a plurality of containers in accordance with contents data to be inserted in each of the plurality of containers, it is determined whether to change a size of the data area from a standard size in setting the layout so as to adapt the data area to the size of the contents data inserted in the data area. When it is determined that the size of the data area should be changed from the standard size, the size of the data area is determined in accordance with the size of the contents data inserted in the data area. When it is determined that the size of the data area should not be changed from the standard size, the size of the data area is determined by using the standard size. For a data area for which a first layout attribute is set, it is determined that the size of the data area should not be changed from the standard size when the size of contents data inserted in the data area is smaller than the standard size of the data area and the data area is not influenced by a data area associated with the data area by a link.
