Device And Method For Generating A Text Object
First Claim
1. A graphic output device for generating a mixed graphic-textual depiction having at least one text object consisting of multiple letters for the identification of a geographic feature, the output device comprising:
- a processor unit, which is set up to reshape the text object in such a manner that the reshaped text object comprises, in addition to a normal text area having letters in the original size, a compressed text area having letters shrunken and/or compressed in relation to the original size,wherein the boundary between the normal text area and the compressed text area runs along a semantic jump point of the text object.

Abstract
A graphic output device for generating a mixed graphic-textual depiction having at least one text object consisting of multiple letters for identifying a geographic feature, the output device comprising a processor unit, which is set up to reshape the text object in such a manner that the reshaped text object comprises, in addition to a normal text area having letters in the original size, a compressed text area having letters shrunken and/or compressed in relation to the original size, the boundary between the normal text area and the compressed text area running along a semantic jump point of the text object. A method for preparing a text object consisting of multiple letters using a processor unit, for the purpose of depicting the text object using a graphic output device.

11. A method for preparing a text object consisting of multiple letters using a processor unit, for the purpose of depicting the text object using a graphic output device, the text object comprising a normal text area having letters in the original size and a text area to be compressed having letters shrunken and/or compressed in relation to the original size, the method comprising:
-
a) analysis of the text object to be depicted on the basis of stored semantic, morphological, and/or linguistic rules and/or stored auxiliary information; b) morphological division of the text object to be depicted into text areas and/or morphemes; c) ascertainment of the semantic relevance of the text areas and/or morphemes; d) storage of the relevance analysis results for each text area having reduced semantic relevance; e) rendering of the letters of text areas having normal semantic relevance in the original size and the letters of text areas having reduced semantic relevance using shrunken size dimensions on the basis of the relevance analysis results; f) output of the rendered text object on the graphic output device. - View Dependent Claims (12, 13, 14, 15, 16, 17, 18, 19, 20)
