Character reading system and method
First Claim
1. A characters reading system for executing a process of reading characters written in a form based on preset read control information, said system comprising:
- standard-process designating means for designating a standard process of a predetermined process for the character reading;
first file means for storing a program for performing the standard process;
user-process designating means for designating a user process of an optional process different from the standard process;
second file means for storing a program for performing the user process; and
control means for executing the standard-process program in accordance with the standard process designated by said standard-process designating means and for executing the user-process program in accordance with the user process designated by said user-process designating means if the user process is designated.

Abstract
In a character reading system, a user-specific read processing is prepared by a user as separate from a standard read processing program (OCR handler) prepared by a maker, and it is stored in advance as an object program (executable load module) in a user execution file. An FC sheet on which format control information used in executing read processing is written, is fetched through an OCR and is registered in a user FC source file. Further, an interface file is prepared to provide an interface between the standard read processing program and the user processing program. A standard processing section fetches a slip and checks individual fields in the slip one by one, and writes in the interface file which file it is presently checking and the result of the checking. When there comes a field having user processing designated, the standard processing section starts a user processing section. The user processing section executes an executable load module and performs specific user processing based on the information written in the interface file. After completion of the user processing, the processing result is written in the interface file and the standard processing is started again.

9. A method for executing a process of reading characters written in a form based on preset read control information, said method comprising the steps of:
-
a) designating a standard process of a predetermined process for the character reading; b) designating a user process of an optional process different from the standard process; and c) executing a standard-process program stored in a first file and for performing the standard process in accordance with the standard process designated by the designating step and for executing the user process program in accordance with the user process designated by the user process designating step if the user process is designated. - View Dependent Claims (10, 11, 12, 13, 14, 15, 16)
