Tag display control system and method
First Claim
1. A tag display control system which displays pages of a document, in which tags are attached to arbitrary end sides of the pages in arbitrary sizes, in a state that adjacent pages are partly overlapped by arranging subsequent pages for a current page at positions sequentially shifted in a predetermined direction, said system comprising:
- document information storage means for storing page information including description content information for each page and size information for each page, and tag information including attachment position information for each of the tags attached to arbitrary end sides of the pages and size information for each of the tags attached to each of the pages;
display data generating means for generating display data for displaying the tags attached to a current page and subsequent pages based on information indicating the current page, the page information and the tag information;
display data storage means for storing the display data generated by said display data generating means;
determination means for determining overlap of a tag of a page with respect to another page and a tag thereof based on the display data stored in said display data storage means;
change means for changing the display data of the tag of the page based on a determination result of said determination means and writing the changed tag display data into said display data storage means; and
output means for displaying the document and the tags based on the display data stored in said display data storage means.

Abstract
A tag display control system displays document pages to which tags are attached in offset overlapped relation. In the system, page size information, and attachment position information and size information of each of tags attached to each page are stored in a display data table, and a tag control section determines overlap of a tag to a lower page with respect to an upper page or a tag to an upper page based on the page overlap order information, the page size information, and the attachment position information and size information of the tags. If the lower page tag is hidden under the upper page or upper page tag, the tag control section changes the attachment position information or size information of the lower page tag or reduces the size of the upper page tag for changing the attachment position or size so as to display the lower page tag on an output section.

12. A tag display control method for displaying a plurality of pages of a document to which tags are attached in overlapped relation in a state that the pages are sequentially shifted in a predetermined direction by using display data storage means for storing tag information including attachment position information and size information for each of the tags attached to arbitrary end sides of the pages, said method comprising the steps of:
-
determining overlap of a tag of a page with respect to another page and a tag thereof based on the page shape information, the attachment position information, and the size information; changing the tag information for the tag when the tag overlaps another page or the tag therefore; and displaying the document and the tags based on the tag information stored in the display data storage means. - View Dependent Claims (13, 14)
