    Abstract: An automatic format control for controlling text format upon playout from a text buffer loaded from segmented media, such as magnetic cards. At the beginning of a job and during input keying, format information made up of tab set locations, a measure length, index values, adjust modes, etc., is stored in a text buffer. The keying of this information causes appropriate printer format control settings. Text to be formatted and controlled by the printer according to this format information is then keyed and stored in the text buffer. A later change in format for the same page of the job is handled by keying new format information. This results in new printer tab, etc., settings. This new format information is also stored in the text buffer. Upon later recording onto a magnetic card, all format information is stored on the card along with the text. Also, the last format information recorded on the card is written into a format buffer. This last format information will remain in control until new format information is keyed and stored for a subsequent page. Thus, a history of format information from a previous card will be preserved in the event editing of text overlapping two consecutive cards becomes necessary.

    Abstract: TABULATION CONTROL SYSTEM A system having two tab racks for controlling playout of sequentially stored text columns in a side-by-side format. During input keying set up of a job, desired tabs are set in a text tab rack and stored in a text buffer along with the text. These tabs will be in control for following keyed text. If new or additional tabs are required to define column boundaries during later playout, they are keyed, set, and stored prior to the text for the columns. In any event, the tabs in effect at the beginning of input keying of the columnar job will be in control for the column text. Upon later playout from the buffer and when the beginning of the first column is reached, a copy of the tabs set in the text tab rack is transferred to a column tab rack to control the column boundaries. If different tabs are required for the text in the columns, they must have been stored in the buffer after the beginning of the first column or playout must be interrupted for input keying of these tabs.

    Abstract: A text processing system having a high data rate cyclic memory interfaced with a low data rate text processor through a random access memory for processing text stored in the cyclic memory. Text character codes and control codes are initially stored in the cyclic memory. Depending on the system operation to be performed, selected character and control codes are transferred from the cyclic memory to the random access memory until the capacity thereof is reached. Thereafter, the character and control codes stored in the random access memory are gated out to the text processor for processing.
