Abstract: A system which utilizes a floating hot zone for controlling quality of ultimately justified output text. In preparing text for later justified output, the minimum space size is set at three units. The zone is variable in width and located within the measure and adjacent the right margin. The width of the zone is partially dependent upon the number of spaces on a line. During printing, the left side of the zone is tentatively established when the residue is equal to, or less than, 36 units. Then, when the residue is equal to, or less than, the number of spaces times nine, the system will cause a bell to ring. This will alert the operator that the zone has been entered and if printing is thereafter terminated, the maximum space size will not exceed 12 units during later justified output.

Abstract: A system for positioning final copy printed text, upon a first printing, at a specified location on a line in a format determined by input keying. The location can be a blank block on a form to be filled in. After initial setup and during any input or output operation, a final copy printed text mode can be entered by an operator and stored. This will inhibit printing upon further keying until a carrier return is keyed following the text. The printer carrier is positioned through spacing, backspacing, tabbing, etc. relative to the left side of the block, and codes representative thereof are also stored. When the carrier is at the left side of the block, the keying of a variable space or character will define a tentative format and this location, and a variable space or character code will be stored. Then the text is keyed and stored. After the text has been keyed, the keying of spaces, backspaces, tabs, and/or variable spaces will result in codes representative thereof being stored and the final copy text format being finalized. When the carrier is located at the right side of the block, a carrier return is keyed and this location is defined by the storing of a segment end code. The carrier is then automatically returned to the position occupied at the time of keying the final copy printed text mode. Thereafter, the carrier is positioned at the beginning print point for the format determined by input keying, and the final copy text is printed.

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.
