    Abstract: The apparatus incorporates a printing composer interconnected with a magnetic card recording and reproducing unit, and having telecomunication facilities. Provision is made for composing operations, including justification of printed information according to predetermined line lengths, centering, flush left, and flush right. The composing capabilities are in addition to basic recording and playback functions of the apparatus. Several modes of operation are possible. In a Record mode, characters and functional information entered by a keyboard produce data signals that are supplied to the magnetic card unit for recording in individual tracks on a magnetic card record media, each track being associated with a printed line on a document that is concurrently printed. During a Playback mode, data signals previously recorded in the individual tracks on the magnetic record card are sensed and applied to the printer to produce a printed document automatically. Neither the Record nor the Playback modes contemplate justification procedures. In a Justify Record mode, provision is made for recording characters and recognizing spaces as they occur during the printing of a document, compiling justification information to produce lines of predetermined length, and recording the justification data in association with the individual lines. In a Justify Playback mode, the previously recorded justification data is recognized and used during subsequent sensing of data signals to effect proper interword spacing in order to produce justified lines of printed copy.

    Abstract: The invention concerns a dictating system capable of the random recording and arrangement of audio segments, means for digitally recording the positions of such segments after the completion of such arrangement either upon an additional medium or upon the recording medium in a separate track or tracks reserved for such purposes or in locations corresponding to each audio segment giving the location of the next audio segment as defined by the arrangement, or for transmitting such information over a wire or wireless channel; and also concerns a transcription device for use with the above system, either capable of reading such digital information into memory before the beginning of the transcription process or capable of reading information giving the location of the next audio segment as defined by the arrangement during the transcription process, and having means for accessing audio segments on the medium recorded by the above system in the order of the arrangement.

    Abstract: LE979-024 WORD PROCESSOR AND DISPLAY A word processor supports two display modes, one unformatted mode comprising display of a partial page and another formatted mode displaying format of an entire page of text. Both modes impose minimal burden on the display allowing use, for example, of standard display chips with a variety of monitors including a standard TV set or TV monitor. Other advanced functions include simple addition, movement and deletion of text units or blocks; simplified underscore, underscore deletion, word underscore and word underscore deletion; and an uncluttered insert display regardless of the extent of inserted text. The hyphenate function is improved by informing the operator, via the display, of the relation between, not only the right margin and the hyphenate candidate, but also the relation between the hyphenate candidate and the actual preceding line endings.

    Abstract: VARIABLE CHARACTER SPACING MATRIX FOR PROPORTIONAL SPACING PRINTING SYSTEMS: The aesthetic characteristics of adjacent characters are used to enhance the quality of output in a proportional spacing printer and to provide right margin justification for composing. Spacing between characters is determined not only on the basis of the character being printed, but also on the preceding character already printed on the page. An intercharacter displacement memory is provided which contains a list of ideal spacing for all combinations of characters to be printed. As each character is typed, it and the previously stored preceding character address the intercharacter displacement memory. The output of the intercharacter displacement memory is the ideal value of escapement for this particular combination of characters and font style. The printer automatically repositions the print head prior to printing the next character, rather than positioning the print head after the previous character is printed. Line ending decisions for composing are eliminated during initial and final typing of a document by adding to the intercharacter displacement memory recommendations for altering the ideal spacing between characters, where aesthetically possible, to eliminate the need for line ending hyphenation. During initial keying of each line, escapements for each adjacent pair of characters is totaled in a memory for ideal, shortest (tight), and longest (loose) 1. recommended escapements. The line is automatically termi2. nated within the justification range by a carrier return 3. function based on the escapement totals and the selected 4. right margin. Final playout of the page from memory alters 5. the intercharacter escapements from the ideal values to 6. either longer or shorter escapements depending on whether 7. the line is to be lengthened or shortened.
