Abstract

To obtain a kana-kanji conversion candidate the same as with a PC without necessity of unifying a Japanese conversion program and a use environment, even with an information processor different from a computer (shown as the PC) used by a user at ordinary times. The PC is equipped with a kana-kanji conversion unit which receives a character string through a network from the information processor (shown as a copying machine) and returns a conversion candidate. The copying machine is equipped with a UI unit for handling character input from the user and display to the user; a kana-kanji conversion unit which receives a character string input hereat and returns a conversion candidate; a conversion control unit which controls exchange among the UI unit, the kana-kanji conversion unit, and the kana-kanji conversion unit; and a PC identification unit which identifies the PC3 corresponding to a user using the copying machine. The conversion control unit sends a character string input through the UI unit to the kana-kanji conversion unit (and the kana-kanji conversion unit) in the identified PC3 to convert it therewith, and sends the result (conversion candidate) to the UI unit to display it.

Description

technical field

[0001] The present invention relates to an information processing device, a computer, an information processing system, and an information processing method, and more specifically, to a home computer integrated with a personal computer (PC) or workstation, or with a device set top box (set top box) or a television set via a network An information processing device that is connected to a computer and performs Japanese input, an information processing system composed of the computer, the information processing device, and the computer, and an information processing method. Background technique

[0002] All information processing devices such as multi-functional peripherals (MFPs), facsimile devices, television receivers, and various recorders that record sound or image / sound can convert input characters (hiragana or numbers) into kana and kanji to obtain, for example, electronic Desired character strings such as the name of the transmission destination of the m...

Embodiment Construction

[0045] The information processing device of the present invention is connected to a computer (not limited to fixed type / mobile type) such as a PC or a workstation normally used by a user through a network to obtain Japanese conversion candidates from the computer. An information processing system composed of a computer will be described. In addition, a PC is exemplified as a computer, but it can also be applied to other computers such as a workstation, a home computer integrated with a device set-top box, or a television. This information processing system is a Japanese input system that can obtain a candidate corresponding to a user who is using it even in an environment where a plurality of PCs are connected to one information processing device. Of course, as a system configuration, one information processing device may be connected to only one PC or a plurality of such information processing devices (the candidate PC in this case may be connected). Of course duplication be...
