Label data processing apparatus and label data processing method

Abstract

The invention provides a label data processing apparatus and a label data processing method, which can easily edit and manage plural label data for printing labels.The label data processing apparatus is characterized by including: a label data storage unit (file storage region (85)) configured to store one or more label data for printing a label; and a display unit (display (5), display area (DA)) configured to switch and display, per label, an editing screen (processing area (PA) including at least a portion of text data included in each label data, as a selection candidate for the label data.

Description

Technical field [0001] The present invention relates to a label data processing device and a label data processing method capable of registering label data for printing labels as a file. Background technique [0002] Conventionally, a tape printing device capable of registering (storing) text data of a label created by a user as a file in the main body of the device is known (see Non-Patent Document 1). In this tape printing device, after the user inputs the text on the text screen (editing screen), by pressing the file key and other file menu operations, the text data is filed (file registration function). In addition, the tape printing device can register a plurality of text data. In addition, the user can call up the registered file (file call function) through the above-mentioned file menu operation at a desired timing. And, when performing file registration and recall, the user selects the registration destination and the file to be recalled on the selection screen of the ...

AI Technical Summary

Problems solved by technology

That is, in order to register and call out files, it is necessary to enter a menu level different from the editing work, so there is a problem of complicated operation

In addition, since the selection candidates for files displayed on the selection screen are file names, the user cannot confirm the contents of the file (text data) at the time of selection, and there is also a problem that the wrong file is selected.

At this time, the created text data is overwritten and registered on the wrong file, or the wrong file is called out, so the call-out operation must be performed again, which is very inconvenient

Or although the function of confirming the content of the file can be set, in fact, at this time, in order to confirm the content of multiple files, it is necessary to select the file number and confirm the content of the file one by one, and then return to select other file numbers, which is very troublesome and very inefficient. There will be problems with screen hierarchy and operations becoming more complicated
