Template Processing Program Combining Multiple Language Versions
Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
The existing print label producing systems are cumbersome for operators as they require manual setting of multiple language versions of templates, which are often provided in separate files, making it difficult to manage and download multiple language versions efficiently.
Innovation Solution
A template processing program that allows operators to select and combine multiple language versions of identical content into a single file, simplifying the download and storage process by generating a combined file on the operation terminal.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Ease of operation
If multiple language versions of templates are provided in separate files, then each language version can be stored and managed independently, but the operator must download and manage multiple separate files which is extremely troublesome and reduces ease of operation
Solution Approach 1:
The patent combines multiple language versions of the same template into a single file called a 'combined file'. This combined file contains multiple language versions that can be selected and used as needed, eliminating the need to download and manage multiple separate files for different language versions of the same template.
Solution Approach 2:
The combined file serves multiple functions by containing multiple language versions within a single file. This allows the same template to be used across different languages without requiring separate files for each language version, making the system more versatile and easier to manage.
2Productivity
If operators manually set all print objects to be printed on the print label, then complete control over print content is achieved, but the process becomes extremely cumbersome and reduces productivity
Solution Approach 1:
The patent uses pre-prepared templates that already have print objects arranged in predetermined formats. Operators can directly select and use these templates without manually setting all print objects, significantly reducing the time and effort required for template setup while maintaining control over the final print content.
3Loss of time
If multiple language versions are downloaded from the server for each language, then complete language coverage is achieved, but the downloading process becomes extremely troublesome and increases loss of time
Solution Approach 1:
The server and client system are designed to download and combine multiple language versions into a single combined file in one operation. This eliminates the need to perform separate downloads for each language version, significantly reducing download time and improving template acquisition efficiency.

AI summary
The disclosure discloses a template processing program for executing steps on a control device (12) of an operation terminal (2), which is connected with a print label producing apparatus (3) configured to produce a print label (L) using a template to which a print object is assigned and configured in a predetermined arrangement, and with a server (SV) configured to store a plurality of language versions of mutually different language types for the template prepared in advance, so that information is transmitted and received, and comprises an operation device (14), a display device (17) configured to execute a preferred display, the control device (12), and a memory (16), the steps comprising a language selection receiving step for receiving a selection of at least one language type via the operation device (14), a downloading step for downloading from the server (SV) at least one template that contains the language version of the language type received in the language selection receiving step from among the templates of a plurality of language versions stored in the server (SV), a combined file generating step for generating a combined file that combines a plurality of language versions using mutually different language types related to the template downloaded in the downloading step into a single file, and a storing step for storing the combined file generated in the combined file generating step in the memory (16).
