PURPOSE:To provide a machine translation system capable of restoring automatically the format of input together with a character string after conversion. CONSTITUTION:An original image data input part 1 reads an objective original to be translated, and converts it into image data, and supplies it to a frame dividing part 2. The frame dividing part 2 extracts the null part of an image from the image data, and forms a frame by dividing the image data respectively based on the null part, and judges whether the inside of each frame is the character string, a table, and a pattern or not, and supplies the result to a translating part 3 as image information. The translating part 3 translates the character string from among the character string, the table, and the pattern, etc., of this image data into desired language, and supplies the translated result to a format information changing part 4. The format information changing part 4 changes the size of the frame, a character interval, and the size of a character so that the character string among the character string, the table, and the pattern of this translated result and the character string in the table enter the frame, and supplies a changed result to a translated result output part 5 as the translated result. |
