Method for editing document

摘要

A method of editing a document comprises displaying a text sentence on the screen of a display unit, bounding an area partly removed of the displayed text sentence and reserved for the display of a figure, calculating a configuration which the bounded area has on the document to be printed, displaying an area having a size in proportion to the configuration on the display screen, drawing the figure within the displayed area, and synthesizing the text sentence and the figure. When drawing the figure on the screen of the display unit, the user can monitor a print image.
