INFORMATION PROCESSING APPARATUS, METHOD, AND STORAGE MEDIUM - A simplified explanation of the abstract

This abstract first appeared for US patent application 20240176971 titled 'INFORMATION PROCESSING APPARATUS, METHOD, AND STORAGE MEDIUM

Simplified Explanation

The patent application describes an information processing apparatus for editing a document with multiple objects, including a change unit to modify the paper size of the document and an adjustment unit to resize objects based on the new paper size while maintaining aspect ratios.

  • Change unit for modifying paper size from first to second size
  • Adjustment unit for resizing objects based on new paper size while maintaining aspect ratios

Potential Applications

This technology could be applied in various document editing software, graphic design tools, and printing applications.

Problems Solved

1. Efficiently changing paper sizes in a document without distorting objects 2. Maintaining aspect ratios of objects when resizing based on new paper size

Benefits

1. Improved document editing capabilities 2. Enhanced user experience in handling document layout changes

Potential Commercial Applications

"Document Editing Software: Enhancing User Experience with Paper Size Adjustments"

Possible Prior Art

There may be prior art related to document editing software that allows for resizing objects while maintaining aspect ratios, but specific examples are not provided in this context.

Unanswered Questions

How does this technology handle complex layouts with multiple objects and different aspect ratios?

The technology adjusts each object individually based on the new paper size while maintaining its aspect ratio.

Can users manually override the automatic resizing of objects in the document?

It is not specified in the abstract whether users have the option to manually adjust the size of objects in the document after the automatic resizing process.


Original Abstract Submitted

an information processing apparatus for editing a document including a plurality of objects, including a change unit configured, based on a user instruction, to change a paper size of the document from a first paper size to a second paper size different from the first paper size, and an adjustment unit configured to adjust a size of the object included in the document based on the second paper size, wherein the adjustment unit adjusts the size of a specific object in the plurality of objects such that an aspect ratio of the specific object is maintained.
