CHARACTER PROCESSOR AND METHOD THEREFOR

PURPOSE:To save the handling time of the selection of a homonym candidate and to improve operability by estimating the field information of a document at the time of calling the document and changing the sequence of the conversion candidate of a KANA(Japanese syllabary)/KANJI(Chinese character) according to the estimation. CONSTITUTION:A fixed memory ROM has an inter-field degree of association table WTBL and a keyword dictionary KDI, and a random access memory RAM is provided with an input buffer IBUF storing the reading column for which a key input is performed or the conversion result of a KANA/KANJI conversion word, a homonym buffer DOBUF storing the homonym candidate of the conversion result and a document buffer TBUF storing a field information table BTBL and document data. By the input from a keyboard KB, a CPU reads the control signal of the ROM and various kinds of controls are performed. Namely, the input is converted into a notation by referring to a dictionary KDIC, etc., and the document edited by the notation is stored. It is called, the field information corresponding to a routine document is called, the field information to which the document belongs is estimated, and the information is set to a storage means.
