Abstract

Official abstract text for this publication.

A display control device includes a memory controller, a display controller, and a notification unit. The memory controller causes a document file managed by a document management apparatus to be stored in a memory. The display controller causes a document represented by the document file stored in the memory to be displayed over an entire range of a display area of a display during a presentation. The notification unit notifies a user of presence of a difference between the document file stored in the memory and the document file managed by the document management apparatus, while the document is being displayed over the entire range of the display area, by displaying the difference in an area where the document is being displayed.

First claim

Opening claim text (preview).

What is claimed is: 1 . A display control device comprising: a memory controller that causes a document file managed by a document management apparatus to be stored in a memory; a display controller that causes a document represented by the document file stored in the memory to be displayed over an entire range of a display area of a display during a presentation; and a notification unit that notifies a user of presence of a difference between the document file stored in the memory and the document file managed by the document management apparatus, while the document is being displayed over the entire range of the display area, by displaying the difference in an area where the document is being displayed. 2 . The display control device according to claim 1 , further comprising: an acquisition unit that, by using occurrence of the difference as a trigger, acquires the document file managed by the document management apparatus from the document management apparatus while the document is being displayed. 3 . The display control device according to claim 2 , wherein the memory controller replaces the document file stored in the memory with the acquired document file which is managed by the document management apparatus, after the document being displayed is closed. 4 . The display control device according to claim 3 , further comprising: an inquiry unit that makes an inquiry to the user about whether or not a document represented by the acquired document file which is managed by the document management apparatus is to be displayed, while the document is being displayed, wherein upon receipt of a response to the inquiry indicating that the document represented by the acquired document file which is managed by the document management apparatus is to be displayed, the memory controller replaces the document file stored in the memory with the acquired document file which is managed by the document management apparatus, and wherein the display controller keeps the document, which is being displayed, displayed while replacement of the document file stored in the memory with the acquired document file which is managed by the document management apparatus is being performed, and causes the document represented by the acquired document file which is managed by the document management apparatus to be displayed after the replacement is completed. 5 . The display control device according to claim 4 , wherein the display controller causes the document represented by the acquired document file which is managed by the document management apparatus to be displayed at a position at which the document represented by the document file stored in the memory was being displayed at a time of the replacement. 6 . The display control device according to claim 1 , wherein the notification unit notifies the user of the presence of the difference by displaying the difference at a predetermined position in the display area. 7 . The display control device according to claim 1 , wherein, in response to the presence of the difference, the notification unit notifies the user of information indicating a position in which the difference is present. 8 . The display control device according to claim 7 , wherein the notification unit notifies the user of, while displaying a given page of the document based on the document file stored in the memory, information indicating one or more other pages including a page on which the difference is present. 9 . A terminal apparatus comprising: the display control device according to claim 1 ; the memory that stores a document file managed by the document management apparatus; and the display that displays a document represented by the document file stored in the memory. 10 . A non-transitory computer readable medium storing a program causing a computer to execute a process for display control, the process comprising: causing a document file managed by a document management apparatus to be stored in a memory; causing a document represented by the document file stored in the memory to be displayed over an entire range of a display area of a display during a presentation; and notifying a user of presence of a difference between the document file stored in the memory and the document file managed by the document management apparatus, while the document is being displayed over the entire range of the display area, by displaying the difference in an area where the document is being displayed. 11 . A display control method comprising: causing a document file managed by a document management apparatus to be stored in a memory; causing a document represented by the document file stored in the memory to be displayed over an entire range of a display area of a display during a presentation; and notifying a user of presence of a difference between the document file stored in the memory and the document file managed by the document management apparatus, while the document is being displayed over the entire range of the display area, by displaying the difference in an area where the document is being displayed.
