Abstract

Original image information is stored electronically in a storage memory device. The original image information is transferred to a first buffer memory when the image information is to be edited. The editing image information is input through a keyboard and character generator, for example, and stored in a second buffer memory. Thus, the original and editing information are stored separately from each other. An image display control device reads out and combines the original and editing image information from the first and second buffer memories, respectively, to provide combined or resultant image information. A display device receives the resultant image information and displays the original and editing information differently so that the editing image information can be distinguished from the original image information on the display device.
