Abstract
A mixed mode communication apparatus is disclosed which is capable of adding to the body of a document to be transmitted to specific called stations information which is added at high frequency by a simple manner. A quick dial of a called station is registered in a quick dial memory section. The stereotyped expressions used for each called station is registered as quick block data in a quick block data memory section. A common block number is assigned to the quick block data and the quick dial in order to secure the association of the quick block data with the quick dial. In response to a quick dial number entered from a keyboard, a block search section searches the quick block data memory section on the basis of the block number attached to the quick dial, and reads intentional quick block data out of the memory section. The readout quick block data is loaded into a buffer. After a block layout confirming section confirms the fact that the readout quick block data and the block data in a block data memory section do not overlap, those block data are sent out to a called station.
