Abstract

A document information management system includes a database containing a plurality of document files with raster information previously stored therein, a display unit for displaying hypertext and non-hypertext documents, a marking pen unit, an execution instructing unit, a marking command analyzing unit, a first and second retrieving units, and an output unit. The marking pen unit has a marking pen for giving at least one marking command to one or more buttons or words for a hypertext document and one or more words in a non-hypertext document each displayed on the display unit. The marking command analyzing unit analyzes, when instructed by the execution instructing unit, contents of the marking command based upon the command mark as a button or key word. The analyzing includes a displacement comparison of the raster information. The first and second retrieval units retrieve related hypertext or non-hypertext documents, respectively. The output unit then outputs the related information.
