Abstract
In a display apparatus, a text code input section outputs externally-supplied text code information to a font conversion section and a voice synthesizer section. The font conversion section converts the input text code into a corresponding font, and transmits the font to a display drive section via a video signal input section, and the display drive section causes a display section to display the font. Meanwhile, the voice synthesizer section converts the input text code into corresponding voice data, and transmits the voice data to a voice device where the voice data is outputted. With this structure, superior convenience is ensured for a display apparatus which serves only as an individual displaying apparatus and relies on an external device (server) for the major functions of the system.

1-14. (canceled)
A mobile-type display apparatus serving as a client device of an external host apparatus, the mobile display apparatus comprising:
- a display section;
- a voice output section;
- a text code input section for receiving an input text code from the external host apparatus;
- a display control section for displaying text corresponding to the input text code in the display section;
- and
- a voice output control section for outputting voice corresponding to the input text code through the voice output section,
- the voice input section outputs the input text code to the display control section and the voice output control section so as to display the text corresponding to the input text code in the display section, and output the voice corresponding to the input text code through the voice output section.
A mobile display apparatus serving as a client device of an external host apparatus, the mobile display apparatus comprising:
- a display section;
- a voice output section;
- a video signal input section for receiving an input video signal from the external host apparatus;
- a display control section for displaying an image based on the input video signal in the display section;
- a text recognizing section for extracting a text portion from the input video signal and converting the text portion into a text code;
- and
- a voice output control section for outputting voice corresponding to the text code through the voice output section,
- the video signal input section outputs the input video signal supplied from the external host apparatus to the display control section and the text recognizing section, and the text recognizing section converts a text portion of the input video signal supplied from the video signal input section into a text code and outputs the text code to the voice output control section, so that an image corresponding to the input video signal is displayed in the display section, and voice corresponding to the text code, which is included in the input video signal and is recognized by the text recognizing section, is outputted from the voice output section.
