(54) Electronic information display apparatus


(57) An electronic information display apparatus is disclosed, in which the image display conditions are easily set and accurately related to an image. A display condition designation section (Ra) is secured in the leading portion of a transmitted original. This section (Ra) is followed by a display image section (Rb) for drawing an image to be transmitted. In the display condition designation section (Ra) is recorded the display conditions for the image described in the display image section (Rb). Parameters for the image display conditions include the "designated page number" of the image described in the display image section (Rb), a "period" during which the particular image is allowed on display, a "display time" during which the particular image is displayed continuously, a "display time zone", and a "day of the week" during which the display of the particular image is allowed. These command data and the image are correlated and stored in a RAM (85).
