A data conversion apparatus is provided as a data transmitting apparatus
in a data communication system which achieves pseudo interactive
communications by using one-way communications between the data
transmitting apparatus and a plurality of data receiving apparatuses. The
data conversion apparatus converts documents stored inside into images to
be displayed on the screen, such as a TV screen. In doing so, if the
document includes character strings or image information as link
destination information which specifies another document as a link
destination, the data conversion apparatus adds a supplementary design
into the image of the link destination information for the viewer to
recognize such information.
