ABSTRACT:
A data converting apparatus having a memory for storing original outline data indicative of an outline of each stroke of a plurality of characters, which characters include characters each having at least one special stroke whose outline consists of ordinary segments, and a special chain of segments which defines a specific pattern. The original outline data indicative of the outline of the special stroke include ordinary segment data representative of the ordinary segments and special segment data indicative of the special chain of segments. The apparatus includes a generating device for generating a group of segment chain data representative of all the segments of the special chain of segments, based on the special segment data, and further includes a device for outputting normal outline data consisting of the ordinary segment data of the original outline data, and the group of segment chain data generated by the generating device. The special segment data preferably include data used for converting basic pattern data into the segment chain data.
