ABSTRACT:
A process and system for generating a character pattern includes the steps of storing character data that consist of coordinate data, generating a character pattern according to the stored coordinate data, determining a parameter to make the character pattern thick or thin, converting the coordinate data according to the determined parameter, and generating a thick or thin character pattern according to the converted coordinate data without changing the frame size of the character pattern.
