ABSTRACT:
A character generating apparatus for generating a character image representing a character and a method therefor, which are capable of preventing a flicker phenomenon, which occurs in the television receiver, using a simple algorithm. In the present invention, an edge of the character is detected based on font data of the character, and a shadow property is determined from an attribute data of the character. A character image is generated by forming a shadow, having the shadow property, adjacent to the detected edge.
