ABSTRACT:
The present invention provides a method for forming a font of a character or a symbol including inputting a plurality of coordinate data lying on a contour of a stroke specifying a dash of the character or the symbol, preparing data of the stroke including a plurality of input coordinate data, having one of the input coordinate data as coordinate data specifying the beginning point of the stroke or as coordinate data specifying the end point of the stroke, and forming a font of the character or the symbol including the data of one or more of the strokes. The invention also includes a method of determining whether a portion of the font of the character or symbol is blurred or bled, and alters the font of the character or symbol accordingly. The determination of blurring or bleeding may be made based upon at least one of ink quantity, writing speed, paper construction, or other appropriate factors.
