ABSTRACT:
A method for approximately representing a first curve having anchor points and a control point, wherein the first curve is subdivided into a plurality of segments and an approximate curve is constructed by joining the points corresponding to the ends of the segments with straight lines. The number of segments is a function of the difference between the lengths of lines joining the anchor points and control point, and a line joining the anchor points.
