ABSTRACT:
A method and device for generating a character line of uniform width throughout character size conversion includes predetermining an offset value corresponding to a target line width; adjusting a line width of each character part to the target value without consideration of respective line widths; obtaining coordinate data by reading coordinates of a dot sequence of each character part; reading an offset value corresponding to a character size after coordinate transformation on the basis of the read-out coordinate data. A reference point for a character part from the coordinate data is selected and coordinates of the dot sequence of the character part are transformed to a specified size. A character part font is generated using the transformed dot sequence and superimposing a character part font onto another character part for plotting a character.
