摘要:
A Bezier curve constituting outline font data represents a curve by four coordinate values of a start point, an end point, and two control points. The curve is represented by two coordinates of the start point and the end point in collinear approximation, and by three coordinates of the start point, an intersecting point of two lines, and the end point in bi-linear approximation. In curve pattern approximation, when 32 curve patterns are prepared, the curve is represented by 5-bit data of two coordinates of the start point and the end point, and a pattern number. By effectively employing these three kinds of processes, it is possible to represent a Bezier curve constituting the outline font data with a reduced data volume.

A difference of coordinate values stored adjacent to each other is compressed by means of a statistical coding system when reading out outline font data storing coordinate values necessary for drawing a contour of a character in order of drawing the contour in a clockwise or counterclockwise direction and also a category of a line connecting a pair of coordinates simultaneously, followed by compressing the coordinate values of the outline font data. A value of a result of subtracting “A−1” from a difference of coordinate values is determined to be a difference value of coordinates if the difference of coordinate value is equal to or greater than a certain value A, and a code expressing the difference value of “0” is added in front of the codes of difference values that are smaller than the value A in the case of a category of line connecting adjacent coordinates to each other being a straight line.

An information display method displays a plurality of display frames arranged in a table on a display screen. Each of the display frames enables display of a plurality of information pieces, and a selected display frame is enlargeable, while non-selected display frames are reduced according to an enlargement ratio of the enlarged display frame. Each of information candidates to be displayed in respective display frames includes an attribute of a display priority and an attribute of a display character size, and an information display operation is carried out, based on a size of each of the display frames, by deciding the display priority and the display character size of each of the information candidates to be displayed in the respective display frames. Consequently, a large amount of information can be displayed, and easy operation can be realized.

摘要:
The present invention is a character image generation system for generating outline font based on character information and displaying the outline font on a display with a prescribed number of pixels. The character image generation system subdivides a curve expressed by character outline information corresponding to inputted character information, calculates the difference between coordinates at each end of the subdivided curve, compares the difference with a predetermined threshold value and sequentially calculates coordinates for each pixel, based on this comparison result.
