摘要:
A method and system for providing a substitute font that visually approximates a selected font that is unavailable in a computer system is provided. In a preferred embodiment of the present invention, the method and system first selects as the substitute font a font that is available in the computer system. The method and system then adjusts the overall widths of the characters of the substitute font to match the overall widths of the corresponding characters of the selected font. This causes the same combinations of characters of the substitute font and of the selected font to have substantially the same size and appearance. The method and system then makes the substitute font available to a program that has requested the selected font.

An output apparatus and method controls a combination of a plurality of font data stores and a plurality of conversion methods for converting font data to dot pattern data in accordance with a condition of a using right of a print data processing unit and a bit map pattern producing unit.
摘要:
A system for handling multiple printer font requirements during playout of a plurality of sequentially stored text columns in a side-by-side format. A line from one column is printed on a print line, the carrier is caused to escape, and any corresponding line from a succeeding column is printed on the same line. Printing and escapement continue until all corresponding lines from each column are printed on the same print line prior to causing a printer carrier return. During playout within a column, or from column to column, printer font requirements stored with the text are used to determine subsequent system events. If one of the columns, or a portion thereof, is to be printed in a different type style or language, the system will signal a need for a font change, stop the playout and await an indication that a font change has been made.

摘要:
The present invention aims at providing a printing system and technique correctly reflecting supplied color information, and a technique of managing color information in a centralized manner thereby facilitating maintenance of data. The printing system has a color information database DB in which color information is registered, and the color information has respective items of “color name”, “ink name”, “printing order”, “screen angle”, “process colorization instruction”, “pseudo color” and “ink type”. In print processing, it acquires a color name specified as the color of a prescribed area in digital data subjected to printing, and retrieves and extracts color information corresponding thereto from the color information registered in the color information database DB. Then, it performs raster image processing and performs print processing on the basis of the extracted color information. Also in confirmation output, it performs similar processing with the color information database DB managed in a centralized manner.

An output apparatus includes a storage device for storing font information; a unit for generating a predetermined pattern in accordance with the font information stored in the storage device; a unit for instructing to output a font list of the font information; and an output unit responsive to an instruction from the instructing unit for outputting a font list having a desired resolution.
摘要:
A group of selected character codes is converted into character patterns in advance and stored in a font cache memory, and, when one of the character codes is received as the printing instruction, such pre-converted character pattern is utilized for printing. Thus the conversion into the character pattern can be dispensed with at each code reception, and the time required for such conversion can be shortened.
