Method And Apparatus For Conversion Of Outline Characters To Bitmap Characters

US Patent:

5099435, Mar 24, 1992

Filed:

Mar 31, 1989

Appl. No.:

7/331494

Inventors:

John S. Collins - Boston MA
Michael Yudis - Belmont MA
Philip G. Apley - Allston MA

Assignee:

Bitstream, Inc. - Cambridge MA

International Classification:

G06F 314

US Classification:

395150

Abstract:

An outline representation of a character or symbol is treated as being composed of a set of zones formed in both the horizontal and vertical directions. The zones are completely character-specific. Each zone defines the extent of some feature of the character. The boundaries of the zones are mapped to specific pixel locations in a bitmap em-square of selected resolution and size. Additional interpolation zones are defined which are used to map all the points on the outline representation of the character that are contained within the interpolation zone, but do not coincide with a control edge, from the positions in the high-resolution em-square to a corresponding position in the low-resolution em-square. To maintain relationships between features, constraint functions may be defined which regulate the size of the control zones for a character at predetermined sizes. Control zones and interpolation zones are all derivatively linked to a basic set of horizontal and vertical control edges at the outline description level.
