Method and apparatus for character font generation within limitation of character output media and computer readable storage medium storing character font generation program
A character font generation apparatus generates a font of a character for the output of the character to an output unit. First, whether the character specified through the operation of an input unit can be output in a desired font based on a predetermined resolution of the output unit or not is determined. If the result of the determination is no, a stroke of the character is omitted to reduce the size of the character, to allow the correct output according to the predetermined resolution. The stroke omission is performed with reference to contents of a memory storing various information necessary for the character font generation and a priority determination rule indicating various information for determining the priority of stroke omission, so as to maintain the balance and to preserve the shape (contour) of the character.
