ABSTRACT OF THE DISCLOSUREA digital video display system wherein the variouscharacters to be displayed are displayed in the form ofimages of the complete character rather than the standarddot-matrix pattern of the prior art. A character genera-tor in the display system stores signals representing thevarious characters to be displayed which are retrieved fromstorage in response to a character code. The signals arein the form of a binary code having a sufficient number ofbits to represent a different number of levels of gray-scale or luminance values for the various picture elementsmaking up the character image. The binary codes thusretrieved from storage are supplied to a video synthesizerthat generates the video signal to display the characterimages which may be displayed in a number of differentmodes including white-on-black, black-on-white, black-on-gray, and white-on-gray as well as different combinationsof such modes to represent a cursor. The video synthesizercan generate output voltage levels in discrete stops forthe different luminances to be employed. The voltage out-put signals differ from level to level in accordance withthe 2.2 root of luminance.
