JPH04171490A - Letter pattern preparing system - Google Patents

Abstract

PURPOSE:To enable a desired letter pattern to be prepared in a short time by providing an image data inputting means and a letter pattern forming means to convert the inputted image data to the letter pattern and confirm it through a pattern confirming screen while registering it on a letter pattern file. CONSTITUTION:An input means 31 for image data of a soft ware in a computer body 3 inputs letter pattern images as image data received from an image- reading device 2, and a letter pattern forming means 32 of a soft ware of the computer 3 converts the inputted image data to the letter patterns and then confirms the letter pattern on a pattern confirming screen 4 to collect letter codes and register them on a letter pattern file 5. The letter pattern image to be prepared is inputted to prepare the letter pattern. Thus, the efficiency of operation is improved and the letter pattern approximating the letter image to be prepared can be simply prepared.

Description

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION [Field of Industrial Application] The present invention relates to a character pattern creation method, and more particularly to a character pattern creation method for creating a character pattern for use in a computer output device.

[Conventional technology]

A conventional character pattern creation method uses a keyboard and a display device to create a character pattern by inputting it dot by dot.

[Problem to be solved by the invention]

The conventional character pattern creation method described above has the disadvantage that it is difficult to create a character pattern exactly as the desired pattern image is created, and it takes too much time to create the character pattern.

An object of the present invention is to provide a character pattern creation method that allows character patterns to be created in a short time in accordance with the desired image.

[Means to solve the problem]

A character pattern creation method of the present invention includes an image reading device for reading a pattern image of a character to be created, and a character pattern creation method for creating a character pattern to be used in a computer output device. an image data input means for inputting a pattern image as image data; and a character pattern generation means for converting the image data inputted by the image data input means into a character pattern, confirming it on a pattern confirmation screen, and registering it in a character pattern file. It is configured with

〔Example〕

Next, embodiments of the present invention will be described with reference to the drawings.

FIG. 1 is a block diagram showing an embodiment of the character pattern creation method of the present invention, in which 1 is a pattern image of a character to be read, 2 is an image reading device, 3 is a computer main body, and 4 is a pattern confirmation after conversion. 5 is a character pattern file.

Further, the image data input means 31, which is software of the computer main body 3, inputs the character pattern image received from the image reading device 2 as image data, and the character pattern generation means 32, which is software of the computer 3, inputs the input character pattern image as image data. After converting the data into a character pattern, check the character pattern on the pattern confirmation screen 4, assign a character code, and create a character pattern file 5.
is registered with.

FIG. 2 is a flowchart showing an example of the processing of the character pattern creation method of this embodiment.

As shown in FIG. 2, the process of this embodiment includes inputting image data from the image reading device 2 (step S1).
, convert the image data into a character pattern (step S2), confirm the character pattern and assign a character code (step S3), and register the character pattern in the character pattern file 5 (step S4). It's finished.

〔Effect of the invention〕

As explained above, the character pattern creation method of the present invention can create a character pattern by inputting the pattern image of the character you want to create, which improves work efficiency and allows you to create characters that are close to the image of the character you want to create. This has the effect that patterns can be easily created.
