Description

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION [Technical Field of the Invention] The present invention relates to a bold character creation method that allows the line widths of lines constituting characters to be increased.

[Prior art and problems]

When displaying characters on the display screen, 1 Generally C
A character pattern registered in advance in a G (Character Generator) file is used. When changing the character pattern, the CG is directly rewritten, but this work is extremely time-consuming. If you need a thin line character pattern and a bold character pattern for the same character, for example, if you want to make only the heading characters bold, this can be solved by having multiple CG files without rewriting the CG. , there is a lot of waste as it takes time to replace files.

[Purpose of the invention]

The present invention is based on the above consideration, and an object of the present invention is to provide a method for creating bold characters that allows the lines that make up the characters to be easily made thicker.

[Structure of the invention]

Therefore, the bold character creation method of the present invention moves the dot pattern data in the image memory in a specified direction.
The method is characterized in that a process of shifting by a dot and superimposing the shifted dot pattern data and the original dot pattern data is performed a specified number of times, and the above process is performed in all specified directions. It is something.

[Embodiments of the invention]

Hereinafter, the present invention will be explained with reference to the drawings.

Figure 1 is a diagram explaining the process of making the lines that make up a character thicker by one dot in the horizontal direction, Figure 2 is a diagram showing a character in which the lines that make up a character are made one dot thicker in the vertical and horizontal directions, and Figure 3 The figure is a diagram explaining the process of thickening a character string by one dot in each direction, FIG. 4 is a block diagram of an embodiment of the present invention, and FIG.
The figure is a diagram showing the flow of processing by the command processing section.

In Figure 4, 1 is the keyboard, 2 is the CG file,
3 represents a command processing section, 4 represents an image memory, and 5 represents a CRT.

When performing bold character processing, the operator first inputs a bold character command from the keyboard 1, and then inputs as parameters the name of the image memory for editing character data, the address of the image memory for editing character data, the character size, the character string, Number of increasing dots in the left direction (Parameter 1), number of increasing dots in the right direction (Parameter 2), number of increasing dots in the upward direction (Parameter 3), number of increasing dots in the downward direction (Parameter 4), and mask pattern (Parameter 5) Enter and finally press the execute key. Then, the command processing unit 3 reads the character pattern (synonymous with character data) of the specified character string from the CG file 2 and stores it in the image memory 4.
, thick processing is performed, and the result of the thick processing is displayed on the CRT 5.

The thickening process is performed as follows.

■ As shown in Figure 1, character data A (original character data is A) is shifted -l (leftward) in the X direction, the shifted data is OR<N underwritten), and the character data B
Create.

② Perform the process ② the number of times given by parameter 1.

■ Similar processing as in ■ is performed for the right direction, left direction, and downward direction, respectively.

■ Extract only the data in parameter 5 (mask pattern) and display it.

FIG. 5 illustrates this thickening process.

In FIG. 2, character data A in FIG. 1 is made thicker by one dot toward the left and toward the top.

The parameters at this time are Parameter i=.

Parameter 2 = 0 Parameter 3 = 1 Parameter 4 = 0 Parameter 5 = Quadrilateral PI, P2. P3. It is P4.

In FIG. 3, the character string ABC is made thicker by one dot in each direction to the left and to the right. The parameters at this time are: Parameter 1 = 1 Parameter 2 = 1 Parameter 3 = 0 Parameter 4 = 0 Parameter 5 = Quadrilateral Q ” w Q 2 * Q 3
, Q4.

〔Effect of the invention〕

As is clear from the above description, according to the present invention, it is possible to easily and quickly change a thin character to a bold character. Further, it is easy to process when partially making bold characters in one screen created with the same character pattern.
