Abstract :
We develop a novel method for feature point detection and employ it to generate outline font from historical document of Chinese calligraphy. The feature points at a character contour subdivide the contour into segments. Each segment can be then fitted by a parametric curve to obtain the outline font. Some experimental results are also presented in the paper.
