Abstract :
Based on the cubic B-spline curve, new Chinese fonts are generated by wavelet transforms in this paper. The outlines of Chinese fonts are first transformed into B-spline curves. Then, using wavelet transforms, the control points of each curve are decomposed into hierarchies containing the detailed features of the Chinese fonts. Using the synthesis procedure of wavelet transforms, new fonts can be generated by modifying details at selected hierarchies.
