Dynamic Regularisation of Intelligent Outline Fonts

This paper introduces a novel way to perform dynamic regularisation of outline fonts. In the proposed font representation, the characters are decomposed into the components glyph, contour, knot, and number. These components are scaled and mostly rounded before they are assembled.Togetherwith adroitly-definedBézier curves, this implies regularisation of the outlines without explicit grid-fitting, instructions, or hints. As a result, a single font representation permits font-scaling at increasing levels of detail, along with increasing type size and resolution.
