Even if font usage plays an important role in Document Image Analysis (DIA), recognition systems generally take the concept of font management in a weaker sense than in the production cycle. With the point of view of the document recognition community, we show how typographic information (characters bitmap, metrics, etc.) can improve existing analysis methods. After a brief survey of font recog...

A system is introduced that increases the information density of textual presentation by reconsidering text as pictures, expanding the range of written expression. Indicating nested associativity with stripes, Zebrackets uses small-scale horizontal striations, superimposed on parenthetical delimi t e r~ . This system is implemented as an active filter that re-presents textual information graphi...

Metal organic framework (MOF) is one of extraordinary materials in many technical field applications. One them as CO2 gas adsorbent. We studied, synthesized, and characterized Copper-based material, known frameworks (MOFs), using a solvothermal-based modification method. Copper salt (Cu (NO3)2. 3H2O) benzene dicarboxylic acid (H2BDC) were mixed then heated an oven at 120°C, to produce low impur...

PURPOSE We investigated the effect of font size on reading speed and ocular motor performance in strabismic amblyopes during text reading under monocular and binocular viewing conditions. METHODS Eye movements were recorded at 250 Hz using a head-mounted infrared video eye tracker in 15 strabismic amblyopes and 18 age-matched controls while silently reading paragraphs of text at font sizes eq...

Using the false memory paradigm (Deese, 1959), recently revived by Roediger and McDermott (1995), we examined the effect on true and false recognition of presenting study items in unusual looking fonts. In one condition, each font was associated with a single study item. In a second condition, each font was presented 12 times per study list, randomly distributed across several themes. In a thir...

This paper describes how custom computing machines can be used to implement a simple outline font processor. An FPGA based co-processor is used to accelerate the compute intensive portions of font rendering. The font processor builds on several PostScript components previously presented by the authors to produce a system that can rapidly render fonts. A prototype implementation is described fol...

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...
