Abstract

Designing a digital font requires not only artistic but also technical skills. However, it is time-consuming and requires professional skills to create a nice font with consistency looks and plausible details. We present a font model that blends structures and outlines of template fonts individually, yet maintains the original style. We also present an algorithm to automatically generate font by blending the template fonts. It takes the desired outline of one character as an input and infer blending weights.
