Patent
CA 2188506
A method for creating anti-aliased characters on a computer output device includes the steps of generating a call from a client process for a character to be rendered, rendering the character at a high resolution, and aligning stems of the character with a coarse grid corresponding to the resolution of an output device. The step of aligning the high resolution rendered stems to the coarse grid provides for an anti-aliased output with balanced stems. A method for rendering a character includes the steps of determining a device resolution and a number of greyscales to be displayed by a digital output device, determining a coarse grid and a high-resolution grid, developing character information concerning a character to be rendered, creating an initial bitmap of the character from the character information at the resolution of the high-resolution grid, and aligning stems of the initial bitmap with the coarse grid to create a coarse grid aligned high-resolution bitmap.
