ELECTRONIC DEVICE AND METHOD FOR OUTPUTTING HANDWRITING FONTS

摘要

In a method for an electronic device to output handwriting fonts, a thickness and a color is chosen for lines of handwriting fonts. Coordinates of touch points in response to a handwriting operation on the touch screen are recorded and one or more handwriting fonts are generated based on the recorded touch points. A first bitmap including the generated handwriting fonts is generated and a compression ratio between a minimum area of the generated handwriting fonts in the first bitmap and a area of a font in a text box of the electronic device is calculated. The generated handwriting fonts are compressed according to the compression ratio and a second bitmap including the compressed handwriting fonts is generated. The second bitmap is converted into a figure, and the figure is outputted in the text box of the electronic device.

1. A method for outputting handwriting fonts using an electronic device, the method comprising:
choosing a thickness and a color for lines of handwriting fonts on a user interface on a touch screen of the electronic device; recording coordinates of touch points in response to a handwriting operation on the touch screen; generating one or more paths based on the coordinates of touch points, and generating one or more handwriting fonts based on the one or more paths according to the thickness and the color chosen; generating a first bitmap comprising the one or more handwriting fonts; determining a minimum area of the one or more handwriting fonts in the first bitmap and determining an area of a font in a text box of the electronic device; calculating a compression ratio between the minimum area of the one or more handwriting fonts in the first bitmap and the area of the font in the text box of the electronic device; compressing the one or more handwriting fonts according to the compression ratio into compressed handwriting fonts and generating a second bitmap comprising the compressed handwriting fonts, the second bitmap having the same size with the font in the text box; and converting the second bitmap into a figure and outputting the figure in the text box of the electronic device.
