A method of vectoring a curve having an endpoint and a tangent associated with the curve at the endpoint. The method determines a first point on the curve following the endpoint where a perpendicular distance between a first linear segment, joining the first point and the endpoint, and the curve, does not exceed a tolerance. A second point on the tangent is then determined for which a perpendicular distance from the first segment to the second point does not exceed the tolerance. The curve is then vectorized by a path formed of a plurality of linear segments, the plurality of linear segments comprising at least a second segment joining the endpoint and the second point, and a third segment joining the second point to the first point. |
