COMMUNICATION TERMINAL AND METHOD FOR CREATING FONT THEREIN

摘要

A communication terminal and a method for generating its font are provided to allow a user to generate and send an original font to a different terminal to share it. A camera module(110) inputs a character image for generating a font or a character image. A display unit(120) displays the inputted character image or the character image as a preview screen image. An edge detecting unit(130) detects an edge component of the displayed character image or the character image. A controller(160) selects a character by matching the edge component of the character image to a text code of a font file and calculates an average space of the edge component of the character image. A font file storage unit(140) stores the edge component of the character image as the selected character and the calculated average space.
