LARGE CHARACTER SET HANDLING IN LIMITED DEVICES

摘要

Limited devices have memories that are typically too small to store a complete font having an extended character set. The ability to handle necessary characters can be provided by leveraging connectivity of a limited device to a PC or server without requiring significant bandwidth or substantially reducing performance of the limited device. The limited device stores portions a font (typically on a character-by-character basis) and downloads information from the server as needed to display characters for which the limited device does not have sufficient information.
