PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To obtain the character processing method which outputs a character according to a character kind and outputs the character pattern by expanding a character by performing a thinning process for font data according to font data of the character to be expanded and adjustment information which is read out. SOLUTION: A character code which is inputted from an input part 11 is read out. Specified character size information is inputted and converted by a processing part 12 to type face size information corresponding to the size quantity of each character according to a parameter value 122a set previously in a RAM 122. According to the type face size information, the font information read out of a pattern information storage part 13 is expanded into a pattern. The pattern-expanded character pattern information is outputted from the processing part 12 to an output part 14. Namely, specified character size information is replaced with arbitrary type face size information by using the parameter to generate a character pattern, so that a character with high readability can be outputted whatever size the character pattern has. |
