CHARACTER ARRANGEMENT SYSTEM ON GRAPHIC

摘要

PURPOSE:To arrange the character strings along a segment or a curve of a graphic by changing the arranging angle of the character strings for each character when the character strings are arranged on the graphic. CONSTITUTION:The intersecting points 1 and 2 are set between the right and left end coordinates of each character and a curve to be set for each character of a character string set in parallel to an axis (x). An angle 3 between the segment drawn horizontally to the axis (x) from the coordinate point of the point 1 and the coordinate point of the point 2 is calculated. The angle 3 is used as a character rotational angle and the characters to be arranged are rotated. Thus, the characters are drawn.
