Study on the Application of Chinese Fonts in the Computer

Shen-Ao LIU

Abstract


A font library is a collection of fonts with different shapes but the same styles, sizes, and forms. It is made based on the number of Chinese characters and the standard of font shape in accordance with the regulations of our country, and there is no originality in choosing and arranging the contents and number of fonts. Therefore, a computer font library is not a compiled work, but a database, a frequently used computer font library. By the end of the 1980s, the computer font library has basically replaced the traditional type printing, accelerating the diversification of China's print fonts design. This paper discusses the design and creation of computer font libraries and the diversification of fonts design, and explores the application of computer fonts in the press and multimedia.
