Abstract:
1. A method of displaying characters on a display, comprising: receiving and examining a display user's input request to display characters on a screen; if a character is to be displayed, reading font data for the character from a non-volatile memory, wherein the font data represent a horizontal line of a character using a single bit line; first displaying a font for the character in a single bit line corresponding to a horizontal line of the character in nth line of one field in one frame, wherein n is a natural number, or one scan line in one frame; redisplaying the same font for the character in a single bit line corresponding to the horizontal line of the character in (n+1)th line of a successive field of the one field or a successive scan line of the one scan line in one frame so that flickering is prevented; and displaying additional display characters in response to the request.
