Abstract:
A matrix character generation system for generating a dot matrix graph of a character in a dot, matrix format according to a word ID of the character, the matrix character generation system comprising:a memory for storing data and programs;a processor for executing the programs stored in the memory;a stroke table stored in the memory comprising a stroke ID and dot matrix data pre-stored in the memory for each of a plurality of strokes, the dot matrix data of each stroke being used to display the matrix graph of the stroke in a dot matrix, wherein the dot matrix data of each stroke comprises the data of dots constituting the dot matrix graph of the stroke;a character table stored in the memory comprising a word ID for each of a plurality of characters, a stroke ID for each stroke of each of the characters, and the position of each stroke of each character within the dot matrix; anda graph generation program stored in the memory for displaying the dot matrix graph of one character in the dot matrix according to the word ID of the character, the character table and the stroke table;wherein the graph generation program searches the character table for the stroke IDs of all the strokes of the character and the position of each stroke in the dot matrix according to the word ID of the character, searches the stroke table for the dot matrix data of each stroke according to the stroke ID of each stroke of the character, and displays the dot matrix graph of the character in the dot matrix format according to the position and the dot matrix data of each stroke.
