Together, all these lines form a character. Raster editing is faster but is somewhat limited in what it can do. Scaling and other geometric transformations cannot be easily performed in raster editing. The font packages are not included with the operating system and must be ordered separately. Users can also create vector font files that are based on raster font files.
Users can also create raster font files that are based on vector font files.
This flexibility allows both advanced and beginning users to edit and create fonts. The advanced user can convert simpler raster font files to a vector format, thus providing the capability for significant customization, while a beginning user can convert the most complex vector font to a raster format, which then can be edited quickly and easily. For SBCS font files, input and output file formats must be the same and bdf and xgsl formats cannot be handled. 3.1-based Kanji font files.
