Creating and Editing Fonts

5–2

Each character in a font is a 32x32 pattern of pixels, each of which can have
one of three states:

Black - The corresponding part of the printed character is expected to be
black.

White - The corresponding part of the printed character is expected to be
white.

Don’t care - The corresponding part of the printed character can be either
black or white.

The Font Editor allows you to add character patterns to a font. After
obtaining an image of the characters to be taught, a character pattern is taught
by placing a box around the character, and using an automatic Teach
function. The character pattern can then be further refined by manually
adding or removing pixels, to maximize the distinction between different
characters that are similar in appearance.
