Abstract
A method implemented in a device including a position input sensor is provided, for generating ink data including stroke objects that are vector data configured to reproduce paths formed by operating a pointer. The method includes generally three step. The first step receives pen event data representative of a user's hand-drawn motion on a sensor surface. The second step generates a stroke object based on the pen event data, generates a metadata object that describes the stroke object based on the pen event data and context information received from an application supporting the pen event data, and generates a drawing style object that defines how to draw the stroke object based on the pen event data and the context information. The third step outputs the stroke object, the metadata object, and the drawing style object in association with each other in a recording format or in a transmission format.
