Abstract
Automatic font synthesis for modifying a local font to have an appearance that is visually similar to a source font is described. A font modification system receives an electronic document including the source font together with an indication of a font descriptor for the source font. The font descriptor includes information describing various font attributes for the source font, which define a visual appearance of the source font. Using the source font descriptor, the font modification system identifies a local font that is visually similar in appearance to the source font by comparing local font descriptors to the source font descriptor. A visually similar font is then synthesized by modifying glyph outlines of the local font to achieve the visual appearance defined by the source font descriptor. The synthesized font is then used to replace the source font and output in the electronic document at the computing device.
