Abstract
A system and method for generating self-overlapping calligraphic images from an input source. The input can be a stylus and the angle of attack of the line with respect to a surface can be fixed or variable. The calligraphic image can have a fixed or variable width which can be point-by-point edited to form a new calligraphic image. The system has the ability to expand a calligraphic image with overlapping strokes and subsequently edit the image.
