Abstract
A method of assigning hints for outline-font creation includes a first step of dividing elements having similar outlines into classes, a second step of learning hint assignment by storing hint information which prevails when a hint is assigned by operator operation to a predetermined position of an outline of a representative element (master element) of each class, and a third step of assigning hint information automatically to elements of the class, to which the master element belongs, using learned hint information of the master element.
