Abstract: In the efforts to improve the total efficiency of computer systems and their applications, more importance is being placed on the qualitative improvement of processing information in these days The use of "Kanji (Chinese characters)" in the system is becoming one of the topical themes of research and development in Japan It is expected to considerably improve the communication from machine to man In the case of Kanji, a character generator with a font capacity greater than 1000 is required The same requirement might exist also in Western countries, if special fonts for Greek or Roman alphabets, italics, bold face, or special mathematical symbols are necessary Another example is a computer generated high-speed phototypesetting system
