  • Patent number: 10311133
    Abstract: Disclosed in the present invention is a character curve generating method and device thereof. The method comprises the following steps: (1) inputting text information, and the text information comprises m characters; (2) performing voice input to generate an audio file; (3) dividing the audio file into m equal time periods and calculating a corresponding sound volume of each time period; (4) calculating dimension information corresponding to each character in the text information according to the sound volumes of different time periods in the audio file; and (5) changing display sizes of the m characters in the text information according to the dimension information acquired in step (4) to form a character curve. The text curve formed by multiple characters in different font sizes generates a more interesting image and provides more information compared to text information in a single font size in the existing instant communication system.
