  • Publication number: 20230326104
    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.

  • Patent number: 11776168
    Abstract: This disclosure describes one or more implementations of systems, non-transitory computer-readable media, and methods that extract a texture from embedded text within a digital image utilizing kerning-adjusted glyphs. For example, the disclosed systems utilize text recognition and text segmentation to identify and segment glyphs from embedded text depicted in a digital image. Subsequently, in some implementations, the disclosed systems determine optimistic kerning values between consecutive glyphs and utilize the kerning values to reduce gaps between the consecutive glyphs. Furthermore, in one or more implementations, the disclosed systems generate a synthesized texture utilizing the kerning-value-adjusted glyphs by utilizing image inpainting on the textures corresponding to the kerning-value-adjusted glyphs. Moreover, in certain instances, the disclosed systems apply a target texture to a target digital text based on the generated synthesized texture.

  • Patent number: 11663394
    Abstract: In implementations of systems for generating instances of variable fonts, a computing device implements a similarity system to receive input data describing attribute values of glyphs of an input font. The similarity system generates a custom instance of a variable font by modifying a value of a registered design axis of the variable font based on the attribute values. A similarity score is determined that describes a visual similarity between the custom instance of the variable font and the input font. The similarity system identifies an additional design axis of the variable font based on the similarity score and generates an instance of the variable font that is visually similar to the input font by modifying a value of the additional design axis.

  • Patent number: 11403794
    Abstract: In implementations of glyph weight modification, a glyph modification system represents an outline of an unmodified glyph as segments having start points and endpoints. The segments have directions based on the start points and the endpoints such that an endpoint of a segment is a start point of another segment. The system identifies features of the unmodified glyph based on the segment directions. A property of the unmodified glyph can be modified by changing coordinates of points of the segments based on the identified features. The glyph modification system generates a modified glyph having the modified property using the points of the segments with the changed coordinates.

  • Patent number: 11367231
    Abstract: Systems and methods provide snap-line generation operations for live multi-path glyphs. In this regard, an attribute extraction component accesses a glyph description of a live multi-path glyph to determine and store several attributes related to at least one sub-path of the live multi-path glyph. The stored attributes are accessed by a snap-line generation component and used to determine whether an external object is moved near the live multi-path glyph. When moved near one another, a snap-line is generated along sub-path planes of the external object and the live multi-path glyph. Generated snap-lines are used to aid a user in aligning the two objects.
