Computer-implemented method of generating a glyph representation for use in a rendering process

Abstract

A computer-implemented method of generating a further glyph representation for use in a rendering process, comprises: determining a first plurality of locations in the further glyph representation corresponding with a respective plurality of source locations in a source glyph representation; setting respective first indices for the first plurality of locations based on values associated with the respective plurality of source locations; setting, for each location of a further plurality of locations in the further glyph representation, respective second indices based on a relationship between the location and one or more source locations, wherein the further plurality of locations include the first plurality of locations and a second plurality of locations; and storing the respective first and second indices in association with respective locations. A computer-implemented method of rendering a glyph using the further glyph representation is also described.
