Apparatus and method of generating personal fonts

An apparatus for generating personal fonts, comprising:

• a character input unit to receive an input of a character trace, which has at least one feature point, from a user;
• a character recognition unit to recognize a representative character corresponding to an input character from the input character trace;
• a representative trace generation unit to generate a representative trace expressing a trace of the representative character;
• a trace modification unit to modify a position of the at least one feature point on the trace of the input character by combining a weight value of the generated representative trace with the trace of the input character using at least one processor to generate the personal fonts;
• and
• a correspondence analysis unit to analyze correspondence between constituent elements of the input character trace and the generated representative trace if the correspondence between the constituent elements is not provided by comparing the trace of the input character and the generated representative trace.
