(57)Abstract
This patent gives a way to generate text in personal handwriting by the usage of software running on computers.
Handwritings of several users are recognized using any existing algorithms and the entire character set of the user is
stored as font files or any other form like images. These fonts can later be applied to a typed text in the editor to
convert the type-written text into the particular user's handwriting. This version is the digitally generated handwriting
format. This text can also be converted into an image. An image containing the typed text in user's handwriting can be
directly obtained by following the above said method of storing the entire character set in images. One of the main
usages of this handwriting generation is in e-mail service to enable sending mails in personal handwriting. This
combines the speed of typewriting, editing using the editor and thereby avoiding the cost of scanning handwritten text
for converting to digital format.
