Have Fun With Chinese Characters! We are providing some Chinese characters from our high quality fonts for your fun. CH_K.PFB contains 94 modern (or simplified,'short') Chinese characters in Kaishu style (the printed style that is closest to brush writing) from our OUTLINE fonts. If you are Chinese or like to add an exotic touch to your greeting cards, invitations, titles etc., you'll find them pleasant and useful. WHO ARE WE -- SPRING SYSTEM, Germany and OMNIGENA Co, Taiwan, a joint venture for Chinese software development, are now designing a series of intelligent Chinese software suitable not only for native speakers or users of Chinese, but even for beginner learners of the language. -- Our SPRING TEXTSYSTEM 2.3 (available since Dec 1990) is a Chinese word processor that is based on keyboard sound input, and you only need to type in the accurate sound, in Pinyin or Zhuyin of Chinese compounds (less the tones) to have the characters generated by the system. (see Appendix) -- We are also completing our outline fonts project, to provide the highest quality fonts available on the market. Our complete set of fonts include both the Jiantizi ('modern', 'simplified', or 'short' characters used in mainland China and Singapore) and Fantizi ('classical', 'full', or 'long' characters used in Taiwan and Hong Kong). -- We are now going heavily into developing a Chinese database management software, your ideas and opinions are greatly appreciated. -- Please contact us under the following addresses, if you'd like to request any improvement on the font we provide here, or if you'd like to know more about us: Dr. Zhang Zhaoyuan Mr. Wong Yi SPRING SYSTEM OMNIGENA Co Zuernstrasse. 2 A305 P.O.

The format of the outline fonts is based on Postscript Level 2.0 and Adobe Type 1 Font Format. We understand that Adobe has put in some new commands in their latest versions to make the printing of oriental charaters easier, these commands by themselves are nevertheless far from sufficient to produce high-quality Chinese characters in print. This makes it impossible for us to include all our design parameters in the font in question. We also haven't included the Stem Hints commands here, since the font provided is meant for large characters only. Users should choose a size above 16 pt (180 dpi) or 14 pt (300 dpi). This is how it looks like:
