RASTER IMAGING AND DIGITAL TYPOGRAPHY, INTERNATIONAL WORKSHOP October 12-13, 1989. Sponsored by Eurographics Ecole Polytechnique Federale, Lausanne, Switzerland Chairman : Roger D. Hersch, EPFL Vice-Chairman : Jacques Andr., INRIA-IRISA, Rennes, France Debra Adams, Xerox Parc, Palo Alto, USA Raster image processors for screens, non-impact printers and plotters require highly sophisticated algorithms and hardware. Outline character acquisition, design, manipulation and rasterization, as well as graphic and image rendering are of major concern to scientists and engineers involved in the development of raster imaging devices. It is the aim of this workshop to bring together people from various scientific, industrial and artistic backgrounds. It will provide a unique opportunity for information and discussion on advanced techniques in the domains of Raster Imaging and Digital Typography. The conference program includes the following sessions: - Character Generation - Kanji Fonts - Rendering using Raster - Character Design - Design Analysis and Font - Character Outline Manipulation - Font Management - Raster Imaging and Curve Fitting For more information or a brochure, contact : RIDT'89 Conference LSP/EPFL Tel ++ 41 21 693-2641 INF-Ecublens Fax ++ 41 21 693-3909 CH-1015 Lausanne e-mail: Switzerland ridt@elma.epfl.ch
