1, Principle of Chinese character lattice font
(1) Chinese character coding
1. Location code
it is stipulated in the national standard GD2312-80 that all national standard Chinese characters and symbols are distributed in a square matrix with 94 rows and 94 columns. Each row of the square matrix is called an "area", numbered from 01 to 94, and each column is called a "bit", numbered from 01 to 94, The area code and tag number of each Chinese character and symbol in the square array are combined to form four Arabic numerals, which are their "location code".
the first two digits of the location code are its area code and the last two digits are its bit code. A Chinese character or symbol can be uniquely determined by location code. Conversely, any Chinese character or symbol also corresponds to a unique location code. The location code of the Chinese character "mother" is 3624, indicating that it is 24 digits in area 36 of the square matrix. If the location code of the question mark "?" is 0331, it is 31 digits in area 03.
2. Internal code
the internal code of Chinese characters refers to the code representing a Chinese character in the computer. The internal code is slightly different from the location code. As mentioned above, the area code and bit code of Chinese location code are between 1 ~ 94. If the location code is directly used as the internal code, it will be confused with the basic ASCII code. In order to avoid the conflict between the internal code and the basic ASCII code, it is necessary to avoid the control code (00H~1FH) in the basic ASCII code and distinguish it from the characters in the basic ASCII code. In order to achieve these two points, 20H can be added to the area code and bit code respectively, and 80h can be added on this basis (here "H" means that the first two digits are hexadecimal numbers). After these processes, it takes two bytes to represent a Chinese character with internal code, which are called high byte and low byte respectively. The internal code of these two bytes is represented according to the following rules:
High byte = area code + 20h + 80h (or area code + A0H)
Low byte = bit code + 20h + 80h (or bit code + AOH)
since the hexadecimal numbers in the value range of area code and bit code of Chinese characters are 01h ~ 5eh (i.e. 01 ~ 94 in decimal system), the value range of high-order byte and low-order byte of Chinese characters is A1H ~ FEH (i.e. 161 ~ 254 in decimal system). For example, the location code of the Chinese character "ah" is 1601, and the area code and bit code are expressed in hexadecimal respectively, that is, 1001H. The high byte of its internal code is B0H, the low byte is A1H, and the internal code is B0A1H.
(2) Chinese font storage format
1. Dot matrix font storage
in the dot matrix font of Chinese characters, each bit of each byte represents a point of a Chinese character. Each Chinese character is composed of a rectangular dot matrix, 0 represents no and 1 represents a point. Draw 0 and 1 in different colors to form a Chinese character. The commonly used dot matrix has three font libraries: 12 * 12, 14 * 14 and 16 * 16.
the font is divided into horizontal matrix and vertical matrix according to the points represented by bytes. At present, most font libraries are stored in horizontal matrix (the most commonly used should be the early UCDOS font). The vertical matrix is generally because some liquid crystals adopt the vertical scanning display method. In order to improve the display speed, the font matrix is made into vertical matrix, Save matrix conversion when displaying. What we describe next refers to the horizontal matrix font.
2. 16 * 16 dot matrix font library
for a 16 * 16 matrix, the number of bits required is 16 * 16 = 256 bits, and each byte is 8 bits. Therefore, each Chinese character needs to be represented by 256 / 8 = 32 bytes.
that is, every two bytes represent 16 points in a line, and a total of 16 lines are required. When displaying Chinese characters, you only need to read 32 bytes at one time and print every two bytes as a line to form a Chinese character.
The lattice structure is shown in the figure below:
3. 14 * 14 and 12 * 12 dot matrix font library
theoretically, for the word libraries of 14 * 14 and 12 * 12, the dot matrix required for them is (14 * 14 / 8) = 25, (12 * 12 / 8) = 18 bytes respectively. However, if they are stored in this way, when taking and displaying the dot matrix, because each line is not an integer of 8, it will involve the calculation and processing of the dot matrix and increase the complexity of the program, Reduce the efficiency of the program.
to solve this problem, some dot matrix word libraries store the word libraries of 1414 and 1212 as 1614 and 1612, that is, each line is still stored as two bytes, but the last two bits of every two bytes are not used in the word library of 1414, and the last four bits of every two bytes of 1212 are not used. This will be handled differently according to different word libraries, Therefore, we should pay attention to this problem when using the font, especially the 14 * 14 font.
(3) Chinese character dot matrix acquisition
1. Use location code to obtain Chinese characters
Chinese character dot matrix font is stored according to the sequence of location codes. Therefore, we can obtain the dot matrix of a font according to location. Its calculation formula is as follows:
Lattice start position = ((area code - 1) * 94 + (bit code - 1)) * number of Chinese character lattice bytes
after obtaining the starting position of the lattice, we can read and take out the lattice of a Chinese character from this position.
2. Obtain Chinese characters by using Chinese character internal code
The relationship between location code and internal code of Chinese characters is as follows:
High byte of internal code = area code + 20h + 80h (or area code + A0H)
Low byte of internal code = bit code + 20h + 80h (or bit code + AOH)
The location code can be obtained according to the internal code:
Area code = high byte of internal code - A0H
Bit code = low byte of internal code - AOH
By combining this formula with the formula for obtaining the Chinese character dot matrix, the position of the Chinese character dot matrix can be obtained.
