Abstract
Grayscale has been used recently in drawing characters on computer screens to improve the text quality. However, most efforts in this area have focused on Latin alphabets. We examine issues related to the generation of Grayscale Chinese characters, proposing the use of an object-oriented architecture for character composition, carrying out a visual experiment to determine the relationship between grayscale and the perceived thickness of lines, and applying the results of the experiment to drawing grayscale characters. These enhancements will allow for faster and higher-quality production of grayscale Chinese characters.
