Re: Metafun: Finding intersection between characters

[Jeong Dal <haksan@me.com>]

Dear Hans,

First, it is great to know a new method of drawing an outlined font!

 I have applied it to Korean fonts. As you know, every Korean character is composed with “consonant+vowel(+consonant)” type. If consonant and vowel are connected (for example, “호”), then it draws correctly, otherwise (for example, “하”)  it draws only consonant.
Is there a way to count all the paths in a character(even if it is not connected)?

Thank you.
Best regards,

Dalyoung
