This paper presents an interactive font search method for users who have no significant knowledge of fonts. The proposed method suggests some font candidates by deforming a displayed font image into a font resembling a user’s desired font. Generally, font category names, font tags regarding human impressions such as “Cute”, and a font list are used for searching a font. However, there are some issues: knowledge of font category names is required, each user gets a different impression from a font, and the font search from a font list becomes tedious as the number of font candidates increases. We expect that the proposed method can solve these problems, because it allows users to search a font easily.
