    Hi, all,

    sorry if my question is silly, but is there any reference to math background for the calligraphic tool?

    Appreciate in advance.

    Hi. What do you mean by "math background"?

    Since you are referring to Calligraphy, do you mean a series of lines that have slants at various angles to aid in making proper stroke angles for individual letters? Such as a series of lines angled at 22.50 degrees or 30 degrees or 45 degrees? And so on?

    Such as a calligraphy practice sheet over which to practice creating ot placing individual characters (letters) or portions of letters? BASED UPON CERTAIN LETTERING STYLES, SUCH as  Gothic lettering?

    Look at this reference. Is this what you mean?

    Hi,

    I'd like to understand the principles that are used to calculate stroke thickness,  depending on the brush velocity. The principle of the brush angle evaluation. Why do particular parameters like fixation and tremor were used.

    Thank you.
