We developed the computer calligraphy, that is, a computer formation of brush-written Kanji characters using calligraphic knowledge. The style of brush handwriting depends mainly on the way of using a writing brush. Brush writing skills include the direction of brush at the beginning, curvature and turning the brush, the brush-up at the termination point in a stroke. We make up the calligraphic knowledge base according to the above mentioned brush writing skills. For simulating real brush movement, we represent the brush contact form that is the brush shape on the writing plane as a brush-touch. The system can control the size and direction of this brush-touch during the brush simulation. The system simulates the real brush writing to move the brush-touch along the skeleton letter shape in the standard database. We get the brush written Kanji from the locus of the brush-touch movement. We can extend this system to the new on line training system for brush writing using the simulation of brush-touch movement modified by the pressure, speed and rotation of the writing brush, and the skeleton letters written by a learner from the tablet. This system is also useful for students learning how to write Japanese letters beautifully with brush.
