| Research Abstract |
In this study, we have aimed to establish a digital platform to support oriental culture studies. At the first step, we have especially aimed at Kanji Character Set, and tried to put the digital platform into practice in studies in classical Chinese literature and Oracle scripts. In this study, we have made about 380,000 TrueType fonts of Kanji and Oracle script. These fonts are designed for BTRON and Windows OS, and we will open them to the public by WWW. We have developed a tool that helps us to search and to input Kanji characters. With this tool, we can search Kanji characters by parts of their shapes, number of lines, and relations between Kanji characters. As a programming environment for the Huge Kanji Character-Set processing environment, we have established a specification of Java TRON code profile. In order to use Huge Kanji Character-Set contents in other systems, we have developed a special web server and a font traceability system. The web server converts characters that the target system can't display to images. The font traceability system converts TRON code text data to another text data that uses Gaiji fonts. In addition, we have constructed an Oracle bones database based on our digital platform.
Our digital platform and the database are used by users in the Institute of Oriental Culture, the University of Tokyo.
