Making OpenType fonts with free software
Bednár, Peter ; Mekyska, Jiří (referee) ; Rajmic, Pavel (advisor)
In thesis themes of typography and computer font of OpenType format is described in details. At the beginning attention is paid to historical development of typeface, where stress is laid mainly on development of Roman and white letter with their characteristics. Having presented basis of typography work is concentrated on topic of digital font with emphasis on possibilities of OpenType format. Further its characteristics and advantages were listed compared to another formats and it was evaluated as format appropriate also for creating font in education process. Letterspacing and kerning were mentioned between basic graphical modifications in creating fonts. In theoretical part of the thesis they were examined in available programs designed for creating font in OpenType format. Except free available means into summary were included also commercial types due to absence of more advanced instruments and functions with free available applications. In evaluation was found that the most convenient for education is Fontlab Fontographer commercial program, free Type lite and Fontforge indicated for Open-source platform. Practical part of the thesis is focused on two chosen programs for creating main font characteristics. The goal was to detect if it is possible to reach identical results when using both programs. Fontographer program enabled to use wide tool palette dedicated to vector graphic processing by means of Adobe Illustrator similar instrument. In the case of Type lite program there were rather less instruments, what is sufficient for elementary work and familiarization with creating of digital typeface. Freeware shortage is basic absence of kerning, spacing or hinting functions. Comparing program possibilities, it falls that freeware programs based on OS Windows with their functionality are sufficient only for entry level users. The best option within free available programs is Fontforge for OS Linux which supports mentioned typographic functions. Fontographer was recommended for teaching of basic characteristics of OpenType font format. Another goal of the thesis was creating of recommended work procedure for creating basic characteristics of OpenType font for students, that is enclosed at the end of the thesis.

Graphics and Presentation in the TeX and LaTeX Systems
Buňka, Roman ; Sysel, Petr (referee) ; Rajmic, Pavel (advisor)
This bachelor’s thesis deals with the insertion of external graphic files into LaTeX documents and the creation of graphics using internal tools of TeX. It describes the basic properties of the PSTricks additional package and its expansion enabling the creation of 2D and 3D graphs, special mathematical functions and electrical circuits. The work deals also with the method of creating PDF presentations using the Beamer class. This work suggests a structure of a source SVG file displaying electric circuits or flow charts. It also involves the creation of an XSLT conversion template providing for the conversion of these charts from the SVG format to the PSTricks format making it possible to use these graphic files in the LaTeX system.

Live typeface
Jiříček, Milan ; Špiřík, Jan (referee) ; Rajmic, Pavel (advisor)
The work describes the theoretical foundations of modern methods of creating new fonts, that is, using information technology, specifically vector programs. It also marginally shows the history of the font, Roman writing, the basic division of its compositions and describes its individual elements. The next part of the project focuses on creating digital fonts and continues with bringing it to live using algorithms and methods that can easily be processed in Matlab programming language. The method of implementation of the bringing the typeface to live is described and presentation of the generated results are then shown in few examples. Attention is also paid to the coordinates system, which is very important to solve geometric transformations, and two-dimensional vector graphics, which are widely used in the design and to render the fonts. Bézier curves and cubic Bézier curves are described in further detail along with vector graphics rasterization. One part of this text describes very important de Casteljau algorithm. The last chapter focuses on implementation in Matlab programming language, the creation of curves, that means single font characters, and the ways of how the algorithm works with transformations. Some sample images showing transformations using different input arguments are displayed in this section as well. There is evaluation of the contribution of this application and the possibilities of further expansion at the end.

Editor of Object Oriented Petri Nets
Kovács, Zoltán ; Janoušek, Vladimír (referee) ; Kočí, Radek (advisor)
The thesis deals with design and implementation of the editor object-oriented Petri nets described by language PNTalk. A PNTalk compatible representation and storage format based on XML technologies will be created. The design of the individual parts of the editor focuses on the internal storage facilities, on the graphical user interface and its functionality. In the final part there are practical demonstrations of the application.

Visualization and Modelling of Molecules and Crystalles
Bubník, Václav ; Chudý, Robert (referee) ; Zemčík, Pavel (advisor)
Aplikace pro vizualizaci a modelování molekul nejsou dosud příliš poznamenány současným hardware vyvinutým pro potřeby počítačových her. Cílem projektu je navrhnout intuitivní rozhraní s novými widgety specializovanými na atomové struktury a vizualizací využívající moderní hardware grafických karet. Důležitou částí je také dosažení vysoké přesnosti modelování, obvykle dostupné pouze u profesionálních CAD programů.

Commands for 2D plotter
Maštera, Martin ; Foukal, Roman (referee) ; Štohl, Radek (advisor)
This work deals with parameterized 2D plotter, which function is to draw arbitrary shapes, which are loaded from a PostScript file generated from AutoCAD. From that file are gained data, which are converted into shapes parameters. Communication between PC and PLC is provided via an OPC server from Rockwell Automation. In RSLogic 5000 application, which is used to program PLC from Rockwell Automation, is created program to draw individual shapes on paper.
