With the rapid growth of multimedia information, the font library has become a part of people’s work life. Compared to the Western alphabet language, it is difficult to create new font due to huge quantity and complex shape. At present, most of the researches on automatic generation of fonts use traditional methods requiring a large number of rules and parameters set by experts, which are not widely adopted. This paper divides Chinese characters into strokes and generates new font strokes by fusing the styles of two existing font strokes and assembling them into new fonts. This approach can effectively improve the efficiency of font generation, reduce the costs of designers, and is able to inherit the style of existing fonts. In the process of learning to generate new fonts, the popular of deep learning areas, Generative Adversarial Nets has been used. Compared with the traditional method, it can generate higher quality fonts without well-designed and complex loss function.
