FIELD: electrical engineering.
SUBSTANCE: methods, systems and computer carriers for complementing hinting instructions for symbol intended for improving symbol bit card produced from symbol outline with certain size and output resolution when symbol outline is converted during scanning. Output symbol is extracted. Symbol belonging to symbol semantic classification is defined and hinting instructions are addressed that are associated with symbol semantic classification. Hinting instruction stores symbol semantic meaning and, at the same time, varying dash availability and position or both for at least one dash of at least one attribute of symbol proceeding from basic sizes and output resolution of symbol. If actual symbol size and output resolution do not fall beyond basic size and output resolution for hinting instruction, then the latter is executed.
EFFECT: improved eligibility of scaled symbol bit card.
