Abstract: this paper. Advantages include a good first step toward typographic scaling (stroke width scales independently of overall scale factor), and preservation of topology at low resolutions (minimum stroke width can be enforced). A chief disadvantage is the lack of experience designing fonts in this paradigm, or building routines to convert from other paradigms. (Update)

Context of citations to this paper:   More

.... the brush size to vary continuously whilst stroking curves [7] without the complication of computing offsets from the curve centreline [24] a property which may be useful for generating Chinese and other brushed characters. The implementation described in this paper covers...
