A Chinese multifont recognition system, in which a scanner can input Chinese character pattern data into a recognition system to recognize all characters to complete the chinese input operation. The recognition system can recognize various printed fonts and chinese characters in various sizes. The recognition method is arranged that all the Chinese characters to be recognized are to be put in the system; all the features of a Chinese character are extracted, and stored in a feature data base. Later, any input Chinese character will recognized in accordance with the data base. Since it is a technique of extracting the features of a character pattern, the system can recognize the multifont Chinese characters. If it is necessary to expand the number of characters in the data base established originally, a character feature learning system may be used for storing new characters therein.
