Abstract

Provided is a method where a background ARGB must not be taken into consideration before a foreground ARGB including TrueType fonts is combined therewith to create a composite image for display on a display device. A common alpha value is made use of in the process of combining the foreground ARGB with the background ARGB to create the composite image.
