Description(English)	This study is designed to develop reconstruction of characters Hiragana in Mincho by visualizing ductus and pressure of original form of Shuei-Mincho (A-OTF Shuei-Mincho StdH).
Description(Native)	多くの明朝体のひらがなは、楷書体として存在しており、漢字の明朝体との調和を保っている。 これはひらがな自体が漢字を崩した草書体に由来するところから、明治以降、多くの明朝体活字が生まれたが、 ひらがなに関しては、それが持つ流麗さ、または可読性をもたせることを優先させていたので、 抑揚のある手書き文字の形、つまり楷書体を明朝体と混在して残したと考えられる。 今回の研究では、秀英明朝初号（A-OTF 秀英初号明朝 Std H）を使い、明朝体「ひらがな」における 運筆と筆圧を軌跡として可視化し、文字の再構築をおこなってみる。
