기존의 외곽선 방식을 사용해 폰트의 스타일을 바꾸기 위해서는 제작과 동일한 시간과 비용이 소비된다. 메타폰트는 글자의 뼈대를 펜으로 채우는 방식으로 폰트를 표현하여 펜의 모양만 바꾸어도 글자의 스타일을 쉽게 바꿀 수 있다. 하지만 메타폰트는 프로그래밍 언어로 제공되기 때문에 관련 지식이 없는 폰트 디자이너와 일반 사용자들이 사용하기 어렵다. 따라서 본 논문에서는 한글의 특징을 기반으로 하는 한글 매개변수를 추출하여 메타폰트로 만든 한글 글꼴 생성 프로그램에 적용한 후, GUI를 제공하여 손쉽게 한글 폰트를 편집할 수 있는 메타폰트 편집기를 제안한다.

The purpose of this research is to examine how emotional intelligence has a moderating effect on the relationship between emotional dissonance and job burnout and to investigate a mediating relationship between emotional dissonance and turnover intention through job burnout. To test the hypotheses, moderation analysis, mediation analysis and moderated mediation analysis were performed. Of the 300 self-report questionnaires distributed to hotel employees, 233 usable responses were received and utilized in the final analyses. The results show that emotional dissonance significantly affected job burnout, and job burnout completely mediated the effect of emotional dissonance on turnover intention. Additionally, emotional intelligence moderated the relationship between emotional dissonance and job burnout, suggesting that the emotional dissonance-job burnout relationship was stronger in the low emotional intelligence group than in the high emotional intelligence group. Particularly, emotional intelligence moderated the mediating relationship between emotional dissonance and life style intention via job burnout(moderated mediation effect), indicating that the mediation effect was stronger in the low emotional intelligence group. Therefore, hotel managers should efficiently implement strategies and programs to reduce emotional dissonance and job burnout and enhance emotional intelligence, which lead to lower turnover intention.
