AB - <p style="text-align: justify;">Two mathematical models in the context of boundary value problems are
proposed for the geometric design of letters in Times Roman font. We adopt radial
basis function meshless collocation method for numerically solving the two proposed
mathematical models in 2D and 3D. In this paper, Bézier curves play an important
role in the design of the letters. Three examples with simply and multiply-connected
domains in 2D and 3D are presented to demonstrate the visual effect of the letters
in Times Roman font.</p>
