By using Bézier-splines and rational Bézier-splines, the author discusses the approximation of offset curves. In order to determine the approximating splines, the author presents algorithms for Bézier- splines with G 1 and G 2-continuity, and for rational Bézier-splines with G 1-continuity. An example illustrates the usefulness of the algorithms.
