Yasutoshi,

for example on this image:
https://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/7/78/%E5%9B%9B-order.gif
one can see that the inner strokes do not rigorously delimit a separate
area.
(The "holes" remain "open". The interior of the Kanji is simply connected.
You can fill it with another color (e.g. with windows' Paint program) using
one single "fill" operation.)
So one has to "simplify" the writing such that the interior strokes touch
the border with each of their extremities.
