Path synthesis from an algebraic coupler curve, or coupler-curve synthesis, is a classic problem, in which all linkage parameters are to be determined for a given special sextic polynomial. In previous works, it is shown that exact solutions exist for a given coupler curve, which can be found through a combined analytical and geometric approach. In this paper, a method is developed to get all solutions analytically. An example is included to demonstrate the new method.
