thank you so much!

wow..i din't no u can make ur own font with a font program..thats kewl

waitt..those programs are free rite?? i mite downlod but mostly no..cuz i can find nice fonts on www.fonts101.com

They're not programs. The first is a tutorial (which requires somewhat professional software), and the second doesn't seem to work.

That one has a free trial, but is still cheaper than Macromedia's font creation software.

That is a web-based pixel font maker, which you might find useful.

Hidden program in Windows that allows you to do the same things. Although, not everyone has that.

And if you're looking for fonts ...

thnxx && i alreadyy knew the fonts sites that u told me.. (if i were looking for fonts)

i cant find none of
the programs..
[b]Adobe Streamline nor Macromedia Fontographer..

it says that adobe has discontinued its sell
http://www.adobe.com/uk/products/streamline/

I for one usually enjoy using fontlab; http://www.fontlab.com

what would that replace >??
adobe stream line or fontographer??

So I decided to try out Fontlab- it works well, but when I made my font (I drew it & scanned it) the letter spacing was very large. Does anyone know how I can fix this?

hm, I've never had that problem before.
fontlab's web site has a technical support area.

try that?

so in order to make a font you
only need fontlab and a scanner??
