Good software to make a font?

I did a search here, but the last thing that appears is from 2003.

Anyone know of any good software I can make fonts with? This is my first attempt and I want something free or cheap just to see how I like it.

Thank you!

Here are your options. Note that some commercial applications have a free demo version, but the limitations of the demo can be too big for your needs.

Forge of fonts: open source, free. Not all that easy to use, don't use standard OS user interface controls. Powerful enough and done a lot. A very good choice if you're a technogeeks with lots of time and zero money.

TypeTool: $99, the "low end" tool from the creators of FontLab Studio, same interface etcetera. Probably your best choice if you might want to take seriously, even if it's not terribly easy to use.

FontCreator: $99. They claim massive popularity for her, but I've only heard of one or two people using it in the type community. No comment on the quality or the interface.

Fontographer: $349, relatively easy to use.

FontLab Studio: $649, not so easy to use, but incredibly powerful. The tool used by > 90% of professionals and hardcore font developers.

CorelDraw can technically be used to make the fonts, but I wouldn't bother unless you already have a copy, what makes 'free' your POV. Even then... ick. It's like eating soup with a fork. You can do it... type of.

Kind regards

  • I get a saying of popup, that I need to install software to make sure that my browser is the latest version, but I already have firefox 28.0 and I am bit suspicious.

    In the left column, click Extensions. Then, when in doubt, turn off.

    Typically, a link will appear above at least an extension disabled to restart Firefox. You can complete your work on the tab and click one of the links in the last step.

  • Is this a good software to draw designs of fashion plate

    HI have no computer, only my iPad air2.

    and I would like to draw mode flatdrawings

    What is a good software to use?

    Annelie salvation,

    I think I wrote you with feedback in application (you wrote through the application of the model), but just in case... I think that the draw could work for it. If "mode flat drawings" are what I think they are.

    The only problem, if you have a computer, would export to high resolution, but if this isn't a concern, I think that the tools would be good for what you are doing. There are also sketches Photoshop... it has excellent tools pencil and pen.

  • How to: create a blank document and how to make a font available by editin

    Two questions:

    1: how to create a new PDF document? All I see is to create from an existing document or a scanner. If I created something from scratch, I really load an existing PDF, remove and then start my new document? This is as it seems, that is nuts!

    2: I tried to change the text in a document. I have created no not her, but it is open to editing. The font used in the document is "Arial", a very common font that comes with windows. The font is installed and I use it all the time in other Adobe applications. However, when I try to edit a document using this font, I get a message that "the police is not available for editing" and it substitutes random fonts. Then why is it not available, and how to make it available?

    Thank you!

    I use Adobe Acrobat XI Pro with Adobe Creative Cloud 2014 and Windows 7, all v.11.0.10 were also updated.

    I'll add to it. If you're new to Acrobat, it is possible, that you have the wrong end of things. Acrobat is not a good editor or word processor or a design tool; It does not replace your editor or word processor or your design tool. People do not only from the file > New and start putting stuff on the page. It will be limited, slow, frustrating and annoying.

    People continue to put documents in all the tools they have always and use Acrobat to CONVERT to PDF format. If a change is necessary, no matter how trivial, the original is edited and redone the PDF.

    The Acrobat editing tools must be used when the original is lost and backups have been eaten by termites.

    There are specific reasons for wanting to a blank document, but I hope that these tips will put you in a different direction.

  • How to make the font bigger

    I just bought a Dell computer with a 27-inch screen. I can increase the size of the print in windows, but that seems to have no effect in Firefox.

    All I can find in the pages of your 'how to' is the use of programs, etc. Nothing on the SCREEN.

    How can I make the TEXT bigger so that I could see it on the big screen?

    Thank you very much

    Old lady

    Thank you, crazy

    It turns out that the toolbar in windows 8 is down at the bottom of the screen and hidden. He ended up with alt (not 10, however).

    I don't know how I did it, but I finally found a few addon option that would download and managed to enlarge the font. For Mozilla base pages, at least. Not yet for enamel. However, since internet explore makes any big, I'll just use it for email.

    I do not give up, but I guess that the e-mail program has a clean mind.

    You have been helpful, although I am also not a geek, I don't know what you're talking most of the time.

    Thanks anyway for me to get through this.

  • How to make the font bigger on the items on the web?

    I think it is quite specific. I can't read a lot of articles on the web, because the font is too small. How can I make it bigger?

    Have you tried the Firefox zoom feature? How to use Zoom? How | Firefox help

    If you find that you have to "zoom in" most of the sites, you can set a new standard zoom (default) level for all sites using this add-on: NoSquint. After setting your overall zoom level, you can still adjust the zoom on different sites.

    After the installation of NoSquint, click on the % in the bar of the add-on call site preferences, then click the global settings button, then the zoom tab.

    If you do not have the bar the module displayed, you can click the new tab button ("+") or a box empty bar tab to the right of the item and choose the module bar on the shortcut menu.

    You can experiment with sizes greater than 125%, but I wouldn't not much higher than 150% unless you have a large screen high resolution.

    If there are sites that are still a concern, feel free to post their URLs.

  • good way to make the if-else statements

    I have a question that came to me of some high school students doing the FRC (first robotics competition).

    They wanted to know how to properly write an if-then structure in LabVIEW.  I know there are simple expressions in the range of comparison that would allow me to do this but I want to teach them good coding at the front.  Also, I would code to stay pure and expand expressions on the other.  What do progress recommend users to LabVIEW?  I was thinking all convert table and simply using a while loop with a registry to offset to make the comparison.  I would like to know what you think?

  • Is there something I can do to make text fonts change to 150 permanent or default

    Original title: text size

    Hello

    I increased the font size under 'Customize' of default size 125 to 150, but sometimes it changes the 150 I put 125 that I find difficult to read.

    Is there something I can do to make this change to 150 permanent or default?

    I use Win 7 Pro 64-bit.

    Hello

    Thanks for the reply.

    I suggest you to change the resolution in the display settings and check the results. If there is no change in display settings, there might be a change in which the icons could enlarge himself to adapt to change.

  • Good software for logging/blocking of URLS? PIX 501

    I said the 501 not log web use or allow the Web sites to block? I can see being a problem logging, but I thought I'd be able to block sites by URL or IP.

    If this is not the case, can someone offer me some good third-party programs for the management of the Internet?

    Thank you

    Nolan

    You can just block sites by ip address, but if you need more you must use third-party software.

    the pix support websense and N2H2 (such as SmartFilter) protocols in filter/log http traffic.

    What is the best management software fonts for Windows 7 with automatic activation for CC?

    We ran 5 Fusion (suitcase) for years, but it's SO slow with Adobe CC (worked great with stand-alone software versions before CC versions), but it slows down the PC to a crawl now.

    Font management programs out there that work better with CC + have automatic activation?

    Please search for resolution here or you can post the application to the support of Extensis for Adobe Creative Cloud 2015 - manage ThisFont Management, Digital Asset Management and creation of information

  • How to make typekit fonts appear in temp site BC

    I'm working on a site and added one of the fonts of a kit that I created in Typekit using Dreamweaver. The local site is linked to a temporary site in Business Catalyst. I applied the new font to a part of the text, and I can see it in the local. But when I preview, either directly in British Colombia or Safari and Chrome (I understand DW overview use webkit now anyway) or Firefox / Opera, the new police force makes any. I made sure that I added the JavaScript from the Embed Code as suggested by the Typekit and ensured that my kit in Typekit has localhost and the temporary BC site set up. I also clicked on publish after updating my kit and waited a while before trying the preview. I still can't get it to work. Any suggestions?

    Thanks for the screenshots, Alonso. Typekit fonts load into the page correctly; You can see that the events of fonts are defined "active" in your third screenshot.

    The CSS is currently using the font family name "Grafolita Script support", for example

    section. Hero h1 {}

    font-size: 325%;

    margin-bottom:-10px;

    make-weight: normal;

    line-height: 1em;

    do-family: 'Grafolita Script support;

    }

    There are two updates that you need to make to the police is displayed correctly:

    (1) adds the average weight of the Grafolita Script to your kit.  Now you have the regular weight & "BOLD" included, but no way.

    (2) the family name provided by Typekit is "grafolita-script", with a hyphen.  For later use, you can check the last name of Typekit in the Editor Kit by clicking on the link "Fonts in CSS using" selectors. TYPEKIT | Working with CSS selectors

    The font weight is defined in a rule separate police-weight; the average weight of the Grafolita Script is 600:

    TYPEKIT | With the help of several weights and styles

    If you add 'grafolita-script' to the pile of police everywhere you use the 'Grafolita' Script, the police will load correctly:

    section. Hero h1 {}

    font-size: 325%;

    margin-bottom:-10px;

    make-weight: normal;

    line-height: 1em;

    Police-family: grafolita script, 'Grafolita Script support;

    Police-weight: 600;

    }

    I made the change to the font family name using the tools of web development in Chrome, so you can see that the Grafolita Script is applied to the text.  If please give that a try and let me know if you have any other questions!  Best,

    -liz
