Making a font


So, quite frankly, all this hand writing stuff is doing my nut in. Granted, it's all my fault for being so picky with the text, but theres a better way to do this. I remember in the past I somehow made my own font online, so I hoped that I could remember the process. Having that would streamline all this business, creating everything in pencil is taking more than enough time.

The service I used seems to have been taken down, but I did come accross another site called calligraphr, that would allow you to write your letters on a sheet, upload them, and it makes a font from that. Perfect for this seen as I am converting a hand written type.


Here we have it, not too shabby if I don't mind saying. The font is sadly a little patchy in places, Im guessing this has something to do with converting a pixel image in to vectors, something that always results in rough imagery. But I can work with this, It will save me from having to hand write any kickstarter related material, and make for a far more efficient process.
