Since we started the Village Download Depot Club in January, we have accumulated over 12 new fonts! Debra put them all in a collection LDV FONT SET 1 - in our store for a great introductory price of $9.95. There are 12 fonts and 3 character sets in this collection. These are all original and can’t be found anywhere else on the internet or elsewhere. Perfect for any project - just copy the font files to your Font folder in Windows or Mac - and viola! You will be able to use all these delightful new fonts in any document you create! Great for scrapbooking or any other project! |
| Now that I have created all these fonts - I have a whole new appreciation for what goes into a font. I get the artwork from artists or do it myself in any of a number of ways. Some are hand written and scanned. Some are designed in Adobe Photoshop (an expensive program)- they must be saved as individual jpg images for each character. Then they are imported into the font creation software (another piece of expensive software) one by one, sizing and spacing adjusted and adjusted and adjusted. Then I export the complete set of characters into a font file and install it on my computer. I test to make sure the spacing is right in a regular document - and create a sample page. Then I have to make a logo and upload all this stuff to the web site etc. The artistic part is almost the easiest part! Though when you consider 26 letters in two cases, and 10 numbers and many other punctuation marks and symbols, it is just plain a lot of work.BE THANKFUL FOR FONTS!!!! What cool forms of expression they can be. More later! Debra |
