The Crafting of a Font

My recent client has me making fonts, something I have never done before. I had thought about trying it but I thought it would be too difficult and time consuming. I was really wrong! Making making is really quit interesting. I have enjoyed making fonts so much I am going to start offering the service to my clients. I think it would be very useful for Corporate Identity packages and Logos. By creating an original logo the company would be able to use it on forms, signage, etc.

Here are some links to tutorials for creating your font.
