Here's a shareware program, 31 days free it seems:

And this is freeware:

http://fontforge.sourceforge.net/

 

Did you see those already?

The first one was the one I was using. It was good, but the shareware demo version doesn't let you save anything. I'll look into the second.

Oh no, that's annoying about the sahreware program.

I never worked with this kind of program before... but I read that you can import existing vector images, right?

I can easily create them with inkscape (or so could you) which would save you the time to manually create them with the program...

ill do some research into some more software..im happy to help where i can!

Some symbols may not work, but the most important ones do! :D

It's very nice! The numbers look a little "thicker" (I'm not sure how to explain it) compared to the letters (I know you used another font's letters, that's why) but I really like it! :nice:

Thanks :D

Ooh, nice. :D I have the actual numbers and symbols half done... but then school got in the way up until last week.

 

What program did you use?

^ I used Fontlab's Scanfont for opening the image with the letters and Fontlab studio 5 for putting everything in the right order. Though it took ages because the program is very complex :dizzy:

i love you guys :) making such an incredibly cool font and such

:awesome:

great job!

thanks

Thank you, Thalia!! :kiss:

Ahhhhhhhhh, wonderful job. :heart:

Thank you so much, Thalia! :kiss:

thanks for the font! hopefully we can get the numbers and everything together to create a perfect Prospekt font!:cool:

^ Yes that would be perfect. If someone gets all the symbols and numbers together, I may create another font :D

i can start working on the numbers. i dont know where Space Cadet is on this, but I can certainly try and give it a go.

 

this is way harder than i thought it would be...any help?

Really cool! thanks for the download!

I'm alive! I really am alive, I promise! :P

 

Anywho, been distracted, but it's back to work now. Here's the numbers, symbols within the week (fingers crossed).

 

Sue, could you pretty please biggify these too?

Well go for it if you want to, I guess, but I really want to take a whack at the more or less official Prospekt font myself- I studied a little bit about typesetting when I studied graphic design, and when I cut out these letters I had a specific visioin of how they were supposed to fit together by sitting just above or below the normal boundaries to look more like the original handwriting. Some of the little stylized bits weren't meant to sit flat on the line. Oh, and I've been modifying the embiggened letters to look more like the originals, since vectoring smooths things out that shouldn't be, so there's a whole new set of those...

 

...heh, it never ends, does it?

*snerk* :laugh3:

 

Sorry to laugh, but it usually takes me at least an hour or two per character. The samples are too small for there to be an easy way. Plus a big part of it is modifying the letter in a way that will look more like how we perceive them than a simple tracing. Don't worry, I should be done soonish.

cant wait to see it! maybe before the next coldplay album lol :D

Oh sure do it, I'm an amateur in this, I just somehow managed to get the letters right in their place! :lol: Since you've got more experience in this, I'll let you try first, LOL *hides*

Heh, no experience, just a handful of theory. And if that was a fluke, it was one amazing fluke- you did a great job. Saves me a ton of work figuring out how some of the letters work together.

Thank you for making this. I downloaded it and it's awesome! :thumbsup:

Hi!

 

I've been away and only saw your post now.

 

Here it is :)

 

*bump* how's this coming?

^Sporadically. :tongue:

 

I'm at that awkward 'I've run out of written symbols and now I have to photoshop new ones together to make them belong' stage. Not too many left to do... maybe I'll put an effort in to get through them today if nothing comes up.

*bump* 3 characters left and no time. :tongue:

 

There's a light at the end of the tunnel, and I'm pretty sure it isn't the train this time. :dance:

On second thought, that's some high-quality software you have there... it may turn out to be better if you do it if you're still interested...
