Get a piece of (white) paper and write every single letter down, which you'd like to see in the finished product. This may consist only of the alphabet or you could add the numbers and other signs. The more characters you submit the better. Have a look at your Amiga manual, where you can see the 256 ASCII Set. If you submit all of them, it would be best of course! 1a. Don't use a pen, that will vary the width of the writing. This happened with this font, it's makes it very individual but may look strange in a text. 2. If you don't own a scanner or don't have access to one THEN GOTO 5 3. Scan in the paper. The larger the characters and the better the resolution of the scanner the better the final output will be. 4. Save each character as an IFF/GIF/PCX file and give each file a good filename as a description. Best would be to use the ASCII code, e.g. the 'A' would be saved in '065.iff'. 5. Send me your artwork, either on paper or disk and I'll try to create a nice font out of it. You can also add some nice little graphics. Do whatever you like! If you have created a font yourself already, then why not send it in! --- Ok, here's my address: Daniel Amor Ludwigstr. 124 70197 Stuttgart Germany You can also e-mail it to me: amor@student.un-tuebingen.de
