Re: The 30 day free trial offer

Hi Erwin Thank you for your reply. I notice that the price is stated as not including VAT (Value added Tax). I am not certain but I expect that that will mean an extra 20% on a purchase by someone in the United Kingdom. I know that the usual rate is 20% but it is 5% for some things such as energy (g...

The 30 day free trial offer

Hi Erwin

I am discussing fontmaking with someone.

I notice that you have the 30 day free trial offer.

Does that allow someone to export a font at all please?

Maybe just a few characters rather than a whole alphabet or something like that so as to learn?

Best regards,

William

A special purpose font applied to express teletext control characters

I have made a special font using FontCreator. I have used the liga facility to encode some sequences of characters as if they are ligatures so as to produce a way to encode a representation of the control characters of teletext. http://www.users.globalnet.co.uk/~ngo/a_teletext_control_codes_encoding...

Joining two concentric circle contours

I am using FontCreator 8. I have two contours, a large circle clockwise and a smaller circle counterclockwise inside it, so as to produce a wide black ring glyph. I am trying to produce a 90 degree part of such a ring, so as to smoothly join a vertical wide black line to horizontal wide black line b...

Yet fortunately I found from the linked thread that I had emailed to myself, copies of the .fcp project files. So I have recovered the second one, saved it as version 003 ...
