Hello - Am new to this forum; And to Font Creator as well. My first experience with the program was great. Everything went fine, albeit the non-windows-commands make for a lot of “undos” most times.
My problem is this: Before “Font Creator” I created “Fonts” using Autocad, ( to get all the lines straight and parallel), exported same into “Autosketch”; Saved same as a JPEG and opened this in Photoshop. Then I massaged the JPEG using Photoshop and saved each as whatever letter or character they represented. Each one of these JPEG “Characters” ended up as a HUGE file.
So now, using Font Creator I want to use these JPEGS to create a Truetype Font Set, for obvious reasons. So I started out with a brand new “slate”, offed all the character boxes I won’t be using, and started pasting my “old” JPEG characters in their respective slots.
They look GREAT; Size is “perfect”.
But “Test” them and their RH Side is clipped off.
This even though my RH and LH “dotted lines” are spaced one grid line beyond the character, as you can see in the JPEG I posted at http://www.p-b-l.com/support/SilvertoN-N.jpg
There’s got to be a logical explanation for this, but it somehow eludes me. Has anyone out there besides me had this problem ? Ideas on what to do to “fix” it ?
Thanks a bunch !
