But Claude, recommending FontForge to an inexperienced Mac user ... if she could at all, only the installation procedure of FontForge ... the separate installation of all these separate modules and then ignoring the extremely steep learning curve of FontForge ... is that a helpful recommendation?

it is only 26 letter, 6 symbols and 10 numbers.

thanks.

Where can I see something?

On Mac:

1 - install XQuartz
2 - install FontForge

See Claude, it should be 'install FontForge'. If FontForge needs another component to be able to run, that component shall be included in the FontForge installation. But then ... Linux. Which sounds like one OS but which isn't.

Important: Ça marche

So you still need two different components to make it work ... which is not how a program should behave.

Ever seen it work on a Mac?

All experienced users was befor inexperienced users.
You juste have to bother.

For me "I'm inexperienced" is not a good reason to say "do it for me".

Hi, Dave Simpson at signdna.Com is looking for someone to assemble vectors into fonts. Contact him if interested. Thanks!

Do you have budget or is it a request for free ?

Dave will pay. Not a fortune but he will.
