HRC4 Posted February 20, 2019 Share Posted February 20, 2019 I have a pdf of a font that I want to create into an actual font that I can type out rather than copying and pasting each individual letter every time. FWIW, the font in question is a custom private entity and not downloadable anywhere, but I will only be using for personal private use for fantasy football leagues that I am in. Any advice on how to proceed would be great. I've already tried FontForge but that seems to be more in depth than I need it to be since I already have the letters individually created. Thanks in advance for any advice. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Htown1141 Posted February 20, 2019 Share Posted February 20, 2019 In fontforge, there is an option to import either an svg or eps file so you don't have to recreate all the letters. Other than that, I know that there are some paid alternatives but I mean, who wants to do that, right? I have a dribbble! Thank you jaha32!

HRC4 Posted February 21, 2019 Author Share Posted February 21, 2019 I messed around with FontForge for a bit. Might have to dig into it more. Thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wyopokes2 Posted February 22, 2019 Share Posted February 22, 2019 I use a free program called BirdFont. It can be a little hard to use at first but you can import SVGs or straight up copy and paste between Illustrator and it. I've made quite a few fonts with it now and it works really well.
