Notice. New forum software under development. It's going to miss a few functions and look a bit ugly for a while, but I'm working on it full time now as the old forum was too unstable. Couple days, all good. If you notice any issues, please contact me.

I've been using TassieJim's FontTweak to make some 44x70 numeric fonts (for my 1.8" TFT display) - absolutely fantastic Jim!
I started off hand drawing them with "mixed" results. I now use PowerPoint to draw any font I want and transfer it to FontTweak for touchup and saving. I wrote the attached one-pager for myself but I'm happy to share it (sorry it is a bit long-winded but it does get there).
I'd be interested to hear what others do??

Here is the explanation2017-04-20_231048_Steps_To_Make_Your_Own_Fonts.pdf and the resulting code is below.

Cheers, Andrew

I am glad you find FontTweak useful.
Your method of making a 'template' is a good idea and your final font looks good.

Hi Jim - much appreciated. Feel free to use(or not), as you wish.
Cheers, Andrew

(You will notice that FontTweak sometimes leaves a few "0"s off the last character (at least it does for me) and very occasionally inserts non-numeric characters - but only in the last character. I'm happy to just add filling "0"s as described.)
