Re: New Glyph Maker Program

Well done! I am using it a bit, but I can't seem to use any of the curving
functions. Is this intentional, or just a bug?

Also, I was just wondering if your idea of making this into a sort of word
processor would work...?

Subject: New Glyph Maker Program

For use in designing alphabets and pictographic
glyphs.
(Windows)

Download it from
http://piktok.fiziwig.com/linerule.html

The program is not 100% completely complete, but it is
very fuctional as it stands.  It will save a load a
glyph file that can contain as many glyphs as you like
(as long as you don't run out of memory) and it will
trace out those glyphs with a variety of pen points to
create a bitmap version, which can be copied into your
favorite paint program.

It allows 10 different kinds of bezier curves to
connect points within the glyph, yet is very easy and
intuitive to use.

If you need an alphabet or some pictographs, give it a
try.  You can always port the bitmaps into a font
program to make your glyphs into true type fonts as
well.

enjoy.
