        You just talked of this when I wanted to ask a question: do you know
some font-making software available on the web? I want to create fonts for
my conlangs but I don't know any software for it (I read about one, but it
was too expensive for me).

        I also know that a friend of mine has Metafont (a font-making
programing language TeX and LaTeX uses) with Linux, but he doesn't know how
to use it and We didn't find books. Are there some websites about it?

        Thank you by advance.
