Font Creator

I was chatting with one of Corel's employs the other day and asked if we would ever have a font creator for Corel Again, And I was told that there wasn't much interest in designing fonts.....What do you think??? Would it help Corel sell the next ver???

  • There are many font editors/creators already available, from free to low cost, to a bit more expensive. Just how big a market do you think font creation is?

    You can already create fonts in CD, clunky and lacking certian features as it is.

    • Hello Mike; If enough people are interested in the fonts it may be included In CorelDRAW. I Think it would be a big grabber for Corel, While you are setting around you could make ME some fonts that would be different from what you would buy, and they would be FREE if you made them your self.......

      • It would be something akin to the web site creator. Another title the vast majority of people wouldn't use and likely be half-baked just like the web site creator.

        Why in the world would you want that? Wanna make fonts? Download and install one of the free creators and make fonts. Be ready for a learning curve. Or just make fonts in CD.

        Including one in the CD suite wouldn't enhance the suite one bit.

    • Hi George,

      one fun thing to do is try this font creator page that I found. Here's a video tutorial:

      Here's the template - ready to go.

      • Hello Jeff; After talking with someone, and they said it would be possible to make a font creator for Corel if there was enough interest in it.........What you have shown is Very interesting indeed. Ya know if you added it to your site it could build some more interest.... For those that Don't know About Your FREE news Letter about Corel that you would send them and the Macro's that you have available it is a Very Good site. ( Well worth the time to visit.)

        • I've used this, myscriptfont.com for years and love it. I didn't think having no font creator in Corel draw was important until I needed it! I'm making a cookbook for a family who recently lost their mother and they asked if I could recreate their Mom's handwriting. Well, yes of course!......not.

          Just found this tutorial and have NO IDEA why it never occoured to me to put this into Corel Draw before. Thanks Jeff!
