Generating your font

Hi all,

Just so you have this in writing, here’s how to get your font ready to hand in—

1.) Complete your font in FontLab (lowercase characters and punctuation) by 2pm today!!

2.) Save as (as you have been doing I presume)

3.) File > Font Info – fill in the blanks (Name, weight, more names…)

4.) File > Generate Font 

5.) Hand in your generated, named font (should be a .ttf file) with the ‘raw’ FontLab file (on a flash drive, and I’ll copy onto my Mac)!

6.) Hand in hand drawn sketches

If you haven’t already done so, begin working on your type specimen poster (11×17″), due Tuesday. The deadline for the poster has been pushed forward 45minutes—to 4.15pm. I (and a number of you) have a final at that time on tuesday. I will be in my office sometime after 2pm on Tuesday, so I won’t be around in the morning to collect your work – your work being a finished type specimen poster, and a cd/flash drive with final pdf files of your projects (Newspaper, spread, poster (2), type specimen poster).

If any of this is unclear, just ask!

Phil
