Software from FontLab 3.0 product line - professional PostScript Type 1 and TrueType
font creator.
ScanFont 3.0 - a new product from the creators of FontLab.
With ScanFont 3.0 you can create a professional looking technically correct digital
font in minutes. If you don't want to create a font, just modify an existing one, you
can edit the characters, add some pictures, and even add your signature. You can draw
whatever you want (on paper clip with real tools or on the computer screen with virtual
tools). Click the mouse button a few times and you're done!
Do you want to reuse the old "bitmap" fonts that you cannot replace with modern
"outline" fonts, like Type 1 or TrueType? ScanFont 3.0 will do that for you. ScanFont
3.0 includes a very precise autotracing algorithm that is designed to work with
characters, so everything that you can print on paper or see on the computer screen in
Windows, you can transform into a high-quality TrueType or PostScript font.
The key features of ScanFont 3.0 are:
- High-quality fully customizable autotracing algorithm especially designed to handle
characters
