What is the everything (everyone) is terrible font? It is too bad people aren't posting font names, a few of these are actually cool.

Well, speaking of font games, I just found this today. It's called Kern Type.

Have fun ripping your hair out, OCD people. :v:

Forgot about this. Just did it, 97 out of 100, works for me.

Is there any remotely easy and free-ish way to output from Illustrator and make an actual damnm font file? Everything on the low end of the market looks like "scan your handwiriting for rad font action!" and Fontlab seems way out of my league from both an expertise and cost standpoint.

Not that I'm aware of. You could make the glyphs in Illustrator and assemble them into a font with FontCreator maybe?

All of those names are my real name IRL.

Oh god help. Just bought Univers Com 57 Condensed and Univers Com 47 Light Condensed, but the leading (?) is completely different between the two of them on iOS and it's foul and ugly. :wtf:



solution 1:

mild pain-in-rear end method to fix

solution 2, courtesy of some stack overflow comment somewhere:
Open problem font with http://www.glyphsapp.com/ then export it from the app without changing anything. Magically fixed, apparently. Edit: lol that app is $300

this post seems to explain why exactly ios is being lovely

Almost any font can look sleazy if you dress it up in neon and use it to type out "backdoor college coeds vol 58" or whatever

also that was back when actual artists still existed so you could have them do what they called "hand-letter-ing"
