Fontographer is good software but only in the hands of a seasoned artist. If you are pretty familiar with vector art using Freehand or Illustrator, Fontographer will seem natural. If you are not so fortunate, try this: open up a basic font that’s pretty close to the font you wish to create and modify that. It’s going to be tedious work fashioning each character, so a lot of patience is required.
