Your idea just stimulates people to flood the internet with ugly, “faulty” fonts.

Instead of adding thousands of shapes, gives us a few standard vector tools or try to come up with a new intuitive interface and way of adjusting vector lines and shapes.

[Q1]: It depends on the FontStruction. Fonts made with FontStruct can be made to work well in specific sizes on the screen – take a look at fonts categorized as “Pixel Optimized”, and at the pixel size recommended in the readme file contained in each download.

[Q2]: FontShop offers the FontStruct platform, but rights to all FontStructions displayed on this website belong to their individual designers. Every public FontStruction comes with a Creative Commons license that tells you what you can and what you can’t do with the font file. If your project involves commercial use, I suggest you to either choose a FontStruction that allows such use, or to acquire a proper commercial license directly from the designer.

If you have more questions just send me an email.

I hesitate because while nonVector fonting has the great advantage of being plausible for the layperson, it tends to degrade at small sizes like 9pt (or even 12pt depending).

QUESTIONS:

[Q1] Do FontStruct fonts still render crisply at small sizes?

[Q2] If I purchase a FontStruct font, do I get the “source code” that I can modify and then use for my own use?
My use might include usage in a book that I publish and sell; but it would not include me selling the modified version of the font itself.

Thank you.
