How to Create a Font in Adobe Illustrator

pointless. this is not a font. these are just letters in svg.

In Imagage trace menue / Advance you cand check (ignore white) that way the programe will not recognize white as a shape that has a fill

Well, thats a waste of time. So confusing and why did you do the same thing in different methods over and over yet didn't actually show how to create a working font? Why draw the fonts when you did all that using image trace? What are you actually trying to do here? All you showed us is how to vector the letters.

WHY Dont you REPLY to the issues people who watch your video are having??? Like this one from over a YEAR AGO: "Without info on how to convert .svg files into .ttf or .otf, this tutorial was sadly a dead end for me. It was great to follow to make sure all of my letterforms looked uniform, but I was hoping for a little more." ... it is nice to attempt to help, but ultimately this is NOT a tutorial on creating a font, It is merely one on creating letters for a font.

Hi thank you so much for the tutorial, i just curious enough after i save the file as SVG what should i do in order the tracing become a fully funcional custom fonts? i;m still confused by that point. i hope my message will able reach to you.

why would you do all this work to remove the background and vectorize the photo, if you trace it with a brush at the end?!?! OO

Without info on how to convert .svg files into .ttf or .otf, this tutorial was sadly a dead end for me. It was great to follow to make sure all of my letterforms looked uniform, but I was hoping for a little more.

What size (measurements) should the image file be before we move it from Photoshop to Illustrator? Mine is huge in illustrator.

Ive created all the letters and stuff, but i can't do the image trace for some reason...

Soo much quicker and easier doing this with Corel Draw. There are just too many steps to do this in illustrator.

how can I put the .svg data's into my font collection (mac os x)

Why not check “ignore white” in the image trace palette to avoid picking out all the little white pieces? Also resizing all letters at once makes more sense. Unite before bringing in and you won’t be chasing after missing pieces. So painful to watch you unnecessarily wasting time.

This is a really creative and helpful tutorial. There could be many instances where clients would like to have their own unique font. Thanks for sharing.
