PDF Catalog
I have finished the PDF catalog of our fonts - a download link is available on (almost) every page ;)
Please download it to take a closer look at the details of all our fonts - I am rather proud of the (often) cleaned-up outlines, and the way I have designed and implemented some of the more demanding diacritics :)
The catalog will be updated with every release, so it will always be up-to-date...

The fifth yes!
I'm happy to announce that Derek Vogelpohl - of ShyFonts/ShyFoundry - is now also onboard! :)
He has just recently re-opened a webpage where he offers his free and commercial fonts again, but I asked him if he was interested in my concept. He was, I reworked one of his fonts, sent it to him, and he liked the result - so now I have his huge library of quality font designs available to rework! Yay! Thanks, Derek! :)
(The sample font I made for him will be available very soon ;)

It's summer!
So, please excuse the not-quite-so-weekly updates ;)
I have to enjoy the short summer period we have here...

But I AM busy in the background, working on some new fonts, making some new sample images to show some details AND: I'm working on a PDF catalog for you to download! Here you can REALLY zoom in on the details :)


8th contact email
Well, am I efficient, or what!? ;)
I have made another sample font and sent to yet another designer. So there are potentially 3 more fonts ready for the site - if all the three contacted new font designers want to join me here on CheapProFonts. Fingers crossed. :)

More contacts
The 6th person I tried contacting finally answered - he had been too busy, and is currently on vacation :) Said he'd answer properly later this month...

I have emailed with a 7th person as well, and is currently making a sample of one of his fonts - I'm soooooo hoping he will join me!

I have sendt out our second newsletter, and also did a bit of a redesign on the font pages - so that the images would be more visible. I hope you don't find the pages too overwhelmingly pink now... :D
Summer is here, so I will probably not release as many fonts in the coming months (unless the weather is real bad ;) . Plus I still have a lot of background work to do on the site...

Have a nice summer! :)


More FontStruct
I have spent some more time with FontStruct – this time making a verison of our 21st release Syndrome BRK :)

I did this to spread the word about the large multilingual character sets we offer here, but the FontStruct version is not as good as the Pro version for sale here, of course (the building blocks of FontStruct are just not accurate enough for even this quite modular font).

I have not heard back from the 6th freeware font designer I've contacted... Perhaps he's on an early summer vacation, or his email adress is completely swamped with SPAM... Oh, well - I'll try reaching him again later. In the meantime I'm making another sample for yet another designer, but after that I will make some more fonts for release here :)


6th contact email
I already have a large selection of fonts to choose from when reworking new fonts, but there are some styles missing ;) So I have made another demo font, and sendt an email to another well-known freefont designer.
fingers crossed. :)

Free sample font!
I have refined the font I spent so much time making over at FontStruct - giving it the full CheapProFonts treatment. :) There was actually quite a lot to fix from the FontStruct font: the outline quality was not good, lots of strange artefacts - and the spacing was actually not like the FontStruct preview at all. But as a free fontmaking tool to make a starting point for a modular font it is OK, I guess...

But the reworked Pro version made available here is of course of an excellent quality!

I've decided to make it available as a free download - this way you can download it and check the quality of our fonts, and find out how it works with your language needs and setup. Enjoy!


Background work and... FontStruct!
It's been a while since the last font, but I've been busy. Really! ;)

1) I have made a small "fancy" graphic for every font released so far.

2) I've prepared and sendt our first newsletter, presenting the first 14 fonts, to our subscribers - using a collage of the graphics I made. You can look at the Q1 08 newsletter here.

3) I have spent too much time with FontStruct – a brilliantly fun FREE modular font maker from FontShop :)

But I have started reworking the next font, and it will be ready within a week.


Downtime :(
Well, it was bound to happen sooner or later - the site has been unavailable for a day due to technical problems at my hosting provider.
My apologies to those who tried to access the site during this period.
The site has been up and stable for the first three months, so that's pretty good... I wish they could have solved this downtime a bit faster, though.
Oh, well, here's hoping this will not happen again anytime soon...

A Bold version - for more emphasis!

Enjoy! :)

Wow! It has been 8 years since my last entry! Time flies! This is just a quick note to let you all know this site and its owner is still alive. There are no new fonts being reworked and released at the moment, though - I am too busy with my daytime job and other projects.
