Forge the font session is now on fire at Madras Institute of Technology, Chennai. The day one is over and was a wonderful experience for me. A train trip from Palakkad to Chennai with lot of fun, a bike accident sponsored by Amachu and the session for 10+ people, (which includes Kevin!) on fontforge – it was wonderful. All loved font designing and was much eager to learn the idea…


The day1 contained with very basic things, introduction of fontforge, unicode, inkscape and designing and a hands on session to development of font. The next day contains indic font issues, substitution and developement concepts. Will blog after that.
