Step 2

First thing you'll need is the hardware :

Here are two pieces of specialty software you will need for making fonts :

Adobe Streamline : Converts your grayscale scan into an eps (Encapsulated Post Script) file which you can open and edit in Illustrator.
Macromedia Fontographer: This is the program that makes fonts.

Also, you should be somewhat familiar with the following software :

Adobe Photoshop : Use this to scan your artwork in and clean it up if you want.
Adobe Illustrator : Used as a clipboard for importing your outlines into Fontographer.

Got all that? Great! Let's draw the alphabet in the next step...
