This may be slightly off topic but seeing as how us engravers deal with type quite a bit, I thought I would share this video of how a typeface is created. I actually took a course in school on developing a typeface, very difficult...only made it through a few letters of the alphabet.
The video is sped up about 8x since he put in over 30 hrs of work to create the font, imagine if we could all work @ 8x...sure could get a lot done.
This guy is an amazingly talented graphic designer, I always enjoy looking at his work.
