Make Your Own Fonts, In a Web Browser

Dekortage writes "Although it's been up for a few weeks, today is the official launch of FontStruct, a web-based font creation tool. That's right: in your web browser, you can build your own typeface, and download it as a TrueType font. The site's user agreement requires you to release your creations online under one of the Creative Commons licenses. The typefaces tend to be a little blocky, but it's still impressive (and a great way to pass time)."

creating a typeface that is actually in this day and age when the Internet goes beyond North America and Western European countries requires wide Unicode coverage Why would I need to create glyphs for Chinese characters if I'm not selling my product in Japan, China, or Taiwan? Or Tamil, if I'm not selling my product in South India?
