I'd like to create an icon font for use in a web application. fontAwesome, Iconic, fontomas are examples of what I'd like to do but I need to use custom icons. I'm not sure where to start. Any help is appreciated. Inkscape is a great free application for creating graphics with vectors (what modern fonts are made of). FontForge is a great free application for creating fonts, and can import SVG (a great free vector

Overview I am generating a four page PDF document in an iPad application that uses a custom font, Trade Gothic. It is embedding correctly into the application, and looks great. However, part of the app is to email the PDF as a leave behind. This sent file displays all font as a default sans type and on a few systems, I received the error Cannot find or create the font 'RVYPRT+TradeGothicLTStd-Light'. Some characters may not display or print correctly. I am generating the PDF using the UIKit Framework. Here is a tutorial that uses the same process: http://www.ioslearner.com/generate-pdf

I am trying to export a list of graphics as separate frames in PDF format in order to then compile a vector SWF animation with the aid of external utility (such as pdf2swf). Unfortunately, some special characters (e.g. Degree sign or triple dots) are corrupted in the exported PDF files. That is also the destiny of all Russian letters. Note that Mathematica rasterises graphics in a list when it is directly exported from Mma to SWF, which yields unsatisfactory results in my case. Is there a way to preserve those letters in exported graphics? Single graphics can be manually edited in a graphics

I'm embedding a font in my app as EmbeddedResource and want to use it in a textbox. AddMemoryFont help says I have to set compatible text rendering to true to use GDI+ so my font can be used, but somehow it just won't display the right font. in Program.cs I explicitly state : Application.SetCompatibleTextRenderingDefault(true); So why is it not working ? Anybody got a clue ? Okay, I figured it out thanks to the interwebs and Google. For future reference, if anybody has this problem, the fix is : after getting your embedded font as a stream, and before calling AddMemoryFont, you have to call

I have a custom font in a UITextField, and I've noticed that when it's accessed (when the keyboard appears), the text shifts down by a very small amount -- maybe a pixel or two or three. (I've no way to measure it, of course, but it's enough for me to notice.) And then when the keyboard is dismissed, it shifts back up again. I've tried clearing the field on editing (which hides the problem of the initial shift down), but it hasn't solved the problem. I've also looked over the various attributes in IB, and tried changing a few, but still the problem persists. I get the same results in the

Background: I have PDF's I am programmatically generating. I need to be able to send the PDF directly to a printer from the server (not through an intermediate application). At the moment I can do all of the above (generate PDF, send to printer), but because the fonts aren't embedded in the PDF the printer is doing font substitution. Why the fonts aren't embedded when generated: I am creating PDF's using SQL Reporting Services 2008. There is a known issue with SQL Reporting Services in that it will not embed fonts (unless a series of requirements are met - http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us
