DE font for banners, rosters etc.

Shadowspite · Post by **Shadowspite** » Thu Apr 10, 2003 7:25 pm

I have created a TrueType font file with a large selection of Druchii runes and icons that people can use to print paper banners or even to jazz up their army roster. You can download the zipped file >>HERE<<. Right-click on the link and select 'Save Target As'. When the zip file has downloaded, unpack it and move the unpacked font file into your Windows fonts folder. You can see all the characters available in the picture above. They correspond to your keyboard as follows:

1234567890
qwertyuiop
asdfghjkl;
zxcvbnm,.
!*()
QWERTYUIOP
ASDFGHJKL:
ZXCVBNM?

EDIT (22/10/03): For those of you unable or unwilling to read the whole thread, the above link is no longer active. Go to page 3 to get the up-to-date link (which now gives you another 3 fonts in addition to the one detailed above).

It seems I made a (very small) mistake in the key-map picture. There is another rune (a stylised eye) available using the ' (apostrophe) key.

What seems to be the problem, Sureal? Is it not downloading? Or not installing properly? Or what? Give me some details and I'll see if I can help you sort the problem. "If only I could get it to work" is not really very much to go on...

Anyone who wants the font used for the Druchii.net logo and buttons, you can download it from >>HERE<<.

EDIT: I should point out that I didn't create that one.

Man you did a wicked job on this font

Shadowspite · Post by **Shadowspite** » Mon Apr 14, 2003 9:29 am

Sureal, after you have downloaded the zip file, you have to unpack it. You can't just copy the font file from inside the zip file. Right-click on the zip file and choose 'unpack all' from the menu. Then when you see a dialogue box with a 'view files' checkbox, put a tick in it. It should then give you a window with the unzipped font file in it. Copy that and paste it into your Fonts folder (should be C:/WINDOWS/Fonts/). Let me know if that worked or not (might be best to take it to PM).

The link seems to be not working at the moment

Shadowspite · Post by **Shadowspite** » Thu May 22, 2003 4:27 am

That's because that part of Druchii.net is not back up yet. It should return soon.

Tylx · Post by **Tylx** » Fri May 23, 2003 4:43 pm

Great! Runes are very nice. It works perfect.

Minor note: F and G seems to be the same rune?

!*()

These don't work for me, nor does the capital letters.

The runes are perfect, nice shapes, and very sharp (no pixels showing)
