If you don’t find what you need on the Web, and you’ve got some above-average design skills, FontLab makes a great font software package. Create fonts from scratch, convert fonts from various formats and enhance them to meet your requirements, add logos, signatures, or images, and more.
Font Tutorials Looking to create new fonts, without purchasing or learning a new software application? Learn how, using tools you’re already familiar with. For example, Chank (https://www.chank.com/howto/makeafont/) can help you learn to make fonts using Adobe Streamline or Macromedia Fontographer. Or, Divide by Zero (http://fonts.tom7.com/) has tutorials on designing fonts with Photoshop.

If you’re a Windows user, you can access Microsoft’s instructions at http://office2010.microsoft.com/en-us/ access-help/install-a-new-font-on-your-computer-HA001094742. aspx?redir=0.

Chapter 4: Selecting Your Colors The right use of color can significantly enhance your presentation content, evoking emotion in your audience, calling attention to key points, and highlighting important ideas. On the other hand, the wrong combination of hues can actually be distracting or confusing to your attendees. But chances are, you are not an artist – you’re a trainer, a sales person, an entrepreneur, or some other type of professional who possesses little or no savvy when it comes to graphic design. Fortunately, there is plenty of help for you during the color selection process.
