Check out the first make-your-own-type experiment from YourFonts.com! Kinda rough and chewey but still fun.

so, you can load this into fontexplorer and type it in, say, illustrator and then do create outlines?

I don't have Fontexplorer... just turned it on in FontBook. Then type it up within any program! And yes, create outlines if you want.

There are all kinds of beautiful vintage typefaces I've got as clip art from Dover. I'm thinking of scanning them into the template and then having then available for keystroking. BUT that would mean I'd have to find extra time on my hands.

Fuck. I wish I could purchase time. I wish there were at least three copies of myself to do all the things on my list I want to try.
