    Does anyone know if you can create True Type Fonts from a graphic in Paint Shop Pro, like someone did with CorelDraw?

    Duncan,

    While you can scan in and clean up a hand drawn font image in PSP or create the image digitally, you need to export the image into a dedicated font creation application to create the actual typeface.

    To create a font, you need to use an application like Fontographer, FontLab, ScanFont, Softy or CorelDraw, which has a True Type export feature. These applications allow you to set the nodes/kerning etc.

    If you want an example of someone who uses PSP to create fonts, then exports them to Fontographer, check out PizzaDude:
