London - freelance work - Font Artist Needed

[sylkro]

Hey guys + girls

first post on the fonts board... usually on AS ones :P ... the company i'm at is in a bit of a situation regarding a project. We've got to translate a site into Polish, but the fonts used in flash don't have polish-specific characters. Is someone available for a chat about how tough it is to add outlines to a font?

If you're free, then there's probably a few days work in it on an EXTREMELY cool project / company and you'll get paid nicely since its gonna save the creative director a coronary.

Preferably, you'd come in but remote work is also a possibility if not London, UK based. The font set is Helvetica Neue, not the lot, just bold and bold-condensed and its only 10-20 characters we need extra.

If you're interested, let us know... this is not a dud post...

Do you need me to create a new font type?
Or just convert Helvetica to path and change the vector of the letterset?
Do you have the linotype licence and for which operating system?
I need a few more details.
I'm 2 hrs on train from London.
Or PM me on here.
