In order to display text, Windows uses fonts, even if we are talking about program menus, desktop icons and so on. The problem is that some users would like to be able to modify the existing Windows fonts and personalize some of them, by changing the way each letter or number looks like. This is not normally possible when using Windows alone, but if you install TypeTool, you are able to easily modify any font and change each letter separately.
After installing and running the software, you will first need to create a new font from scratch or import an existing one. When creating the new font, the program will display a table containing each font symbol, letter or number. By clicking on any of them, one will be taken to a new interface, in which he will be able to freely draw the shape of that specific character. After doing so, he can just close the editing window and repeat the process with any other character.
After the font has been completely modified, the user can save it in a proprietary format or he can export it to one of the supported font file formats, which can then be imported into Windows.
Pros
It allows you to modify any existing font or create a new one from scratch. Besides that, you can freely customize each font character. Furthermore, modified fonts can be saved in a wide range of formats.
Cons
The program menu may seem a bit complicated at first for some users. Using TypeTool you can easily and quickly customize any Windows font.
