FontMachine 1.05

With FontMachine you can take a plain font and make it shine with powerful graphical effects such as textures, borders, bevels etc. FontMachine saves fonts with the standard Amiga ColorFont format. This makes simple the use of FontMachine fonts in any Amiga program. Create your very own fonts NOW !

FontMachine is a program in order to create characters for Desk Top Video or other applications which need special characters.
It is based on an easy to use and intuitive interface. The generation of fonts upto 256 colours in the AMIGA ColourFont format is done by using the numerous graphical operators, which can be applied directly to the font in the desired size.
The base font can be AmigaFont, Agfa CompuGraphic Font or ColourFont, without limits regarding the size (they will be rescaled automatically). There are many graphicals operators available and can be applied all at the same time without any limits.
It is possible to add borders of any type, reliefs, shadow and you can even add anti-aliasing, which enhances the quality of the fonts. In addition to this you can use up to two images (datatypes are supported), for creating the border and the front of the font.

FontMachine can create textures like sky, ocean, flames, stormes, gold, satin designed to be personalized and totally automatically. The colours of the textures are recalculated automatically (Floyd-Steinberg and Random are also available) in order to adapt their palettes to font. The user keeps control of all actions by looking at the preview window.

Once you have defined a style, you can save it and add it to any other font. FontMachine will recalcutate and generate the new font automatically.
