    hellow
    I was trying to put indyfont into action
    I downloaded it. When I tried to run it from the user script pannel
    The window that opened didn’t allow me to press “ok”

    I wish I could attach here a screen photo to show you the problem.

    What is the problem?

    Thank you

    You need to give it some characters to create first. That’s probably the issue here.

    On Marc Autret’s site you can download the manual (https://www.indiscripts.com/post/2013/05/indyfont-1-1-public-pro-release-and-users-guide).

    Wait a minute. The latest demo version doesn’t have an “OK” button, it’s called “Create” instead (but you still can’t press it until you enter some characters to create).

    Make sure you download the latest version, also from that same site.

    Thank you for your reply
    What am I suppose to choose in the characters window?

    And
    Can I change my password in this site?

    Thanx

    I choose in the character something just so that the create button will work
    I gave the font a name
    I double clicked the script and an indesign file was opened with many many pages (why?)
    I pasted an heart shape on page 2, in the left side of the page
    I double clicked the script so that I could save the font
    and it started up a new font again (it didnt save me), why?

    Thank you

    Probably because you asked for it? Please see the manual on how to enter character ranges. If you entered something like ‘A..Z’, IF will create 26 pages. If you entered something else, such as ‘!..~’, you will get something like 90 pages.

    If you are using the demo, it will only export the very first character, so it’s no use to create an entire font.

    Since I cannot look over your shoulder and see what you are doing wrong, can you please

    1. Make sure you are trying with the latest version.
    2. Download the manual.
    3. Follow the instructions starting on p. 4, “7. Create your first font” EXACTLY.

    When done properly, you end up with a one-character font.
