  • I have text following a curve, but "interior" faces on my font aren't recessed (details in comments).
    So, I'm using the Curves Workbench to Sketch_On_Surface of a revolution, using a custom font (Gutcruncher from dafont.com). Everything is working great, except that when I use the "Fill Faces" and "Thickness" options of "Sketch_On_Surface, the "interior" faces (inside the O and the R) are also extruded. Does anyone have any other ideas for extruding the font, or for recessing these faces? Thanks! - Source: Reddit / 1 day ago
  • Font generation with stable diffusion
    Could this be achievable with stable diffusion? My hangup is that it is trained on such complicated datasets containing real world items, while I want more proper fonts that look like vector images, like something you would find on dafont. - Source: Reddit / 10 days ago
  • How would you search for References for this “Greetings from” Font/Style of Lettering?
    If you want a font - i.e. For digital design - you can check the Script>Caligraphy or Handwritten section over at dafont.com - Or try to ask Sammy Amara himself, as he does all Broilers designs himself AFAIK. - Source: Reddit / 12 days ago
  • Hey guys! I’m planning on doing 2 custom sneakers for my gf and me for our 2nd year anniversary! My plan is to do something like the cpfm custom w reflective lettering for our names. I was wondering where can I get the font for our names since I wanna make it look as clean as possible
    Check out the fonts on dafont.com and then print out a template on paper. - Source: Reddit / 24 days ago
  • Can anyone identify this font? (screenshot from another sub, ignore the content)
    I AM 98% certain it is in the KG family of fonts. It's 4am, and I just played a show, but I feel like I have it on my computer and can look into it more for you after I get some sleep. Go to dafont.com in the meantime, and look up KG -- I suspect you will find it,. - Source: Reddit / about 1 month ago
  • I think you’re gonna like this one. I’ve been taking in all the genuine criticism and hope this goes better.
    I would do a smaller icon of a digitally shaped lemon, use a cleaner font, go to dafontdafont once you choose a slick font style, use a nice yellow and green combo color, and play some loud music while doing this have a Red Bull. Have fun. - Source: Reddit / about 1 month ago
  • Burberry just redesigned, thoughts?
    They picked a shitty typeface from dafont.com. - Source: Reddit / about 2 months ago
  • Is my cleaning company logo tOo muddled?
    So I meant no disrespect by the beginner thing because unfortunately at this point you're kind of back there. I'd say goto dafont.com and find a font you like and match the width and keep trying new fonts til you find something that works without doing the work for you and all. But still why I suggest a graphic designer. If it's in vector which it should be then it would be easy for most even local designer should... - Source: Reddit / about 2 months ago
  • Any guidance on how to create this as an SVG?
    Vectornator is my go-to and it’s totally free. And you can use free fonts from like DaFont.com. - Source: Reddit / about 2 months ago
  • Which Font do you guys prefer? 1 or 2
    You can find free fonts at dafont.com and can even see previews of how your chosen words will look. - Source: Reddit / about 2 months ago
  • Font selection app or web site?
    Dafont.com and 1001fonts.com both allow you to set your example and filter to commercial free ones (dafonts click on themes, choose one, then click on More). - Source: Reddit / 2 months ago
  • Which of these thumbnails are better?
    As Plant Dad mentioned, having words in the thumbnail also helps listeners know what to expect. Create intrigue by using different words from the title. E.g. Title could be "coding one last game before the end of the world" and the thumbnail should say "Coding ASMR" or something similar in a suitable font. I use dafont.com but Google should be able to point you to lots of other resources. - Source: Reddit / about 2 months ago
  • I have many monitors in my game, but they look boring to me. Anyone know of any tricks/shaders to make them stand out more, and look more sci-fi? Using Unity.
    On the more technical aspects make sure you are using TMPRo (if you are not already) and look at sites like dafont.com for examples of different types of fonts. - Source: Reddit / 2 months ago
  • What are the two fonts? The one above that says high school comedy adn the one below that says "the complete series"?
    "The Complete Series" uses a font that is meant to approximate the look & feel of those old Dymo label-maker guns. There are tons of fonts like this out there. Here's a few free ones over at dafont.com to get you started. - Source: Reddit / 2 months ago
  • Would it be possible for someone to make a Klonoa Font?
    I ended up realizing that there is no Klonoa Font. It would be nice if someone tried to make it and make it available to the community; maybe on dafont.com or whatever. - Source: Reddit / 2 months ago
  • Hi everyone. May I ask what font is this? this is from the IG of Dhiman the author. Thank you!
    I suggest checking under the Handwritten section at dafont.com. Just a quick look there I found Hollie's Handwriting, which is pretty close. - Source: Reddit / 3 months ago
  • Photo editing help
    They are likely various different fonts, not hand drawn words. You can find fonts that might either match, or give you a similar look and feel, at places like dafont.com or fontsquirrel.com. - Source: Reddit / 3 months ago
  • Annihilatification - Annihilatification
    I usually use dafont.com but sometimes their fonts are free only for personal usage. I found this specific font on 1001 Fonts! - Source: Reddit / 4 months ago
  • WIP need feedback
    Dafont.com has some stencils you can use to write stuff on the boxes or you can UV map and project some googled images of actual grenade and ammo boxes on the right surfaces. - Source: Reddit / 4 months ago
  • Martha Stewart says...
    We printed directly onto our envelopes using our home printer. We found a script font we liked at dafont.com and with a fair amount of trial and error we had them printed relatively quickly - somewhat smaller guest count helped (invited 100). I am so glad that's how we did it - simple, cheap. Neither of us have good handwriting but we also didn't like how labels looked so this was perfect. - Source: Reddit / 4 months ago
  • Anyone know The Lion and The Cobra font?
    Custom handwritten. Tip: go on dafont.com and just search for hand. - Source: Reddit / 4 months ago
