Create Custom Fonts Using Inkscape & FontForge in 2023 (Great for Selling Online!)

In this tutorial, I'll show you how to create a custom SVG font in Inkscape 1.2 and above, then we'll learn how to convert it into TrueType/OpenType (TTF/OTF) using FontForge, a free and open-source font editor. This would be great for anyone wanting to create and sell fonts on an online marketplace, like Etsy!
