    Understood Gary. To be honest the Mission would receive my donation in any case. Which makes your font a particularly generous gift.

    Thank you Gary, I quite like this font. I will be donating to a memorial bursary fund that is given each year to a graduating student who is going on to study Art and/or Design. I often donate in time and skills, as well.

    I thought I'd let all you kind folks in on the origin of "BOUTON Folks"...

    See, I had to build most of the alphabet, but knowing that the lettering is Lombard style helped me research the appropriate letterforms.

    ...and here's a tip when you get around to designing your own font or two: although it might look obnoxious and conceited on your Font list to see a big, honking "BOUTON" before the typefaces onf mine you've installed, I do this to help you locate a font by author, get it? LINOtype does this, as does Adobe Systems and others.

    My Best,

    Gary

    Thank you Gare. Rest assured that if I use that font I will donate.

    Never give up. You will never fail, but you may find a lot of ways that don't work.
