    Default Re: Classic Dividers Pi

    I am sorry I have upset you Gary. That was not my intention at all. I stumbled on this thread and saw the remark that the author of the font was unknown. As I knew who was the author I mentioned that and should have left it at that. But I didn't, sorry again.
    The author info is not in the copyright line where it should (of course) be but in the version info line and that is, indeed, confusing.

    On the Decodividers font/dingbat itself, yes, it is a quick and dirty crappy thing with crappy tracing from a crappy low resolution scan and it has numerous errors. Many less important but far too many that are important like contours with direction errors and intersecting coordinates and contours. I did see that you have dealt with quite a lot of those. The down-scaling, however, seems to have added other errors again.

    Have fun

    Hey, it’s all good, kk. I feel we both might have gotten off to a bad start here.
    I think that because the creator has been identified, rather than posting my work on the font, we should provide a direct link, thus.

    I’m removing my version of the typeface, and sooner or later, I’ll post a dividers/devices Pi font based on high-res scans from a Public Domain specimen book. I think they’re interesting enough to bother manually tracing them from scans.
