Fontographer 5 - Testing Out The Program

All the 'horror stories' that I have heard stems from a direct copy from illustrator vectors. Therefore, I will take a different approach. I will export every letterform in EPS form, then import it directly into the Fontographer program:

Once imported as an EPS, this is the screen that I got to. It has the outline and the anchor points clearly marked, and the sidebearings, cap height and baseline are shown clearly through guides around the letterform. The font table below is clear in which letterforms go where, and the importing process is surprisingly simple. So far so good.
