Today I was somewhat grouchy: I wanted to continue my works from the day before on my notebook but couldn’t open the Maya 8.5 ASCII files in Maya 8.0 on my ACER portable. I was so annoyed by that fact that I started to code a little application that turns any Maya ASCII-file into a Maya 8.0 compatible ASCII.
This is the last of the three fonts of the Zodiac Killer font series. I now shall be free. From this day on I shall go my ways peacefully again.
Another day, another font. This time it’s another style written by the Cipher Killer Zodiac, when he was a little more same and rational when writing letters. That’s why it’s called Zanity. And I started out with OpenType and custom ligatures for all of you font buffs out there.

I was busy reading “Zodiac” by Robert Graysmith the last week and I am about finishing the book. It’s a very good read and I recommend it, especially when you’re into details in the investigations or details in general. And while looking through Zodiac’s letter and cyphers I felt somehow the urge to make a TrueType font of Zodiac’s handwriting. So here it is.
EDIT: Renamed the Font from Zodiac Cipher ‘69 to Zipher. Sounds slicker and orders alphabetically nicely with all the other Zodiac Killer Fonts I’ve created so far (or will in the future).
