As you guessed, you can do it simply enough with the existing version of my fed (font editor): copy the font file, you want to use as a starting base, under a new name and load it into the fed. Then just expand the font range using prepend/append buttons. You can also transfer patterns between fonts, one by one, by storing/retrieving them from the buffer - the buffer is 'persistent' in between font reloads. - A bit tedious, I know, but how many fonts are you going to make? And don't forget to *save* your work *every* time before you exit - there are no warnings in version 1.00. Last night I finished the main part of the new version. If I find some time in between tennis and bridge over the weekend, I'll have a go at the font editor, and I'll send the lot to Rob on Monday. Jiri
