Roadblock With Fontforge Download
I got my hopes high for nothing because my Anti-Virus software (Norton) won't let me download FontForge. Bummer.
Is anyone else having this issue? Here's what Norton says about FontForge:
According to Norton:
Threat Type: Insight Network Threat. There are many indications that this file is untrustworthy and therefore not safe.
I can't believe this. Can anyone point me to a free font designer that's safe to use on Windows?
For those interested in the FontForge designer, which seems quite robust, check it out here: FontForge
I'd appreciate any feedback if you can download it or not or if I need to turn off my antivirus for this download and it would be safe anyway. Good luck.
Meanwhile, I'll put down my virtual Smith & Wesson for now as my search continues for a good font designer comparable to FontForge that's Open Source and safe to use.
Hasta la vista... baby.
