One of the main advantages of a forum is to search in old messages. Where are the old messages gone?

The old forum is on and working here: http://groups.msn.com/fontlab
We have no plans to move content from the old forum here or to stop old forum. We recommend to use new forum, but it is OK if you stay on the old one.

Hello
This is my first time to join your forum.
Although I was working in Calligraphy, Type Design from about 15 years.
I read your name in the history of Font Lab formation so thought of
writing to you straight.
In 1993 was involve in Indigenous Indian font Designing Software.
(as a Calligrapher Design consultant.) We successfully made a software but
after arrival of Fontographer with new technology we switch over.
From that day i am searching for the company and team to execute few ideas
which are still not implemented.                             
Personally I'm a user of Fontographer but now learning Font Lab.

Can I suggest some Ideas about making Indian font designers life easy?
Is it a right place? or should i write on your personal mail ID? that i don't have.

(just don't want to be disturbing world font designers, technologist's
community for my very specific suggestion about India-a country of 10 scripts
used for 22 official languages.)

I appreciate any ideas on Fontographer. I was the senior tech for FOG when it belonged to Macromedia.

I have worked on many Devanagari and other Indian fonts and I know what a pain it is in FOG. I would think that you would want to use OTF in order to take advantage of the OTF tables for proportional metrics which facilitate Indic scripts and connectors?

Dear users,

since MSN is closing their forums, the old forum
http://groups.msn.com/FontLab/
will be closed soon. Please do not start new topics at the old forum anymore.

We have set up a new forum right here, at
http://forum.fontlab.com/

We are investigating the possibility of archiving the old forum's existing contents and moving it to the new forum.
