You have to do this before you start working. I hope that helps! Nice tutorial thanks a lot!

Would you give me any tip on making grunge, complex fonts? I find difficult to render them with FontLab. Do you use another software? Or have any special plugin? Thanks! I loved this!

It's usually between 1-2% of the body (from descender line to ascender line). In FontLab (which uses an em/1000 units), it's usually between 10 and 15 units. @Chris OB
