    Make your vertical guide first, UNLOCK the guides, then copy your pages. Have your page selected when you make the guides and they will only show on the page. Also, you should use the align and distribute tools. I'm pulling my hair out watching this!

    Very nice video, great help. I wonder if you can help with an issue I had though. After installing the font it works in Word but not in Illustrator - when validating it did give some issues but I ignored them. Do you know what it may be? Or is to too broad to know without looking at it? Thanks!

    For the horizontal kerning section, are there any specific characters that require it or it all depends on the design?

    Thanks for the tutorial! Do you know how one can add other non-latin alphabets into FontForge? For example, if I want to create a font for one of the Chinese characters or one of the Greek letters, how can I add it into FontForge?

    A tutorial is something other than letting viewers watch a cursor flipping around on the screen while you play the piano. It kind of involves 'tutoring' - i.e. explaining what you're doing/what is happening. Nice music tho'.
